Modern, elegant, and distinctly Prominent, The Summit and The Mattera offer a first look at two 2026 Parade Homes shaped by clean architectural lines, expansive glass, refined stonework, and a seamless connection between indoor comfort and the surrounding landscape.
The Summit pairs a modern, expansive layout with striking stonework and a strong architectural presence. Its polished design balances scale, texture, and livability in a way that feels elevated and welcoming.

A forever home should hold more than beautiful rooms. It should hold the quiet mornings, milestone celebrations, family dinners, long weekends, and everyday rituals that become part of your story.
At Prominent Homes, we build with that future in mind. Every custom home begins with listening, careful planning, and a clear understanding of how you want to live. From the first consultation to the final walkthrough, our process is designed to help your vision become something lasting, livable, and deeply personal.
Choosing a custom home builder is about more than choosing a contractor. It is about choosing the people who will help shape the place where your family, future, and everyday life will unfold.
Prominent Homes brings a rare combination of design insight, construction experience, local knowledge, and personal guidance to every project.
With Melissa leading design and Kevin overseeing planning and construction, clients benefit from a connected, collaborative experience from concept to completion.
Kevin’s 20+ years in residential and commercial construction bring practical insight, problem-solving, and local expertise to each build.
Most Prominent Homes projects range from $1.5M to $2.5M on average, with custom builds ranging from approximately $800k to $8M+. Every home is tailored to the client, not pulled from a standard template.
We place strong emphasis on structural quality, engineered lumber, high-efficiency insulation, and building practices that support comfort, performance, and long-term value.
Our 2024 Parade Home, Annapurna, received multiple awards, offering a clear reflection of the quality, creativity, and attention to detail clients can expect from Prominent Homes.

From foundation to final finish, Prominent Homes manages construction with precision, communication, and attention to the details that shape a home built to last.
Every custom home begins with a conversation about what matters most: how you want to live, where you want to gather, what you want to see when you wake up, and what kind of future you are building toward.
At Prominent Homes, we help turn those early ideas into a clear path forward, from lot selection and design to planning, structure, and construction. When you are ready to explore what your forever home could become, Kevin and Melissa are ready to begin with you.
