Testimonials

"We were fortunate to purchase a new Jamestown home and are beneficiaries of their unparalleled vision, fine craftsmanship and luxurious amenities. Most of all, however, we are beneficiaries of establishing a bond and relationship akin to no other home purchase experience we have ever encountered. From day one to now (six months after move-in), the underlying feeling we get from Jamestown is their genuine desire for us to be happy."

"We are 2 busy full time professionals and Jamestown understood our needs and schedule and kept to their word that there would be no surprises. They were kind enough to refer us to great vendors for pools and fences. In the end, we have a fabulous new home and love it so far."

"Overall they did an excellent job. We are very satisfied and we would recommend the builder."

"It took me 5 years to find a builder I could trust. Jamestown provides supreme experience in custom designs and plans. The whole crew went beyond to ensure our home was finished in a timely manner.Job well done on Jamestown! Proven to be superior to other builders. True class act! Thanks Jamestown Estate Homes for your professionalism and hard work!"

"From the moment I stepped into my first Jamestown Estate Home in early 2023, I instantly knew this was the builder for me.After a traumatic home-buying experience in 2015 with another builder in Houston, I did not think I could trust another homebuilder again. Houston is one of the biggest cities in the United States, and homebuilders in this city tend to cut corners and put up homes as fast as possible without worrying about the consequences.To put this into perspective, my previous builder rushed through the initial inspection report, deflected all repairs, and downplayed the severity of the defects of the home. My last home was not built to code, and this resulted in damages totaling over $50K in which the builder’s insurance ultimately had to pay (after a years-long battle). Imagine a brand-new home having rotting foundational beams!This was not the case with Jamestown Estate Homes. Every member of their team went above and beyond to make my home-buying experience smooth and stress-free.My sales consultant was a gem. Her warmth and knowledge were invaluable, guiding me and explaining their company’s process. Darryn Sheppard, the builder, is a true craftsman. His walkthrough showcased the high-quality workmanship, and he promptly addressed every item on my inspection list without fuss. Finally, Victoria Hawes Devenney, the Operations/In-Town Saleswoman, seamlessly managed my offer. Her attention to detail and responsiveness ensured complete satisfaction.Jamestown Estate Homes exceeded my expectations, and this was not an easy task by any means. If you’re in the market to purchase a new home in Houston, I would highly recommend Jamestown Estate Homes."

"My wife and I began looking at newly constructed homes in July 2019, but didn’t find the size or layout we wanted. Jamestown was one of the builders whose homes we toured, and we were impressed with the quality. While touring a Jamestown home, we met Victoria Hawes, one of the principals at Jamestown. From Victoria, we learned of the opportunity to acquire a large lot in the Memorial Villages area and build a custom home to suit our particular needs.Long story short, Jamestown designed and built our new home in about nine months, from foundation to closing. Victoria was very helpful – knowledgeable, patient and very creative. Our construction manager, Mike Prejeant, was awesome, but sadly passed away unexpectedly about five months into construction. We loved Mike, but our new project manager, stepped into the very challenging situation and brought the project home in the final three months. He has been fantastic – very responsive and accommodating our very particular wants and needs, including follow-up after closing. We’re very happy with our new home."

"Greg, I have been meaning to send this note and kept forgetting.  From the start of the process through closing it’s been a pleasure working with you and your team.  We kidded each other in the beginning; this felt like an old famous handshake type arrangement and from my perspective it played out exactly as we hoped and expected.  We love the house, neighborhood and looking forward to this COVID crisis being behind us so we can enjoy some time with our neighbors. Your entire team has been professional and a pleasure to communicate with.  Susan and I haven’t purchased that many homes but this clearly tops the list as the most enjoyable and stress free.  There have been just a couple punch list items and Mike has been great.  His attitude is as if it were his home.  You can tell he genuinely cares and wants what’s right for the homeowner. Just wanted to say thank you and this felt right from the very beginning. "

"We recently moved into our Jamestown custom house and were extremely happy with the entire process. Roughly one year ago we were in our first design meeting with the Jamestown team describing our wants/needs in a new house and here we are now sitting in the house. We were previously able to tour a completed house Jamestown had built and were impressed with the design/quality. During the house design phase Victoria was able to capture everything we asked for and was very easy to work with. It was exciting to see how quickly that discussion turned into a blueprint for our future house.During the home finishing design phase Jessica patiently walked us through the entire process. The number of choices to make regarding paint, floors, light fixtures, fans, doors etc. can be somewhat overwhelming but Jessica was able to keep us on track and simplified the process as we went along. Everything looks great now that it’s all together and a lot of that is owed to Jessica’s design eye and her patience in driving us through the process including meetings/calls whenever needed.Spencer was our construction manager and despite the ongoing pandemic he was able to get the house completed even earlier than we initially expected. He also offered great insight into the final product during the building phase, so we were able to envision the house even when it was just a foundation. He kept us up to date on the progress during the whole project which was appreciated since we were busy with other things during this period, but Spencer made sure to get our input on any decisions that needed to be made. The house looks great now that it’s finished and we’re very happy with how Spencer and his team got everything together.It has also been nice to see how active and connected the Jamestown folks have been with us even now that we have moved into the house. They’re available for any questions/concerns and like the building process have been extremely easy to work with. We’re very happy with the final product and have nothing but good things to say about the Jamestown team. While we’re hopefully staying here a long time, we wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Jamestown to others looking to build."

"Jamestown Estate Homes (JEH) just completed construction on our dream home in Oak Forest. We stumbled upon a JEH open house in mid-February 2019 and JEH completed our amazing new home on one of their available lots only 10 months later. Their team focuses on quality and client satisfaction and we could not be happier with the finished product.We heard that building a custom home would be extremely stressful, but we can honestly say that the entire process, from our first design meeting to closing was smooth and as stress free as possible. We first met with Victoria Hawes in February 2019 to discuss the construction of a new home that modified a few things from an existing floor plan. Victoria seamlessly integrated our preferences into what was already a beautiful floor plan in a functional and cost-effective manner. In addition general layout issues, Victoria spent quite a bit of time with us making sure we addressed little items, like locations of lights and electrical outlets, that could have big day to day impacts after move-in.Once we got our permit, our construction manager, Spencer Sledge, and selections coordinator, Jessica Staten, took over. Jessica is a new addition to JEH who helped us make at least one million and one decisions. This is our fourth home and we thought we knew what we were getting into since we had previously bought a new build townhome. For that home, we were able to make design choices, but this was an entirely different experience. For the townhome, we had a few options and each option had a price-point. With Jamestown, they provide an allowance in your budget and you can choose almost anything within the wide world of construction materials. It is both overwhelming and very exciting. Jessica steered us in the right direction to make selections that were both in our budget and our style profile. She comes with a vast wealth of knowledge on range of style, vendors and quality of materials.We actually came in under budget and didn’t compromise on the quality or choice of our final selections. Jessica was a great resource and through the building process she was both a consultant and therapist as she would help me overcome second guessing on my decisions right before installation. JEH is currently building their own design center and I can’t wait to see it!Spencer Sledge was our day to day point of contact on the construction of the house. He worked his tail off to keep everything moving quickly and was on top of every detail in the home. Due to rainy summer weather in Houston, we were a few weeks behind schedule with the foundation, but he was able to catch up on time and get us in the house earlier than we expected. Spencer was available at our convenience for walk throughs and answered all of our questions on a timely basis. Toward the end of construction once we knew a year end move as possible, he kept things moving to make sure we were able to move in before we had to get back to work after New Years. Even the first few days after we moved in, Spencer was available to quickly answer questions about the home to help us with the moving process.All in all, working with JEH and their team was a pleasure and we give them our highest recommendation to anyone wanting to build a custom home in the Houston area."

"We had a wonderful experience working with Jamestown Estate Homes. Words cannot express how happy we are with our custom built home. This was the first time we had been involved in the building process and everyone was very caring, patient and responsive to all of our questions.We could not be happier with the high quality standards, close oversight, and communications during the construction process. Everyone was friendly, helpful and generous with their time.If we had to do again, we would choose Jamestown Estate Homes to build our forever home!"

"Soon it will be a year since we bought our home from Jamestown Estate Homes and it has been an enormously rewarding experience.  The house was completely built when we first visited it, but we appreciated the level of detail and the quality of the construction.  Appliances and design choices were the right fit for us.  Working with the JEH team throughout the closing process was great and we could tell the genuine joy that they have in their business.  In the months since we moved in, we have had very few, minor issues and they have taken care of in an expeditious and reliable way; a big shout-out to Spencer for his responsiveness and professionalism.  We highly recommend Jamestown Estate Homes."

"The Jamestown Estate Homes team (Cathy, Mike, and Victoria) were amazing to work with: providing a quality home with great service delivery. We started looking for a home in July and worked closely with Cathy who ensured we were satisfied with the house as it was completed. In addition we were relocating from out of town and Cathy went above and beyond to lend whatever assistance we needed to make the completion of the house as easy as possible. Mike takes pride in building a beautiful house that we are pleased and excited to call home. Victoria monitored the completion of the house and walked us through the details of our finished home as well as has assisted with the punch list and any additional questions we may have. Vickie’s attention to detail, thoroughness and responsiveness is outstanding. We would highly recommend Jamestown to anyone looking for a Fall Creek custom home builder."

"From coordinating our initial ideas, dreams, and wishes in the architectural design to bringing these concepts to life with Mike, the finished product is a beautiful house that our entire family is proud to call home. We took a piece of land, had a vision, and together worked to make this vision a reality. We are thrilled with our new home and look forward to making many happy memories here."

"Jamestown Estate Homes is an excellent home builder that I would highly recommend to anyone in the market for a new build or custom home. My wife and I recently purchased a spec home from Jamestown in Garden Oaks and have been thoroughly impressed by the team’s professionalism, responsiveness, and quality-focused design and build decisions.Regarding build quality, you can immediately tell a difference when walking into a Jamestown home. The attention to detail, quality finishes, and ergonomic home features are readily apparent. Jamestown’s design decisions stand out among other spec builders in our neighborhood (Garden Oaks/Oak Forest), many of whom make questionable aesthetic choices or cut corners on features. At least two of our friends who have since toured the house have remarked, “are you sure this wasn’t a custom home?”Most importantly, the Jamestown team was very easy to work with from initial discussions to punch list items to post-close questions. Victoria and Spencer have consistently gone the extra mile to make sure we were completely happy with the space, including by raising punch list items we didn’t even see ourselves. You can tell they take pride in their work and in upholding Jamestown’s reputation.Jamestown definitely deserves a look if you are in the market for a high quality home. If and when we move again (hopefully not for a long time, ha), I will be giving them a call."

"Jamestown Estate Homes is a great group of folks who are fun to work with, and build a well designed and refined plan. They are professional, smart, experienced, and diligent. When you're considering a high end real estate investment, it is imperative to work with someone with their level of experience and integrity. I have worked with Jamestown Estate Homes many times and will always recommend them to my high end clientele looking for their "forever home". "
