NEEDLE POINT HOMES Bringing Custom Luxury Homes and Green Building Together - Like Anything Else, It Begins With A Dream...
Needle Point Homes is committed to building beautiful
custom GREEN homes, homes that exhibit a concern for our environment
and the legacy that we are creating for our children.

 As a member of the Green Building Initiative (GBI), National Association
  of Home Builders (NAHB) and ENERGY STAR®, we have made a
   concerted effort to educate ourselves about measures that may be taken
     to reduce the impact of our projects upon the local and greater environment.
        We participate in industry seminars, subscribe to related periodicals and review
         on-line informational sites to familiarize ourselves with current and upcoming practices.

               Combining new technology with proven old-world traditions enables us to build
                superior homes each and every time. Using the most sophisticated resources
                 available, our extraordinary team of talented professionals provides you
                    with an unparalleled level of service.

                       We approach each residence as a unique opportunity to create a
                        home that will enhance the homeowner’s lifestyle. I am confident that
                        your new home would provide many years of enjoyment.

                                                                     Steve Needle
