About Capstone Custom Homes

Capstone Custom Homes is a small, independent builder serving a select group of communities in and around Austin, TX. As a boutique operation, Capstone takes on a limited number of projects at a time, which allows for a closer relationship between builder and buyer. If you're used to the experience of touring model homes at a large production community, working with Capstone will feel different, and for many buyers, that's a welcome change.

Rather than building dozens of homes simultaneously across a sprawling development, Capstone builds individual homes in established neighborhoods. That means less uncertainty about future phases and more focus on the specific property in front of you. The MLS history for this builder shows homes placed in three distinct communities across two cities, which reflects a deliberate, quality-over-quantity approach to residential construction.

Where Capstone Custom Homes Builds

Capstone has built homes in three communities in the Austin area, each with its own character and appeal.

Valley Lake Hills (Dripping Springs) is where Capstone has the deepest presence, with multiple homes on record in this Texas Hill Country neighborhood. Valley Lake Hills sits west of Austin in Dripping Springs, offering more land and a quieter pace of life while remaining within reach of the city. Capstone's current active listing is located here.

Lake Oak Estates is another community where Capstone has built. There are no active Capstone listings there at this time, but the neighborhood has a track record with this builder. Browse current listings in Lake Oak Estates to see the broader market.

Greenshores is a well-regarded Austin community situated along Lake Austin. Capstone has built in Greenshores, and historical MLS records show a home there that listed at $1,090,000 and sold for $1,005,000. It's a premium location, and Capstone has demonstrated the range to build at that level. See current availability in Greenshores.

Price Range and Home Styles

Capstone Custom Homes doesn't build to a single floor plan or price point. Their current active listing in Valley Lake Hills is priced at $618,000 for a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom home with 2,108 square feet. That works out to roughly $293 per square foot, which is a competitive rate for new construction in the Dripping Springs corridor.

Looking at the full historical record, Capstone has built homes ranging from more modest construction in the mid-$300,000s in Valley Lake Hills to luxury custom work in Greenshores that closed above $1 million. Home sizes in the data range from around 1,565 to 3,930 square feet, with bedroom counts from 3 to 4 and bathroom counts from 2 to 4. That kind of range is exactly what you'd expect from a true custom builder, where each project reflects the buyer's program rather than a standardized plan set.

What to Expect from a Capstone Custom Home

Buying from a boutique custom builder like Capstone is a different process than buying from a national homebuilder. There's no design center with hundreds of pre-packaged options and no team of sales representatives walking you through fixed upgrade menus. Instead, you're likely working with a smaller team that has direct knowledge of every project they've built and a genuine stake in the outcome.

The communities Capstone operates in are established subdivisions with existing infrastructure, so buyers aren't taking on the uncertainty of a raw new development that hasn't proven itself yet. Valley Lake Hills, for example, is a mature neighborhood in Dripping Springs with roads, utilities, and neighboring homes already in place. That context gives a custom build more stability than breaking ground in an unfinished community.

If you're considering a Capstone home, it's worth working with a buyer's agent who knows the Austin new construction market. A good agent can review the builder contract on your behalf, help you understand what's included in the base price versus what costs extra, and represent your interests throughout the transaction at no cost to you as the buyer. The team at Neuhaus Realty Group works with new construction buyers across Austin and the Hill Country and can help you navigate the Capstone purchase process from first showing to closing.
