Custom Home Builder in Fayetteville, Tennessee

Marberry Construction LLC is based in Fayetteville, Tennessee, which means Lincoln County is not just a service area on a list. It is where we work every day. We build custom homes on private lots throughout Fayetteville, Flintville, Kelso, Petersburg, and the surrounding Lincoln County area. Every project starts on your land with a conversation about what you want to build and how you want to live.

Fayetteville has seen consistent residential growth over the past decade. The proximity to Huntsville, Alabama, roughly 35 miles south, has made Lincoln County attractive to remote workers and families who want acreage and a lower cost of living without paying Madison County land prices. We are seeing more first-time custom home builders who have relocated from Huntsville or Nashville and want to build something that fits their land and their family, not a floor plan from a catalog.

Building custom instead of buying existing makes sense for a lot of families in this market. Existing homes in Lincoln County are limited in inventory, especially for buyers looking for 3 or more acres. Building allows you to get exactly what you want, in the right location, with the right layout for your land. The cost per square foot for a custom home in this area is often comparable to buying a similar existing home, with the advantage that everything is new and built to your specifications.

Brandon Marberry is on every job site personally. He is not managing from an office while a crew you have never met builds your home. When you call, you get Brandon. When you have questions during the build, you get direct answers. That is a different experience from larger builders, and it is why most of our clients come to us through referrals from neighbors and family in the Lincoln County area.

Building a Custom Home on Your Lot in Lincoln County

Custom home built by Marberry Construction in Lincoln County TN

Lincoln County has a straightforward building permit process compared to more urbanized counties in the state. For a residential new construction project, you will need a building permit from the Lincoln County building department and a separate septic permit through the county health department if the property is not connected to municipal sewer, which most rural lots in the county are not. We handle both and manage the full submission and approval process so you are not dealing with multiple agencies on your own.

Lot requirements for a custom home in Lincoln County depend on several factors. For a home on private septic, the county typically requires a minimum of 0.75 to 1 acre, though actual requirements depend on soil conditions and the approved septic design. Setbacks from property lines, roads, and waterways also apply. If you are looking at land in the area, we can walk the lot with you before you purchase and flag any site issues before you commit.

Soil conditions in the Fayetteville area are a mix of clay-heavy soils and sandy loam depending on the specific location of your lot. Clay soils require more attention at the foundation level and can affect what type of septic system is approved for the property. We account for soil conditions in our foundation design and work with the septic engineer to make sure both systems are sized and designed correctly for your specific lot. Building on your land means understanding your land, not assuming it is like every other lot we have been on.

What every Marberry build includes:

  • Custom floor plans designed around your lot
  • Full permit management in Lincoln County
  • Foundation through finish work in-house
  • Metal or shingle roofing included
  • Brandon Marberry on site throughout the build
  • Workmanship warranty on every home

What Does a Custom Home Cost in Fayetteville TN?

Custom homes in the Fayetteville TN area typically run $175 to $275 per square foot depending on the finish level, lot conditions, and design complexity. A 2,000 square foot home with standard finishes comes in at a different number than a 2,000 square foot home with custom trim, vaulted ceilings, tile showers, and a covered porch. Both are custom builds, but the materials and labor costs are different. We give you a detailed line-item estimate before any work begins so there are no surprises mid-project.

Total project budgets for our clients in Lincoln County typically range from $300,000 to $1,100,000, not including land. Most of our clients are in the $350,000 to $600,000 range for their full home build. Land cost varies significantly depending on acreage, location within the county, and whether utilities are already on the property. A lot with an existing well, power at the road, and cleared acreage will cost more but saves money in site development during the build.

Why Fayetteville Families Choose Marberry Construction

We are not a franchise or a large regional builder with multiple crews operating across three states. Marberry Construction is a locally owned business based in Fayetteville. We use local subcontractors when possible, buy materials from regional suppliers, and do business the way people in this county expect to be treated. You will not be handed off to a project coordinator after signing the contract. Brandon stays on every project from the first site visit through the final walkthrough.

After the build is complete and you have moved in, we stand behind our work. If something is not right, you call Brandon directly and we address it. We have built a reputation in Lincoln County on word of mouth, and that reputation depends on every home we build being something we are willing to put our name on. Every home we finish is a reference for the next one.
