Plan a one-of-one Melissa residence around your homesite, architectural goals and the way your family wants to live.

Melissa properties are often larger and less constrained by community design review than lots in established in-city neighborhoods, which can allow more freedom in siting and outdoor program. Larger or more rural sites may require additional planning for utilities, access and site preparation.
Gutman follows four phases: Define (clarify the property, goals and architectural direction), Develop (coordinate plans, engineering, selections and approvals), Build (manage trades, sequence, communication and quality control), and Complete (inspections, orientation, walkthrough and move-in).
Gutman builds without a fixed aesthetic — modern, transitional and traditional homes are all shaped around the client, the property and its surroundings.
Every new Gutman custom home receives a HERS evaluation, benchmarking the home’s energy performance using the rating methodology maintained by RESNET.
Every new custom home closes with a final walkthrough and systems orientation. Our standard builder warranty includes one year of workmanship coverage, two years of coverage for electrical, mechanical and plumbing systems, and ten years of structural coverage. All warranty coverage is backed by an independent third-party warranty provider.
Whether you already own land, are evaluating a homesite or are beginning with an architectural idea, Gutman can help define the next step.
