Custom Home Construction in Winchester and Franklin County
Marberry Construction serves Winchester and Franklin County from our base in Fayetteville, Tennessee, only about 25 miles to the southwest. That proximity means we are in the area regularly and are not sending crews from a distant market who have never pulled a permit in Franklin County. We know the terrain, the building department, and the soil conditions that shape every build in this part of the state.
Winchester is the Franklin County seat, and the county as a whole has seen steady residential growth over the past decade. Families looking for land and space outside larger Tennessee cities have found that Franklin County offers what they want at a price that still makes sense. Proximity to Tullahoma, the Manchester area, and the broader Nashville and Chattanooga corridors has made the Winchester area an attractive option for custom home buyers who want acreage without paying metro-area land prices.
The Normandy Lake area and the rural land surrounding it is among the most scenic building country in Franklin County. Properties along the Duck River corridor and out toward the eastern edge of the county offer serious acreage at reasonable prices. If you own land in this area and are thinking about building, the combination of natural surroundings, reasonable land costs, and access to nearby employment in Tullahoma and the surrounding region makes a strong case.
Marberry builds on your lot. No developer model, no subdivision floor plans you have to choose from, no preset elevation packages. If you own land in Franklin County or the Winchester area and are ready to build, we start with your lot and your vision. Brandon Marberry oversees every build personally from the first site visit through the final walkthrough. You always have direct access to the person building your home.
Building on Your Lot in Franklin County Tennessee
New construction in Franklin County goes through the Franklin County Building Department. The process requires a building permit, construction drawings, and for most rural lots a separate septic permit through the Franklin County Health Department. Most rural properties in Franklin County are not connected to municipal sewer, which means the septic system is part of the build plan on virtually every rural project. We handle both the building permit and the septic permit and manage the submission process on your behalf.
Lot conditions in Franklin County vary depending on location. Properties near the Duck River and Normandy Lake can have soil that requires specific foundation and drainage approaches. Properties on higher ground toward the county edges often have more straightforward conditions. We walk every lot before finalizing a design and build plan so we are accounting for your specific site, not making assumptions based on general county data.
What we handle on every build:
- Custom floor plans designed around your lot
- Full permit management through Franklin County
- Site preparation and foundation engineering
- Framing, roofing, electrical, plumbing in-house
- Metal or shingle roofing included
- Workmanship warranty on every home
"Franklin County has some of the most beautiful building land in Tennessee. We help you build on it right."
Custom Home Costs in Winchester TN
Custom homes in the Winchester area typically run $175 to $275 per square foot depending on finish level, lot conditions, and design complexity. Total project budgets for our clients in this area typically range from $300,000 to $1,100,000 not including land. Most clients land in the $350,000 to $600,000 range for a full custom build. We provide a detailed line-item estimate before any work begins so there are no surprises during the project.
Land costs in Franklin County remain significantly lower than the Nashville and Chattanooga metro markets. A rural 5-acre tract in the Winchester area costs a fraction of comparable land closer to those cities. Building in the Winchester area gives you a custom floor plan, quality construction, and acreage at a total cost that production builders in larger markets cannot match. For families who want to own land and build something that is genuinely theirs, Franklin County delivers real value.
Serving Winchester and Surrounding Franklin County Communities
We build throughout Franklin County and know the specific conditions and permit processes in each part of the area. Our clients in the Winchester area include families who have purchased land in Estill Springs, Decherd, Cowan, Huntland, and Belvidere, as well as properties in the rural areas between those communities. Each of these areas has its own character in terms of terrain, soil, and access, and we account for those conditions from the start of every project.
Franklin County sits between Lincoln County to the west, where we are based, and the eastern Cumberland Plateau region. That position means we are a natural fit for clients building in this area. We are not a regional office of a large company. Marberry Construction is a family business and Franklin County clients are treated the same way our core Lincoln County clients are treated: directly, honestly, and with Brandon on site throughout the build.
