Planning, design, budgeting & construction — under one roof, in your town.
Building in Lincoln
Ten minutes from our door. Built like it matters.
Lincoln is the closest neighbor — ten minutes up Highway 65 from our Rocklin headquarters — and one of the fastest-growing cities in Placer County. Beyond the master-planned neighborhoods, the countryside north and west still offers acreage, orchards, open sky, and room for a home designed around how you actually live.
Building here means City of Lincoln permitting inside the limits and Placer County permitting outside them, mostly gentle terrain, and lots that favor single-level living. Our nine semi-custom plans were drawn for this ground, and a fully custom home can spread out here without hillside constraints.
LOCAL KNOWLEDGE
What building in Lincoln takes
Flat lots, full plans
Lincoln's gentle terrain keeps site work modest, which puts more of your budget into the home itself. Our nine semi-custom plans — 2,030 sq ft up to just under 3,800 sq ft, with an optional attached ADU — fit these lots without compromise.
City vs. county
The City of Lincoln handles permitting inside city limits; Placer County handles everything outside them. We prepare complete permit packages for either process.
Rural acreage & outbuildings
Orchard and ranch parcels north of town often call for a shop, a barn, or RV storage alongside the home. We master-plan the whole property as one design and one budget.
The Sherman Way in Lincoln
Being this close changes how we build. Mike and Ben keep a constant presence on site, client meetings happen at the office or the lot without a long drive, and the same finishing crews on our foothill estates frame here too. We plan the whole project before we price any of it, so a Lincoln home finishes with no surprises.

Do you build in Lincoln?
Yes — Lincoln is ten minutes from our Rocklin headquarters and inside our home county. We offer custom homes, semi-custom plans, and major remodels there.
Are your semi-custom plans a good fit for Lincoln lots?
They were designed for this terrain specifically. Nine ready-to-build designs range from 2,030 sq ft to just under 3,800 sq ft with an optional attached ADU, and customizing one typically saves $10,000–$25,000 in design and engineering and three to six months of time.
What does a custom home cost in Lincoln?
Lincoln offers predictability — gentle lots keep site work modest, so more of the budget goes into the house. Custom homes start around $1.2 million and semi-customs around $850,000; we confirm a realistic whole-project number for your parcel before design begins.
