Building custom homes in West Lake Hills & Rollingwood.

West Lake Hills and Rollingwood are their own cities with their own building departments, codes and review boards. The lots are hilly, rocky and full of oaks, and every one of them is different.

What we plan for here

  • Separate city permitting

    Both cities review plans independently of Austin, with their own impervious cover limits, setbacks and tree rules. We map those requirements for your lot before design is locked.

  • Limestone and slope

    Foundations here often mean rock excavation and stepped footings. We get a geotechnical report and a topographic survey before design, not after.

  • Drainage on hillsides

    Water coming down the hill needs somewhere to go that isn't your house. Site drainage, retaining walls and waterproofing below grade are designed as a system.

Every home here gets the same envelope and systems we use everywhere. See how we build.
