The Castleview Process

Building a custom luxury home is a journey. Our proven 6-phase process ensures clarity, quality, and confidence from concept to completion.

01

Discovery

4-6 Weeks

We start by understanding your lifestyle, aesthetic preferences, and functional requirements. Through detailed consultation, site analysis, and zoning review, we establish feasibility and project scope.

  • Initial consultation & vision alignment
  • Site analysis & feasibility study
  • Municipal zoning review
  • Preliminary budget & timeline
02

Design

8-12 Weeks

Our architects create conceptual designs, refine layouts through multiple iterations, and produce comprehensive construction drawings. Every detail is considered and documented.

  • Conceptual design & 3D renderings
  • Structural & mechanical engineering
  • Material & finish selections
  • Final construction drawings
03

Permits

6-12 Months

We navigate the complex permit approval process on your behalf, managing all submissions, revisions, and municipal communications. Timeline varies by jurisdiction.

  • Building permit application
  • Committee of Adjustment (if required)
