How it works
Our process, step by step
01
Plan and lot match
We walk your lot and identify which base plans actually fit the setbacks, slope, and views.
02
Adaptation and pricing
Structural and layout changes are drawn and priced against a fixed base, so you see what each change costs.
03
Selections
You choose from finish packages with real allowance figures rather than open-ended placeholders.
04
Build and handover
Construction on a published schedule, then inspections, walkthrough, and warranty documents.

Semi-Custom Homes cost in Garden City
Planning ranges for Garden City match the broader Treasure Valley market. As of 2026, semi-custom homes in the Treasure Valley plan between $225 and $300 per finished square foot excluding land. Our published planning-from figure of $425,000 reflects the simplest plans; a common 2,000 square foot home lands between $450,000 and $600,000. The savings against a fully custom build come from design and engineering work that is already complete, not from cheaper construction.
These are planning ranges, not bids. Lot conditions, plan modifications, and finish level move the number, which we confirm with a line-item budget once a plan and lot are matched.
Semi-Custom Homes across Garden City
We build throughout Garden City, tailoring the site plan, foundation design, and elevations to the specific parcel rather than dropping a plan onto it.
As a local team, we plan semi-custom homes that fits the neighborhood and holds its value.
New construction permits and plan review in Ada County
New home construction in Garden City requires a building permit, plan review, and impact fees through Ada County. Residential plan review commonly runs 3 to 6 weeks, and parcels outside municipal service need septic approval through Central District Health and a well permit through the Idaho Department of Water Resources. We build those timelines into your schedule from day one and handle submissions, fees, and inspections as part of the contract.
Our Garden City designs account for the local Treasure Valley climate, including frost depth, snow load, insulation levels, and durable exterior materials.
