Asheville, North Carolina
Luxury Custom Home Builder & Architect in Asheville, NC
The Cliffs at Walnut Cove & The Ramble
Many Asheville homesites sit on steep slopes or ridgetops, where local rules limit grading, retaining walls, and where a house can sit. Some lots fall under Buncombe Countyʼs rules and others under the City of Ashevilleʼs, and each sets different limits. Our Asheville team knows which applies to your lot, and that shapes your design from the first site visit.
Have a lot in mind, or still choosing one? We’ll walk it with you and tell you what it can become.















A budget you can actually plan around.
Our Asheville team walks you through costs at every stage, so the budget stays in plain view and you get the best value for every dollar. Your architect is licensed and independent, and an independent quality-control lead checks every phase against what you approved. Itʼs the process behind more than 750 homes across the Carolinas: design, build, dwell, maintain, and a lifelong commitment to our clients.
A few Asheville neighborhoods, communities, and areas where we build.
Design. Build. Dwell. Maintain.
Everything in Perfect Harmony.
Our Design-Build-Dwell-Maintain approach was created to give you peace of mind. Even if you aren’t local, you’ll feel connected to the process. We’re going to care for your new home the same way you do. To us, that means keeping our team on the same page from concept to completion.
Nothing gets lost in translation when our architects, designers, and construction professionals hear the same thing directly from you and work together to make it a reality.
Design
Let’s start by designing your ideal home. Our team of architects/designers, builders and interior designers will translate your ideas into conceptual plans and work with you to perfect them. Once this is all set, we conduct a ‘Fit and Finish’ interview to help set quality, style and costs. After that, we are able to create a very accurate budget locked in with detailed specifications and a design-parti to literally put us all on the same page before entering a design-build contract. From there, we complete the 3D renderings and bring in a host of other experts from our team to work through all critical planning and details before building.
Build
We’ll break ground on your new home and keep you updated on the construction progress through frequent communications as well as through our building app with a live weekly schedule. You’ll work closely with our interior design team on cabinetry, lighting and all other selections, while our construction team manages the extensive quality control process.
Dwell
Most clients take advantage of our team’s expertise and specific knowledge about their home to use Tribus Interior Design to completely furnish and accessorize their home.
Maintain
Once you move in, our build team professionally takes care of all punch or warranty issues. Our Dillard-Jones Renovations & Service team then offers their turn-key maintenance services. From changing air filters, painting or filling the fridge with your favorite foods, our team is prepared to build a life-long relationship by taking care of your needs beyond your finished home.
Idea Home Tours
Virtually tour The Ramble and schedule a private tour of The Cliffs at Walnut Cove. Walk these properties with us, and pay attention to what stays with you. Whether it’s a layout, a material, or the view from a particular room, we’d love to hear what caught your eye and talk through how they can be incorporated into your own build.
