Yes — The Miller. You can walk through each one in our home gallery, floor plan and photos included.
How long does it take to build a custom home in Talking Rock?

Do you build on my lot, or do you have lots in Talking Rock?
Both. We build on land you already own, and we can help you find and evaluate one anywhere in Pickens County — Talking Rock, Jasper and Tate. The site evaluation is free, and we'd rather tell you a lot is a bad buy before you own it.
What does a custom home in Talking Rock cost?
Send us a plan or a sketch and we'll give you a ballpark — typically within about ±5%. What moves the number most in Talking Rock is the lot itself: grading, driveway length, whether you're on well and septic or city utilities. We walk you through all of it before you commit.
Are there building restrictions in Talking Rock?
Talking Rock and Pickens County each have codes, zoning and setback rules, and many neighborhoods add HOA or architectural review on top. We've been through these approvals for 20+ years and handle them for you.
Which Talking Rock neighborhoods do you build in?
We build throughout Talking Rock — established streets, newer developments, and acreage outside town. We also build nearby in Jasper and Tate, so if your search widens we can follow it.
