In this custom home Budget Basics series we’re looking at examples of custom homes at four different prices per square foot: $250, $300, $350 and $400. In this third installment of the series we’ll take you behind the scenes and let you know what design features are most popular with customers with a budget of around $350 per square foot so can get design ideas for your own custom home. (Each post in this series is simply a guideline. You can always move more dollars around in your budget to make a certain item “fit,” but these examples assume no compromises need to be made.)

For our customers in this price point who love to cook and entertain it’s all about the kitchen. These are usually larger kitchens with plenty of prep space (and even a second prep sink) where the whole family can gather. Custom cabinets, island cooktops, and granite counters are also popular choices to make the kitchen a real show stopper.

With a budget of $350 per square foot you can think big big about the little details that make your house feel like home. Customers in this price range are more likely to include custom wood frame windows, high-end hardwood flooring, and custom interior masonry in their design. Need a little added convenience? One recent customer even installed an elevator!
