What’s Included in Every Brown Haven Home

At Brown Haven Homes, we design on-your-lot, custom homes with your health, happiness, and security in mind. We want you to love every single feature in your new home, without fretting about "standard" vs. "upgrade." Our standards are other builders' upgrades, and we take great pride in only including the highest quality, most advanced materials and systems on the market. While we do offer options if you'd like a special feature, every home is built to our — and your -— exacting standards. Here's what's included in every Brown Haven home.*
