Patrick Long Homes was founded in 2006 on the belief that you deserve more from your homebuilding experience. We believe that integrity, reliability, and trust form the foundation of our business. We also believe that a new home must offer enduring value to truly be a “good deal”.
For years home buyers have had to choose:
“Do I want the organization, efficiency and value that the big ‘merchant’ builders offer;” or, “Do I want the flexibility and personal attention that can only be found at one of the smaller ‘local’ builders?”
At Patrick Long Homes we think we offer the best of both worlds. Having spent nearly a quarter century managing homebuilding operations for regional and national builders we’ve seen the benefits their customers receive from the systems, organization, and efficiencies those builders developed as they grew. We’ve also seen how they limit customer choices to keep things manageable: We know of one large builder who, even today, offers customers their choice of any roof color they want…as long as they want black (and don’t even ask about moving a wall!)...Henry Ford would’ve loved that idea back in 1908, but we think today’s home buyer deserves more.
When we founded this company we asked ourselves: why can’t we put those kinds of systems to work in our company, so we can offer the kind of reliability, consistency and value the big builders do, but do it transparently, behind the scenes, where it won’t get in the way of our relationship with the people who have trusted us with their dreams. That was the basic premise upon which our company was built: to offer ‘big builder’ reliability, consistency, and value with ‘small builder’ care and attention.
We know your home is the foundation for your family's lifestyle, and we honor that philosophy by making sure your new home meets your unique needs. All of our homes are designed with you in mind and reflect the way families and individuals live today. Whatever your stage in life - whether you are a first-time home-buyer, a growing family realizing your dreams, or an active adult seeking freedom from the drudgery of maintaining an older home – we’ll help you to create a home that’s just right for you.
Our Design Philosophy
Have you ever noticed how some homes just feel better… bigger… maybe even bigger than they are; while others seem smaller... even if they contain a lot of “square footage?” We call that difference “Living Big” and it’s the central theme in our design philosophy.
We've been told it's almost as if our homes tap into something extra… a feeling that starts the moment you open the door. It stems from that philosophy: our homes are consciously designed to Live Big. You see, the things you respond to in one of our homes aren't just lucky accidents. They're the result of having spent the last 35+ years studying how people live; how they really use each space, and how the individual spaces relate to one another, in both form and function. Our design process is part art, part science; a unique ingredient in each home we build that enhances its value.
Great Design
Great design isn't measured in square feet on a calculator. It's expressed in volume, and light, and the way a room feels as you enter it. It comes from the imagination. Our process blends the fundamentals of interior design, architecture, engineering, physics, psychology, and sociology to create a home that looks better, and, even more importantly, lives better!
A few Key Elements of our Designs:
If you've spent much time shopping for a new home, you've probably noticed the differences, and now you know why. If you want a home that lives as good as it looks, from a name that’s becoming known for innovative design, don't settle for anything less than a Patrick Long Home.
