Millarville

Rural Garage Suite

A garage suite on a 35-acre acreage in Foothills County: 1,400 sq ft of living space above an oversized double garage and storage, 2,700 sq ft in total. On rural land, the allowable size lets us build what is really a second full home.

On an acreage, we are really building a second full home, without subdividing the land.

01

Discovery & Design

We start with a kitchen-table chat about how you live—family, storage, timing, budget—then walk the site. Let’s all get on the same page about your needs, wants, goals and maybe even a few luxury items? From there, we sketch ideas, set priorities and allowances, and provide a realistic first range and timeline tailored to your property.

02

Scope of work & contracts

We turn the concept into a detailed scope: drawings, specifications, allowances, and milestone schedule. Long-lead items are chosen early to avoid delays. You’ll review pricing in as much detail as you prefer, ask questions, and sign when it feels right. Deposits secure materials; change orders are priced before work shifts—no surprises later.

03

Permitting

Our pre-construction contract provides funding to coordinate with the municipality for any permits required. This allows homeowners to save/invest their capital until permits are approved and construction is beginning. Sometimes it allows for homeowners to coordinate their financing options at the same time as the permit process. No one controls each municipality’s timelines, but we’ll keep you updated every step of the way until that precious approval stamp is received!

04

Construction

We encourage weekly feedback, questions and communication. Changed your mind about something? Just let us know and we’ll figure out the how, the timing, and the pricing, so you can proceed with confidence.

05

Beyond the Build

We walk the home together, create a punch list, and finish the small stuff quickly. You’ll get manuals, labeled shutoffs, and maintenance tips. Our two-year warranty starts at completion, and we’re nearby for questions or tweaks. For new home construction, the Alberta New Home Warranty is registered. The goal is simple: a house that lives easy from day one.
