Nor-Son Custom Builders

As a luxury custom home builder, there are few events as special as gaining a repeat client. To us, knowing our craftsmanship and relationship are monumental enough to bring a client back years after our initial project together is an achievement we hold to the highest standard. Shown here is an example of a repeat client project. First built in 2011, the original home is a beautiful Nantucket-inspired cottage. Fast forward more than a decade later, the client came back to us wanting an outdoor kitchen for their growing family to enjoy. Maximized for entertaining, this space has two cook stations. The left station is a built-in gas grill and smoker with granite backsplash, and the right station is a pizza oven and rotisserie grill under an arched stone opening. To complete this outdoor experience, a sauna and dressing room sit just behind the grill area, and an outdoor spa wrapped in stone overlooks the lake.
