Rooted in Legacy, Built For How You Live Today.
At Dark Horse Homes, homebuilding is a discipline shaped over time. With a foundation rooted in generations of experience, we bring together thoughtful craftsmanship, integrated design, and a highly personalized building experience.
We remain intentionally boutique—delivering greater attention to detail and lasting value for families who expect more. The result is a home considered from the very beginning, designed with purpose and built to a higher standard.

If you are looking for a builder that builds the best custom homes, you have found them. When we met with Dark Horse Homes for the first time, we knew without a doubt we had hit the jackpot. They listened to all the things we wanted and executed on each of them. Their attention to detail is like no other. Our house turned out amazing, and we love showing it off to our friends and family.

From start to finish, the Dark Horse Homes team was there to answer any and all of our questions. Each time we went to our house to look around during the building process, it was always clean and moving along. I would highly recommend them.

We worked with Dark Horse on building our home and are pleased with the outcome! One highlight was the full-scale walk-through design early on, which made the design process fun and easier to visualize. We appreciate the team's efforts along the way getting us to the finish line.

We have been in our new Dark Horse home for more than a year now. The quality and high-end finishes in our home make it a very special place to relax, entertain, enjoy and unwind. The beauty and quality construction of our home will endure the test of time, and it’s a joy to drive into the driveway after a hard day's work to rest and regroup. Kris and James were a joy to work with during construction, and even after. They remain our friends to this day and if I ever build another home, there is no question who I would hire to build it. Dark Horse Homes without question.
