Chris and I staked THE BEAN FIELD HOUSE the other day to kick off the build. For every new project, we meet you on-site with the preliminary site plan in hand and drive stakes so you can see the views from every direction.
We’ve already mapped out an optimal placement, but this is your moment to make minor adjustments: angling the house a few degrees, shifting it forward or back, or keeping it exactly as planned.
It’s one of my favorite parts of the process. Witnessing a lifetime of saving and planning finally take shape for our homeowners. Grateful to be part of it!
The Bean Field House - Coming SOON
...
No lot? We’ll find it
Have a lot? We’ll prepare it.
