Building Excellence Since 2007

Square 1 Homes has been shaping the landscape of the San Francisco Bay Area with custom and spec homes since 2007. Our recent focus on premier locations like Palo Alto, Los Altos, Menlo Park, and Atherton allows us to leverage our in-depth knowledge of local codes and regulations, ensuring each project runs smoothly from start to finish.


Spec Homes: Designing to Delight

We specialize in crafting “Spec Homes,” or speculative homes, built with the goal of attracting new homeowners. Our expertise in this area means we know how to introduce standout design elements that captivate buyers and elevate property value. With close ties to the real estate community, we stay ahead of buyer trends and preferences, helping you make smart investments in features that resonate with the market.


Custom Homes: Bringing Your Vision to Life

Creating a custom home involves countless decisions, from design concepts to the finishing details. At Square 1 Homes, we guide you through each step, ensuring your vision is reflected in every aspect of the build. To make the process seamless, we use BuilderTrend for project management, providing real-time updates and tracking. Our team also leverages Google Workspace to keep clients in the loop with routine photo updates, organized documents, and easy collaboration. With clear communication and meticulous planning, we minimize uncertainties and streamline the entire journey, delivering a home that truly exceeds your expectations.
