“We had assembled a small book of photos and notes full of what we wanted in our home on the fairway. And we talked to several people about their custom home building experience. That’s how we found A Perry Homes. What an experience, they took our wish list and made it all work together into a beautiful, inviting home. We’re so proud of the results.”
“We loved this project. The family had very specific ideas about a home that could entertain from front to back, which is a key aspect of living on a golf course. We were able to guide them into an architectural direction that unified the elements into a home that is elegant and bespoke.”
