The Beginning
Brown Haven Homes began with a deep respect for people and place. In 2005, our founder, John Allen, met Farmer Brown, who owned land that was more than a property—it was a legacy. Moved by this connection, John started Brown Haven Homes to create homes that feel like home from day one. Locally owned and rooted in family values, we build each home with respect for the land and dedication to the people who live there.
