Here are pics of a few homes I built in Jackson County, Missouri in the early 2000’s. Two separate locations; Osage Springs in the city of Buckner and Four Pillars in the city of Blue Springs. I consistently looked for 3 main features when choosing spec houses to build. Several of the homes are certified Energy Star Homes.
- Front elevation (curb appeal) that made you look twice when driving by.
- Ergonomic floor plans that made for comfortable living.
- House plans that offered a Bonus Room. Usually unused attic space that gets put to good use.
