Talk About Curb Appeal – Custom Home Elevation Styles

First impressions are everything. And your home exterior is no exception. No matter the layout of the interior and the floor plan that suits your needs, we can help craft the aesthetic and finishes that also suit your style. For almost 30 years, we’ve been helping clients across Central Texas and Houston build on their land.

Unsure of what you like best or even what the style is called? Here are some examples and descriptions of popular elevation aesthetics and their typical features. But don’t let this list keep you from thinking outside the box—we’re happy to help you bring your vision to life, whatever that may be.

French Style

For those drawn to timeless elegance, the French-style elevation is perfect. Featuring steep hipped roofs, tall narrow windows, and an inviting arched entryway, this design has classic European charm. Its smooth stucco finish and symmetrical layout add sophistication, while minimalist detailing gives it a modern edge. Our custom options let you blend traditional French elements with a contemporary feel to create a home that’s uniquely yours.

Farmhouse Style

This design combines classic farmhouse charm with modern touches. Key features include steep gabled rooflines and a welcoming porch with slender columns. The vertical board-and-batten siding adds rustic texture, while large windows bring in natural light. Dark-trimmed accents add a contemporary twist, and our customization options let you personalize this timeless style to make it your own.

Modern Style

The modern-style elevation offers a sleek, contemporary look with clean lines and bold architectural features. An asymmetrical layout, flat and angled rooflines, and contrasting materials like dark metal cladding and light brick create a striking profile. Expansive windows fill the home with light, enhancing its minimalist aesthetic. With custom options, clients can make this innovative style uniquely suited to their vision.

Mediterranean Style

Inspired by coastal villas, the Mediterranean-style elevation exudes warmth and luxury. Tile roofs, arched doorways, and stucco walls create a classic, inviting look, while wrought-iron accents add elegance and character. Often featuring courtyards or balconies, this style emphasizes outdoor living and blends beautifully with natural surroundings. Our customizable options allow clients to add personal touches to this relaxed yet sophisticated style, perfect for anyone seeking a resort-like retreat.

Spanish Colonial Style

The Spanish Colonial style combines rustic charm with timeless elegance. Characterized by white stucco walls, red clay tile roofs, and wooden beam accents, this style is rich with Old World appeal. Arched doorways and windows, along with decorative ironwork, add a touch of romance, while courtyards and patios encourage seamless indoor-outdoor living. With our custom options, clients can personalize the Spanish Colonial elevation to create a space that feels both grand and welcoming.
