1. Gourmet Kitchens Designed to Entertain

The heart of any custom home is the kitchen. Today’s luxury kitchens go beyond granite countertops and stainless appliances. Think double islands, full walk-in pantries, integrated coffee bars, and high-end range hoods that elevate style and function.

Want a custom kitchen design that fits your culinary lifestyle? We tailor every space around the way you live and cook.

“The Catalyst team’s approach to building a new home made the experience enjoyable. The team helped through every phase of the process by being available to answer questions and providing helpful advice. We had purchased several homes but had never built before.
They were there every step of the way, from the initial design to the finishing touches to listen and advise us. Their ability to listen and incorporate our tastes into our new house ensured a fabulous final product.
If you are looking for a home builder you can trust and who will always have your best interest in mind then choose Catalyst.”
