Custom Homes for the Art of Living

At Hanson Builders, when we build your home, we don’t just construct a building. We design your dream home that’s masterfully crafted and tailored to your unique needs, personality, and lifestyle. We know that every detail matters, and we listen to you to make sure we get it right the first time. Family owned and operated, we’ve been building award-winning, custom homes throughout Minnesota for over 40 years.

Uncompromising Quality

Details matter to us as much as the big picture, and we never sacrifice the small things in our effort to build your amazing home. We give careful attention to important details our competitors may overlook, because your home deserves it.

Fully Transparent Process

We believe in transparency to ensure you have a complete understanding of your home’s progress every step of the way. We share our production schedule with you from concept through completion so you can follow along in real time.

Build a Home in a Community That’s Right for You

Designed to accommodate your family and your lifestyle, we build homes in carefully selected communities across the Twin Cities. Our neighborhoods are close to shopping, dining, parks, and trails, and have easy access to major roads. When you partner with Hanson Builders, you don’t have to choose between a beautiful home or a convenient location. Whether you’re looking for the best school district for your children, natural vistas, or proximity to entertainment, we’ll help you find the perfect community for your dream home.
