Custom Home Construction in Ardmore Tennessee
Ardmore sits directly on the Tennessee-Alabama state line, giving it a unique position in the region. The community straddles Lincoln County, Tennessee and Limestone County, Alabama, which means residents on one side of town are in a different state from neighbors a few streets away. For Marberry Construction, this is home territory. We are based 20 miles north in Fayetteville, TN and have been working in and around Ardmore for years on both sides of the line.
The Ardmore area has become increasingly attractive for families who want to live within commuting distance of Huntsville without paying Madison County land prices. Limestone County and Lincoln County land is more affordable, and the drive into Huntsville is manageable for workers at Redstone Arsenal, Cummings Research Park, and the broader Huntsville employment corridor. That combination of proximity and affordability has driven demand for custom home sites in this area.
Most families building near Ardmore want land. Acreage lots in Lincoln County and Limestone County are available at prices that would not buy a quarter-acre subdivision lot inside Huntsville city limits. That land value, combined with a custom floor plan and everything new, gives Ardmore-area buyers something that production builders in the Huntsville metro simply cannot offer at any price point.
Brandon Marberry oversees every build personally from the first site visit through the final walkthrough. You will not be handed off to a project manager you have never met. Marberry Construction is a family business and we work that way on every project, regardless of location.
Building on Your Lot Near Ardmore TN
Building near Ardmore requires working with the permit process in either Lincoln County, Tennessee or Limestone County, Alabama, depending on which side of the state line your property sits. We are experienced with both systems. For Tennessee-side properties, new construction goes through the Lincoln County Building Department and any rural lot without sewer access requires a septic permit through the Lincoln County Health Department. For Alabama-side properties, the process runs through the Limestone County Building Department and the Alabama Department of Public Health for septic.
We identify which permit process applies to your lot at the start of the project and manage the entire submission. You do not need to figure out which side of the line you are on or which agency has jurisdiction. That clarity at the outset prevents schedule problems and confusion once construction is underway.
What we handle on every build:
- Custom floor plans for your specific lot
- Permit management in Lincoln County TN or Limestone County AL depending on your property location
- Site preparation and foundation work
- Full build from framing through finish
- Metal or shingle roofing
- Workmanship warranty
"Ardmore is where Tennessee meets Alabama. We build on both sides and know both permit systems."
Custom Home Costs in the Ardmore TN Area
Custom homes in the Ardmore area typically run $175 to $275 per square foot depending on finish level, lot conditions, and design complexity. Total project budgets typically range from $300,000 to $1,100,000 not including land. Most clients in this area are in the $350,000 to $600,000 range for a full custom build. We provide a detailed line-item estimate before any work begins.
Land near Ardmore remains significantly more affordable than comparable acreage in Madison County, Alabama. For families who need Huntsville proximity but cannot justify Madison County land prices, the Ardmore area makes a strong financial case. A custom build here delivers acreage, a home built specifically for the way you live, and total project costs that are competitive with production homes in Huntsville subdivisions that give you none of those things.
Serving Ardmore and Surrounding Communities
We serve the full Ardmore community and the surrounding areas on both sides of the state line. That includes Elkmont and Tanner to the south in Limestone County, Athens further into Alabama, and the rural areas of Lincoln County to the north. Hazel Green, across the line in Madison County, is also part of our regular service area.
Marberry Construction's dual-state licensure and experience on both sides of the TN-AL border is a genuine advantage for Ardmore-area clients. We have pulled permits in both Lincoln County and Limestone County and know how the processes differ. When your property is in a border community, working with a contractor who knows both systems saves time and prevents the permit delays that contractors unfamiliar with the area routinely encounter.
