Home Front Build

Honoring Tradition, Embracing the Present
At Home Front Build, we look beyond trends. We celebrate the enduring beauty of American architectural vernacular styles like Victorian, Craftsman, Spanish Colonial Revival, Mission Revival, and Mid-Century Modern amongst others. Because these forms speak to a sense of place and belonging. Yet tradition alone does not define what we do. We believe that history lives most vibrantly when it’s integrated into the rhythms of modern life. Rather than rigid preservation, we seek thoughtful reinterpretation: widening a doorway for today’s open floor lifestyle, introducing natural light to reveal original millwork, or blending energy efficient updates seamlessly into time honored details. In every conversation and design decision, we ask: How can we honor the past while enhancing daily life in the present?

An Experience, not a Transaction
What sets Home Front Build apart is our commitment to the human side of renovation and new construction. From that very first coffee meeting when we listen to why a family fell in love with their home’s character to the final walkthrough, we prioritize empathy and collaboration. We invest time in understanding each client’s personal vision: the way light falls through a Craftsman window in the afternoon, the desire to preserve that original red tile roof, or the wish for a welcoming courtyard where future generations might gather. You’ll never feel rushed through choices or guided by a checklist. Instead, we walk beside you, offering ideas that reflect your lifestyle, values, and the stories you want your home to tell.

Tailored Collaboration at Every Step
Our process begins with attentive listening. We ask questions not to fill in a form, but to understand how your family interacts with space, what memories you hope to preserve, and how you envision life in your home five, ten, or twenty years from now. From architectural sketches to interior finishes, every decision is rooted in your unique needs. Our in-house designers and craftsmen work together under one roof, ensuring that no detail whether a custom crafted mantelpiece or a thoughtfully placed window seat ever feels disconnected. This collaborative spirit creates an atmosphere of trust knowing that everyone working at your home is invested in its success, not simply executing a series of tasks.

Creating a Sense of Belonging
We often say that our clients don’t buy and remodel their homes merely as projects; they do so to connect with a living tradition. In neighborhoods like Larchmont, where history whispers from every front porch and mature tree, this desire is particularly strong. Families want to feel rooted, part of a continuum that stretches back decades. When Home Front Buildsteps in, we help you bridge that continuum, infusing authenticity into new spaces without sacrificing the warmth of familiarity. Whether we’re reimagining a sunroom addition, salvaging original millwork, or carving out a modern kitchen that still respects period details, our goal is always the same to create a home that feels as if it has belonged to your family for generations, even as it welcomes what comes next.

A Personal Commitment You Can Feel
When you choose Home Front Build, you’re not simply hiring a contractor or design firm; you’re gaining a partner who cares about your home as much as you do. You’ll find that we’re just as invested in those small moments, your message about wanting a sunlit breakfast nook, or your wish to open a half wall so that grandparents can watch grandchildren splash in the pool. We take pride in exceeding expectations quietly: arriving promptly for site meetings, following up by phone or email on every question, celebrating each small victory alongside you. In the end, our greatest reward is seeing that look of contentment when you step through your front door, knowing your home feels both authentically rooted and thoughtfully imagined.
