At Mountain View Building, we have experience building custom homes on your land, whether you have open farmland, a wooded property, something in the mountainside, or a narrow lot in a neighborhood or town.
Building a custom home on your own land gives you opportunities that you wouldn’t otherwise have from building in a traditional neighborhood development. The right home begins with someone who understands your property first.
At Mountain View Building, the majority of our home projects involve building homes on privately owned land, specifically in the Berks County and Schuylkill County regions, as well as the rest of eastern Pennsylvania. Our approach to building on your land is well-planned, from the initial design and permitting to site preparation and full construction.
Learn about the steps we take in our typical build on your land process.
Every piece of land has its own unique characteristics that alter the building process. Things like the following all affect the way we move forward with building on your land.
Before construction begins, we’ll take the time to thoroughly evaluate your property and list out important things that may have an effect on the design and building process on your land. We pay special attention to working out these details early so that we can stick closely to the build timeline down the road and avoid surprises later on in the process.
We don’t want your home to stick out like a sore thumb. We want it to feel like it truly belongs on your land that we’re building on. During the planning process, we’ll determine the best location for your home based on things like:
All of these decisions can have a big impact on how well your home fits your lifestyle and remains functional over time. We want to help you make the most of the build-on-your-land decision with a home that feels like it belongs.
Building on private land involves much more than just putting the building up. We’ll need to prep your land, both physically and on paper.
Before we hit the ground running with anything, we’ll make sure to gather all the appropriate permits and take time to understand zoning and other building requirements or restrictions with your township, borough, or city.
Then, we’ll do the necessary site preparation before we begin building your structure. This includes:
At Mountain View, we value clarity and clear communication, so we’ll be sure to keep you updated on how things are going with coordinating and preparing for a build on your lot.
We have experience working with a wide variety of property types throughout eastern Pennsylvania, especially since a lot of our work actually takes place on privately-owned land.
