If you’ve found the perfect piece of land, AB Homes can help you turn it into a place you’ll love calling home. Whether it’s a tucked-away property in the rural areas of Suffolk, or it’s a few acres in Isle of Wight that’s been in your family for generations, we specialize in build-on-your-land construction, and it’s something we’ve been doing for years. Whether you already own the land or you’re just starting to plan your build, our team can guide you through the entire process from start to finish. When you build on your land with AB Homes, everything from permits and site prep to foundation work and full construction, is handled under one roof. That means you can focus on the exciting part: your new home.
Pre-Construction
Over the years, we’ve built homes all across the region. This includes Suffolk communities such as Whaleyville, Holland, and Chuckatuck, Isle of Wight towns such as Smithfield, Windsor, and Carrollton, and in rural areas like Ivor, Wakefield, and Carrsville. Every property is different, and that’s what makes what we do so rewarding. Suffolk and Isle of Wight both offer plenty of land options, from wide open fields to wooded hideaways, and we know how to make the most of each property’s unique characteristics.
Our process begins with an initial meeting where we learn about your property, your needs, and your goals. After that, we walk your land with you to understand its unique features and determine the best placement for your home. We look at key details like access, drainage, orientation, and everything required for septic, well, and utilities. It’s all about making sure your home is planned to fit both the land and your priorities. No matter the condition of your land, we’ll evaluate every detail and work up a plan for the perfect location of your new home.
Custom Home Design
We believe your dream home starts with understanding your unique vision and needs. We take the time to listen to what truly matters to you. From your lifestyle and design preferences to your timeline and must-have features, this conversation helps us shape a clear vision of your ideal home.
We have over 15 floor plans to explore, each of which can be fully modified to fit your lifestyle, lot size, and aesthetic preferences. These plans provide a strong foundation for your custom home build and allow for endless personalization. You can expand rooms, add new ones, reimagine the kitchen layout, or even transform the exterior design.
Customization is at the heart of what we do. During the design phase, we work closely with you to discuss each and every detail, ensuring your home reflects both your personality and your budget. You’ll have the opportunity to select from a wide range of finishes, including cabinetry styles, flooring materials, lighting fixtures, and more. Every choice you make helps bring your dream to life in a way that feels truly yours. No two homes are ever alike.
Home Construction
Once all design decisions are finalized, our experienced team puts the plan into action. Construction begins with the utmost care, and our process includes quality control measures at every step to ensure your home meets the highest standards. Transparency and communication are key values for us, and we take pride in making sure every client feels informed and confident throughout the build.
Custom Homes on Your Land
Building in Suffolk, Isle of Wight, and the surrounding areas comes with unique considerations. Many properties rely on well and septic systems instead of city water and sewer, which affects how the home is positioned and what kind of site preparation is required. Fortunately, our team has done this hundreds of times. As an on-your-lot builder in Suffolk and the surrounding cities, we take care of every detail including permits, engineering, health department approvals, and inspections, ensuring everything runs smoothly from the start of construction to the day you move in. When you build on your land with AB Homes, you don’t have to worry about coordinating multiple contractors or managing a complicated process on your own. We make it simple and organized from beginning to end, giving you the peace of mind that comes with working with a trusted local builder.
