About Agave Custom Homes

Agave Custom Homes operates as a boutique custom builder, which means each project is essentially a one-off. There are no master-planned communities with model homes or design center appointments. Instead, Agave takes on individual builds site by site, which lets buyers and builders work together on layouts and finishes rather than choosing from a fixed product catalog. That approach is reflected in the range of their MLS history: 18 transactions spanning more than a decade, across six cities, at price points from the high $400s to $2.5 million.

Their focus is primarily on the Hill Country west and southwest of Austin, where large lots, natural terrain, and lake proximity make custom building a popular choice. If you want a home built specifically for a piece of land, rather than a neighborhood where every third house looks the same, a builder like Agave is worth understanding.

Where Agave Custom Homes Builds

Spicewood is clearly Agave's home turf. Of their 18 recorded MLS transactions, 11 are in Spicewood, most of them in the Briarcliff area near Lake Travis. Briarcliff Inc and Briarcliff appear repeatedly across their portfolio, and their build history in these communities goes back to at least 2011. That kind of repeat presence in a single area usually means a builder has developed strong familiarity with the local terrain, permitting environment, and what buyers in that market are looking for.

Beyond Spicewood, Agave has built in Johnson City, where two completed projects include a property in the Pedernales area that closed at $2.5 million in 2021, and a home in Oak Forest that sold in the same year. They have also delivered custom builds in Austin's 78704 zip code, with two closed sales in that neighborhood at $1.45 million and $2.09 million respectively. Additional completed projects appear in Wimberley and Dripping Springs.

Their current active residential listing is a 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home at 3,513 square feet in Kerrville's Comanche Trace community, listed at $1,895,000. They also have an active land listing in Spicewood's Briarcliff Inc area at $155,000, which may be of interest to buyers looking to build.

Price Range and Home Styles

Agave Custom Homes sits firmly in the luxury segment today, though their early Spicewood work in the 2010s covered a broader range. Their most recent closed sale recorded on MLS was a Spicewood home that sold at $1,250,000 in May 2025. The active residential listing in Kerrville is priced at $1,895,000. Looking at their full history, closed prices have ranged from the $270s on an earlier Spicewood home in 2011 to $2.5 million on a large Hill Country estate in Johnson City in 2021.

Home sizes across their portfolio have ranged from around 2,000 square feet on the smaller end to over 3,700 square feet on larger builds. The 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom configuration appears frequently in their more recent projects, with most homes in the 2,600 to 3,700 square foot range. Lot sizes in communities like Briarcliff tend to be generous, which is part of what draws buyers to this corridor in the first place.

What to Expect from an Agave Custom Home

Buying a home from a boutique custom builder is a different experience from buying a production build. Since Agave works project by project rather than within a single development, you're typically either buying a completed custom home already on MLS or working directly with the builder on a new project. Either way, the homes tend to reflect a level of site-specific thought that production builders don't usually apply.

Their Hill Country footprint means most builds are on lots with natural features: rocky outcroppings, oak trees, and the kind of terrain that requires a builder who understands how to work with the land rather than against it. That context matters when evaluating finishes, foundations, and construction costs in areas like Briarcliff or Comanche Trace.

Working with a buyer's agent who knows the custom home landscape in these markets is worth it.
