You found the land.A lake. A ridge. A view that stops you cold.
Now picture the house.Stone, timber and glass, set low along the shore.
Every stone where the plans put it.One fixed budget. One schedule. One person who answers.
Your home, built exactly as drawn.
Custom mountain modern homes in stone, timber and glass, across Idaho.
Small on purpose.
Six homes a year, never more. Yours gets the whole team.
The four things buyers fear. Answered.
These come from real buyers of custom homes, in their own words. Here is what changes when you build with Larch & Basalt.
-
Will the budget grow?
When it came to change orders, we ended up double over what the estimates were.
Your price is fixed before ground breaks. Allowances come from real quotes, not guesses. You see every dollar online, every week.
-
Will it run late?
Builder vs Client expectations don’t match
You get a schedule with a date for every stage, from the lot to the keys. If a date moves, you hear why the same day.
-
Will the builder go quiet?
Our direct communication with him dropped off about two months in.
One project lead answers your calls, start to finish. A written update with photos lands every Friday.
-
Will they cut corners?
You probably don’t want this huge beautiful shell with cheap looking wood or tile.
Every stone, beam and window is named in writing before you sign. Nothing is swapped without your yes.
From dirt to dusk.
- The lot.Graded, staked and surveyed to the inch.
- The frame.Every beam where the plans put it.
- The finished home.Lit, and ready for you.
Plan your build.
Pick a size, a finish and your lot. Then drag through the months and watch your house go up.
Month 0 ยท Walk the land
Walk the land
You walk your lot with your builder. Views, sun, slope, snow load and access all get measured.
Your price is fixed when you sign. It does not move while the house goes up.
Sample numbers for a demo builder. Your real price is written down at your consult.
Now walk inside.
Stone underfoot, timber overhead, and a wall of glass on the lake. This is what you are building toward.

What owners say after the keys.
We set a budget the first month and we finished on it. Every Friday we got photos and a straight answer. I never once had to chase anybody.
Sample review, Payette Lake
The stone on the chimney is the stone we picked. Not something close. The exact stone.
Sample review, Sun Valley
We built from Seattle and still knew what was going on every week. Moved in on the date they gave us.
