Building in Saylorville
Lake country.
Saylorville Lake is a reservoir on the Des Moines River just north of the metro, managed by the U.S. Army Corps of Engineers. The land around it, from Johnston and Ankeny to Polk City, offers wooded lots, acreages and beautiful views close to Des Moines.
Wherever your lot is, the process is the same. Our own design team draws every home in-house, and we refine the design with you through each revision. Every home is built for one fixed price, not cost-plus, covering design, permits, site work, the house, finishes, landscaping and pools.
