Local builders team up to offer distinctive, functional design in new construction

The spring home buying season is kicking into high gear, which means that two of Johnson County’s best-kept secrets won’t stay secret for much longer. Since Canyon Ridge opened last spring, an impressive 21 homes have sold. And in Brighton’s Landing, the community’s final phase is underway, giving prospective homeowners limited opportunities to purchase an estate-sized homesite. Thoughtfully appointed floor plans and beautifully built homes are a large part of why both communities have been so popular, the result of dedicated building teams that include Remington Custom Homes.

For Thane Brethour and Dewayne Spiess, co-founders of Remington Custom Homes, the decision to build in these P&L Development communities was an easy one, thanks to two prime locations in the bustling Kansas 10 corridor and a shared emphasis on creating homes that fit homeowners’ needs now and in the future. It’s a concept often referred to as right-sizing, one that ensures homeowners have not only their dream home, but also one that enables optimal enjoyment and relaxation.

With more than 25 years of combined experience in the construction and building industries, there’s no doubt that Remington Custom Homes brings a wealth of knowledge to the business. They’ve also each cultivated two distinct specializations, which together give clients an unmatched range of insight and attention to detail that results in truly spectacular homes.

Thane has a background in photography and design, which he uses to capture the imagination of the perfect home finish to bring to life. With extensive construction experience, Dewayne is skilled at bringing the vision of the design to life with handcrafted care and precision. Together, Remington Custom Homes is focused on delivering exceptional quality that’s exactly what they’d expect to see in their own homes.

“The best part about building is stepping back and seeing what you created,” Dewayne said. “We apply our personal standards to our professional work so that the result is what the homeowner envisioned.”

Thane and Dewayne haven’t only developed a knack for customer interaction; they also work well together. They worked separately as commercial and residential builders, and each dealt with the struggle of finding a good business partner. They soon realized they should work together, and the rest, as they say, is history.

Prospective homeowners interested in seeing Remington Custom Homes in action are encouraged to stop by Canyon Ridge, where Thane and Dewayne are busy putting the final touches on their newly finished model – Villa Verona, as well as new speculative homes in reverse 1 ½-story floor plans. Homes at Canyon Ridge are reverse 1½-story designs priced from $350,000 to $475,000, providing a rare opportunity in this hard-to-find price range for single-standing patio/villa homes in a maintenance-provided community. Additionally, a handful of treed homesites are available for prospective homeowners interested in working with Remington Custom Homes on a custom-built floor plan.

In Canyon Ridge, the Remington team is finishing a new model home, located at 9868 Garden St., that will be open for this year’s Spring Parade of Homes. Home prices in Canyon Ridge range from $350,000 to $475,000.

The fourth and final phase is underway in Brighton’s Landing, giving prospective homeowners just 45 opportunities to purchase an estate-sized homesite that would be the ideal location for any of Remington’s floor plans. Home prices range from $450,000 to $650,000.
