Custom Homes | Southeast Michigan
A more personal way to build.
Your home should feel distinctly yours. Building it should, too. Kensington Family Homes creates thoughtfully crafted custom homes through a highly personal process built around your vision, your family and the way you want to live.
Built Differently
We don't want to build the most homes. We want to build the right ones, exceptionally well.
Kensington Family Homes is a privately owned custom home builder based in Wixom, Michigan. We've chosen to remain intentionally boutique so every homeowner receives something increasingly rare in new construction: genuine personal attention.
From the first conversation through the final walkthrough, we take the time to understand how you live, what matters to you and what you want your home to become.
This is not mass production. It's your home, thoughtfully brought to life.
Why Kensington
Luxury isn't just what you build. It's how you're treated while building it.
Personal by Design
We intentionally take on a limited number of homes so we can remain closely involved in each one. You'll know who you're working with, and we'll know exactly what matters to you.
Clarity at Every Step
Building a home shouldn't leave you wondering what happens next. Weekly updates keep you informed on progress, upcoming decisions and important milestones throughout construction.
Crafted with Intention
A beautiful home begins long before the finishes go in. We combine thoughtful planning, quality materials, modern building practices and careful craftsmanship to create homes designed for real life.
The Experience
You should enjoy watching your home come together.
Custom building involves hundreds of decisions. Our job is to make those decisions feel clear, organized and exciting rather than overwhelming.
Kensington homeowners receive consistent communication throughout construction, including weekly progress updates and three meaningful orientations designed to help you understand your home, its craftsmanship and what comes next.

Meet the Founder
A builder who believes the experience matters as much as the finished home.
Kensington Family Homes was founded by Julie Stapleton around a simple idea: building a home should feel personal.
After building a career in the housing industry, Julie saw an opportunity to create something more intentional. A company where growth wasn't measured by how many homes could be built, but by the quality of the homes, relationships and experiences created along the way.
Let's build a home that feels like yours from the very beginning.
Tell us what you're envisioning. We'd love to learn about your plans, your property and what home means to you.
