14 Nov 9 Reasons for Building a Custom Home

If you are currently deciding between buying an existing home or building a new luxury home, here are 9 reasons for building a custom home.

1.  Your New Home Design will perfectly fit your needs, preferences, and personality. New home, new memories. In a new custom home build, you can accommodate family needs such as a “home office” designed to meet your work requirement, a “media room” or “kids playroom,”  a “mother-in-law suite,” the perfect “outdoor kitchen with a bbq pit,” or a “spa retreat” master bedroom. Maybe you want a new modern kitchen large enough to entertain or cook for your extended family. Finding the right combination of some or all of these rooms in an existing home can be difficult at best. Having them perfectly match your wishes can likely only be done with a custom home design. With a custom home design, your dream home will be an expression of you, through and through.
2. New Technology. Designing a new, modern home allows for integrating home technology. You decide on whether to include advanced technology like multi-room audio systems, smart appliances, home automation and the like. What’s more, all your appliances are new, so no concerns about aging water heaters or appliances that need to be replaced.
3. The Right Neighborhood for You. Location, Location Location.  You hear this often about commercial real estate. But its no less important to your residence. With a custom home build, you choose the lot where your dream home will be constructed. This allows you to choose a lot that will fit your wish list of a-list schools, desirable neighborhood, stunning view, access to entertainment and dining destinations, or proximity to work. Just as important, you can choose the right lot, in the right neighborhood that can also accommodate the house design that you have in mind.
4. You Define Luxury. in a custom home build, you decide where you want to allocate your money, choosing to invest in the luxury features that matter most to you and your family.
5. A Future Proof Home. Designing a new custom home allows you to consider family planning in your home design. Whether you have a young growing family with changing needs, or you are anticipating taking in older family members at a future time, you can allow for these needs in your house plan.
6. Lower Maintenance Costs. Buying an existing home is a bit of a gamble in this area. Unforeseen maintenance issues like HVAC or roof repairs can arise months or years after the purchase and move in. You really can’t know the scope of maintenance needs until the first year after buying an existing home. With a new home, building materials, appliances and even home furnishings are all new and all come with warranties and guarantees.
7. Opportunity to Work with the Builder of Your Choice. The best part about a custom home build is about choice. You get to decide everything about your dream home build, including who you work with to build it. Choosing a company known for custom home building and working with the best materials and craftsman will ensure that your dream home holds its value for years and years.
8. Personal Assistance through the Build. In your choice of the custom home builder, its important to select a builder that will guide you through the many decisions and choices in completing the design for your dream home. With Devonshire Custom Homes, we will assist you every step of the way.
9. Pride of Ownership. When you put your stamp on the house design for your new custom home, it is truly your dream home. The design, craftsmanship, and style are authentically you. There is nothing quite like showcasing the new custom home that has your fingerprints all over it in housewarming parties or holiday events.
