Considered the gateway to the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area, Agoura Hills is a beautiful location in Los Angeles county. It is also home to a wide variety of plant and wildlife species, as well as a thriving music scene.
If you are looking to relocate to this inviting city, here is a list of some of the best custom home builders in Agoura Hills you can work with. These firms bring years of experience building throughout Los Angeles and the surrounding counties.
DEMAR Construction
30555 Canwood Street, Agoura, CA 91301
This two-story home in Studio City houses two beds and two baths behind its sleek exterior. Wood siding accentuates its façade and allows it to blend in with its tree-lined surroundings despite the modern design. Coupled with the contrast of the white walls and black roofing, the home provides a refreshing sight. The metal-railed balcony on the second floor gets a little bit of shade from the understated overhang above it, while the sliding doors and windows still allow natural light to stream in.
DEMAR Construction built this, a firm founded by Demetrio Quevedo and Antonio Lora in 2017 to serve Los Angeles. Quevedo and Lora each bring over 25 years of experience in the industry. The firm carries out all sorts of projects, including new constructions, remodels, additions, and foundation repair and retrofitting.
Superior Home Builders.
6569 Cleomoore Avenue, West Hills, CA 91307
Landscaped front lawns and stone-clad columns line the entry to this single-story home. Half-steps lead up to the dark wood main door and sidelights, which opens to nine-foot-high ceilings in the interior. The open layout features a mix of glass, native hardwood, and tile floors illuminated by recessed lights. French doors lead out to the traditional Latin-style courtyard in the back. The covered patio houses an outdoor grill and dining area. Stone paths weave through the sprawling backyard, where there is also a pool and hot tub.
President and CEO Ron Azulay leads Superior Home Builders, the team behind this home. Established in 2001, the firm serves the Los Angeles metro area. Clients work directly with Azulay alongside the same dedicated crew handling the project from start to finish, ensuring a seamless flow of building towards the guaranteed completion date.
Hunt Custom Construction
5739 Kanan Road, Agoura Hills, CA 91301
White walls, clerestory windows, and wrapping glass sliding doors create an airy atmosphere for this home, fitting for the beach city of Malibu. The wood-beamed great room extends to an outdoor grill space in the back courtyard. A built-in shelf anchors the living room space, with the TV mounted at the center. Some space to dine sits to the right, as well as along the gray-blue base marble-top center kitchen island at the back. Shelf space is built into its right-hand end, just in front of the shiplap barn door to the butler’s pantry. The master bath continues the minimalist theme but doesn’t scrimp on its amenities, with a glass-doored double shower featuring a third central rainshower. A glass balcony sits atop the garage and tool shed.
Matt Hunt had his start in construction helping remodel homes while in college in Missouri. After moving to California, he gained more experience as a carpenter, superintendent, and project manager alongside accomplished builders, architects, and engineers. He obtained his general contractor license and in 2005 established Hunt Custom Construction, the firm behind this home. The dedicated team has since built strong relationships with its clients.
Cobblestone & Vines Custom Designs
28857 Agoura Road, Agoura Hills, CA 91301
The mother-and-daughter duo of Nancy and Shanesa Fath sits at the helm of Cobblestone and Vines Custom Designs, an Agoura Hills-based design-build firm. Nancy opened the company in 2003, building homes with a general contractor license in the state of California. Shanesa came on board as an interior designer in 2016. The pair also runs Chandelier & Tulips, a lifestyle boutique that carries retail fashion pieces as well as home decor and doubles as the firm’s showroom.
Nancy and Shanesa’s dynamic partnership comes into play in this modern Mediterranean home in Agoura Hills. Intricate details can be seen in the soft neutral palette façade. Stone cladding frames the garage, the main entry, and the porch gazebo. Black metalwork continues up the curving staircase. The bathroom’s vessel sink vanity gets a rustic touch in the dark wood cabinets beneath the granite countertop, while beige tiles are set diagonally in the alcove shower wall, painted with a decorative emblem.
52 Star Construction
28741 Aries Street, Agoura Hills, CA 91301
General contractor Mike Azoulay loves being able to turn a simple sketch into a home, as he has for over 15 years in the construction industry. Operating out of Agoura Hills, his firm, 52 Star Construction, caters to all kinds of residential projects, from ground-up new constructions, to kitchen and bathroom remodels, to accessory dwelling unit (ADU)-building. The firm serves homeowners throughout Los Angeles County, whose expectations it often exceeds, finishing projects ahead of schedule and making great recommendations for materials and styles.
52 Star built this new home in Canoga Park with white clapboard siding coating the exterior. Deep blue side shutters and window frames provide a beautiful contrast, matching the roof. Planter boxes on the window sills add more life to these walls. White wood railings enclose the second-floor balconies and white tiles frame the garage door.
JOR Development
31220 La Baya Drive, Suite 105, Westlake Village, CA 91362
Southern California construction industry veteran President John Rocca brings over five decades of building experience to his family-run firm, JOR Development. Established in 1989, JOR specializes in residential construction, whether it be new home-builds, additions, renovations, or remodeling, and is a member of the National Association of the Remodeling Industry (NARI). The firm serves the communities of Agoura Hills, Calabasas, Simi Valley, and the rest of the San Fernando Valley, partnering with American Institute of Architects (AIA) member architects for its design-build work.
Lush landscaping lines the stone path entry to this modern Tuscan home provided by JOR. The stone-clad column housing the arched main door contrasts the white walls of the rest of the structure beneath terracotta roof tiles. Broad windows bring light into the interior, while the garage is sealed by light wood beadboard doors.
Adroit Custom Homes
4607 Lakeview Canyon Road, Westlake Village, CA 91361
Situated on a 10-acre lot in Westlake Village, this hillside home incorporates cedarwood, natural stone, and metal finishes across its timber-frame exterior. It opens to a double-height great room anchored by a massive stone-clad fireplace wall. A wall of windows frames views of the lake, with sliding doors at the base leading out to the backyard area for a closer look. Rich black and brown marble coats the countertops and backsplash in the kitchen, as a classic copper range hood hangs above the range mounted into the center island. Two single-car garage bays join with the structure to form the landscaped courtyard out front.
Michael Owens brings the experience of a developer to building luxury homes with Adroit Custom Homes, the firm behind this Westlake property. Tinkering with Lincoln logs and Legos as a child led to joining the carpenters’ union at 21: Owens had always had the drive to see projects through to the end, feeling unfulfilled working on only a few portions of a build. He began Adroit in 2009 and has since built dream homes for homeowners in Ventura and Los Angeles counties with a turn-around time of 12-14 months.
Mackey Construction & Restoration
5739 Kanan Road, Ste 373, Agoura Hills, CA 91301
A wooden gate opens to the landscaped gravel front yard of this Tuscan-style home in Larchmont. The pristine white walls are interrupted only by the elegant radius windows beneath the terracotta roof tiles. A stone path from the gate leads up to the arched entry front porch and main door. Mackey Construction & Restoration built a matching two-story ADU at the back of the home, by the pool.
President Dana Mackey brings over 35 years of construction experience handling projects ranging up to $15,000,000 to the firm. The Environmental Protection Agency Lead-Certified company specializes in new constructions, additions, remodels, and insurance restorations throughout Los Angeles, operating out of its home base in Agoura Hills. It has also worked on commercial and multi-unit projects.
Cheney Builders
350 North Lantana Street, Camarillo, CA 93010
One of the first structures razed by the Montecito Tea Fire, this home was rebuilt with fire-resistant materials such as insulated concrete form (ICF) blocks on the walls and ember-resistant venting. The exterior is in an earthy brown tone with olive green roofs, blending in with the landscape. The great room sits beneath vaulted ceilings and gets fantastic views through glass walls and the sliding doors facing the sea. Ceiling fans keep the leather-couch living room, six-seater dining area, and rustic wood-cabinet granite-countertop kitchen, cool. The bedrooms are spacious, with their own sitting areas by the window and entryways and balconies keeping them connected to the outdoors. A skylight illuminates the marble-wall recessed tub and glass-doored shower master bath. A covered patio provides a great place to relax and get some air while looking out to the ocean. There’s also a secondary living space fitted with its own kitchenette.
Cheney Builders specializes in building fire-resistant homes throughout Ventura, Santa Barbara, and West Los Angeles Counties. General contractor Shaun Cheney established the firm in 2011 and has since built luxury homes and worked on renovations, room additions, and commercial projects.
