There’s no doubt that our homebuilder customers prefer the Coval Douglas plan. Offering two variations, the standard single-family and the multi-generation; the Coval Douglas is popular among growing families and empty-nesters. We also see many customers who originally planned on building a custom home opting to build this semi-custom home adding their own customizations to make this plan unique to their family.
How it Started – The Perfect Lot in Gig Harbor
As an ‘On Your Lot’ builder, whenever we see existing structures on a lot it’s typically a good sign showing it can support the demolition and rebuild or the addition of another structure. This is a case of the latter, with a preexisting workshop and garage on the lot. The build area was already cleared of trees and was flat.
