The exceptional curb appeal of a Schell Brothers home is a reflection of the quality and care that goes into the home and a huge source of pride for our homeowners. You don’t need to buy a custom home to get beautiful high-end finishes and awe-inspiring spaces that fit perfectly for how you live.

At Schell Brothers, we use Hardie® fiber cement siding on our homes because it is engineered to withstand tough weather while helping your home maintain its beauty for years to come with minimal maintenance.
That focus on durability and long-term value carries through every part of the home. We developed Schellter™ Advanced Building Science as part of our ongoing commitment to deliver an exceptional home worthy of the Schell Brothers name and reputation.

Our company has a very unique purpose: to maximize happiness rather than profit.
We believe that focusing on the happiness of our employees and homeowners before anything else makes us the best possible versions of ourselves and that much better at what we do. Our culture of happiness and gratitude permeates everything - it’s what keeps us smiling and coming to work each day. Our WHY is happiness. What’s yours?
In the words of our friends and customers - we're building the best communities and lasting friendships. At Schell Brothers, we pride ourselves on creating communities where neighbors become friends. We love that our homeowners take pride in where they live. From community happy hours to activities and clubs, that “Schell family feeling” is fostered in everything they do.
