About Peters Custom Homes
Plaza Midwood building is a craft of constraints: narrow lots, historic-district review on parts of the grid, mature canopy, 1920s framing, and neighbors twenty feet away. Peters Custom Homes builds and rebuilds inside those constraints — foundation and structural corrections, rear and second-story additions that keep the street facade honest, and new houses scaled to a bungalow block rather than a suburban cul-de-sac.
How the network works together
The most expensive failures in old-house projects happen at the handoffs — between the purchase decision and the scope, between builder and designer, between the finished house and the systems nobody planned for. These four firms work the same neighborhood and coordinate from the start, which removes most of that friction.
