Houston, a long-known hub for business and culture has become a top market for luxury home buyers seeking to design and build the custom estate homes they have always dreamed of. Our city and its surrounding suburbs are known for their vibrant energy, beautiful landscapes, and diverse opportunities. The ease of access to amenities while still having a spacious, serene home make Houston an ideal location to settle down with your family or downsize as you prepare to enjoy your later years.

If you’ve been thinking about building a custom estate home but your lack of familiarity with the design process makes you anxious, relax. With the combined experience and expertise of our team, building with Jamestown Estate Homes is an exceptionally positive experience our clients remember for the rest of their lives. 

Choosing the Right Neighborhood 

The old adage, “location, location, location” is probably the first thing on your list. Alongside proximity to schools and access to country clubs, the “frontscape” is a part of the design especially for estate homes. A well-designed front yard, with decorative features such as lighting, water features, retaining walls and patios are a part of the lifestyle desire. 

New, urban neighborhoods have brought noise and limited green space with the constant hustle and bustle. These neighborhoods can not offer this charm on a new construction home due to the density present there. Houston’s luxury home buyers are gravitating toward prestigious enclaves like Stallion Lakes, High Meadow Estates, Chambers Creek, Lakeview and Tealpointe Lake Estates. 

It’s a Collaborative Experience

We strive to create a partnership between our team and the buyer. Our priority is to listen, learn, and build whatever clients can imagine. If none of our close to 100 existing plans match what you desire, we will draw you a new one with your vision and needs, no problem! 

We believe the process needs to be collaborative in order to ensure that the final product both exceeds the buyer’s expectations and adheres to our highest standards of quality and craftsmanship, while still keeping the build process simple. 

The Design Process

Luxury homeowners in Houston design homes that reflect both their aesthetic preferences and daily routines. 

Our Design Center offers everything you need to complete your home under one roof. We offer two full-day appointments, if needed and also also arrange for clients to visit our trusted and preferred vendors for additional specialty items they may need.

During every step of the design phase, we want your input. If the suggestions we make don’t fit your vision, do not be afraid to let us know. We offer a starting point. From there, the design of your home can be anything you want it to be.

Choosing Your Home’s Features

As we work together to design your custom estate home, you will have certain ideas about the luxury features you expect. One of the primary benefits of building from scratch is ensuring you get all the features the most important to you. 

Your home should ultimately offer a complete range of features that cater to your lifestyle.

A few examples of luxurious features include oversized living spaces with “fifth wall” features like cathedral ceilings, whole-home smart home systems for full automation of lighting, climate, security and entertainment, outdoor living spaces with summer kitchens and resort-style pools, emergency backup generators, and spacious primary suites offering spa-like luxury can all be yours.

Your Home, Our Experience

Building a custom estate home can be a little intimidating. As the buyer, the finished product is your home. It is your castle, so to speak. It is your own private sanctuary for relaxation, tranquility, and family time.

We bring the necessary experience in both design and building. Our team of experts will walk you through every step of the process, from the moment you sign the contract until the moment you are holding the keys in your hand. Best of all, we will treat you like family.
