Bort Custom Homes

10/12/2026

This Henderson custom home began with a design conversation. As the plans developed, the homeowners chose Bort Custom Homes to build it, too.

The stained spruce beams and alder woodwork are some of our favorite details. The homeowners made room for those finishes in their project budget, and our team helped them choose other products with that priority in mind.

The front exterior of this modern farmhouse has become a favorite of our team. Its black-brick corners hold windows that wrap around the walls and bring natural light inside. During the build, we also found room for a usable loft beneath the roof.
