"Building a custom home is the most complex thing I've ever undertaken. Kenmore made it manageable — one PM I could always reach, honest communication throughout, and the craftsmanship is extraordinary. I'd do it again with them in a heartbeat."
Custom Home Building in Massachusetts — Built Exactly as You Envision It
Ground-up luxury custom homes, designed and built by one team with one point of accountability.
Custom Home Building in Massachusetts — Built Exactly as You Envision It
Building a custom home from the ground up is the most personal construction project you can undertake — and the most complex to execute well. Kenmore Construction Group manages the entire process: site assessment, design coordination, permitting, and construction, with a single PM accountable for every decision.
We work with homeowners across Massachusetts who want a home designed and built specifically for them — not a builder's spec home adapted to their preferences, but something genuinely original.

Design-Build Custom Homes
Our integrated design and construction team works from a single contract — one team, one schedule, no gaps between designer intent and construction reality.
From First Call to Final Walkthrough
Site & Feasibility Analysis
We review the property, assess utilities, evaluate zoning, and confirm buildability. If you're still selecting land, we advise on site considerations before you commit.
Design Development
Architectural design, structural engineering, MEP coordination, and interior design — all developed collaboratively with you before permit submission.
Permitting
Custom homes require building, zoning, electrical, plumbing, HVAC permits, and often historic district or conservation commission reviews. We manage every application.
Construction
Foundation through framing, rough-in through finishes — your dedicated PM is on-site regularly, communicating clearly and proactively throughout.
Closeout & Certificate of Occupancy
All inspections passed, punch list completed, Certificate of Occupancy issued. We walk the home with you before handing over the keys.
What Our Clients Say
"We went through the Historic District Commission in Concord, which added significant complexity. Kenmore managed every aspect of the HDC process — the design, the presentation, the revisions — and the final home honors the town's character while meeting every modern need we had."
