Nancy Brunkhorst and her husband started that year building three homes in Phoenix, Arizona. In 1980 she specialized building true territorials, quintessential southwest classics, in Paradise Valley, AZ, a jewel of a community with a quiet country like setting and acre + lots. Nance transformed these 1  acre lots and developed a following building unique custom homes which were in keeping with the climate and natural surroundings. Most of the homes at the time were adobe with a few Spanish Colonials.

So what make a Nance custom built home so unique? Everything! From the start, Nancy worked hand in hand with her designer Jim Rogers to make sure that each and every home was about quality. Nancy pored over the design, looking for new fresh ideas to make her homes something that is timeless as well as extraordinary. A Nance home is never about price per square foot. it is about the quality, the custom finishes and the incredible charm that owners find so compelling.

Yes there may be high ceilings but the Nance home will be impeccably in proportion, flowing beautifully, with a surprise element that exudes charm.

A client of mine who bought a Nance house once said that you don't need art in a Nance home. The house is art. Nance agrees! Nance homes may have been updated since 1979 but no one ever tears one down! No wonder that when a Nance unique custom built home comes on the market, all the Realtors cannot wait to preview it for their fussiest clients.
