🏡Missing Middle Housing- what is it?

🏡The Housing Type America Forgot

For decades, housing focus has primarily been apartments or large single-family homes.

But what about:
✔️Cottages
✔️Duplexes
✔️ Small-lot homes
✔️ADUS
✔️Cottage courts

⭐️These housing types help bridge the gap between renting and traditional homeownership. It’s the sweet spot between $100’s- $400s that we build every day. AND we don’t compromise quality for size/price/affordability.

⭐️The path to home ownership is there. In many cases from in house land purchase > development > turn key and always on budget.

Interested in home ownership in an attainable price range? Let’s talk. We have spec homes, land in inventory, and 20 years of experience to share.

🇺🇸Freedom means different things to different people.

This Fourth of July, we’re reminded that for many, freedom is simply having a path and a place to call home.

After Hurricane Helene, one of our clients watched his home be swept into the Toe River. Three months later, after his insurance claim was settled and he sold the lot where his home once stood, he was ready to start over.

Together, we found the right piece of land overlooking the French Broad River and the River Arts District. We evaluated the site, closed just before Christmas, and five months later, he was home again.

“In five months I was in my new home. So happy to be here.”

He was working with a strict budget ($360k) for land + home, funded by his insurance settlement and the proceeds from selling his former lot.

“Compact Cottages put the affordability into Asheville... I could not handle mistakes in the budget process or missteps in construction costs. I have had neither.”

Then came move-in day.

“I stepped out on my upper deck and was astonished... I instantly texted Barry and thanked him for picking me up after Helene and putting me in a Compact Castle.”

Stories like this are why we believe thoughtful design, efficient construction, and attainable housing matter. Sometimes, building a home means helping someone rebuild their life.
