Project Spotlight: A Charming Craftsman Cottage Home


Chad and Lindsay liked their current home and location but it was no longer meeting the needs of their growing family. With another child on the way and an available plot of land near some of their family, they decided it was time to contact a builder.

Through some family connections, Chad and Lindsay reached out to us at Metzler Home Builders to partner with them on their custom home project. When they initially met with us, they already had a completed design in-hand, which was absolutely fine and started us a little further ahead in the design/build process.

As we were working through pricing-out the home, we were introduced to several contractors that Chad and Lindsay (and their family) had previous connections to. While we do have our own preferred vendors and sub-contractors at Metzler Home Builders, we are also open to working with others who are qualified and in the construction trades. In this case, it allowed our customers to get the home of their dreams while still using some contractors that they had existing relationships with.

As construction got underway, it was evident this would be a one-of-a-kind custom home. The beautiful craftsman exterior, custom kitchen, large mud/laundry room and master suite were some of the highlights of this home. Chad and Lindsay also incorporated a few great outdoor living spaces into the project with a beautiful screened porch and a concrete basketball court area in the back yard.

Enjoy the pictures and be inspired for your own custom home or addition / renovation project.
