This stunning Northern Colorado home remodel reimagines lakeside living. By integrating a large-scale home addition designed to maximize panoramic views, we transformed a disconnected layout into an open, high-performance sanctuary.

About Hammersmith Structures

Hammersmith Structures is a Northern Colorado luxury custom home builder and general contractor based in Fort Collins with more than 20 years in the home-building business. We’re based in Fort Collins, Colorado, but we’ve built custom homes in Loveland, Timnath, Windsor, Estes Park, and other communities throughout Northern Colorado.

We specialize in the design-build of luxury custom homes and extensive (think: move out of the house while we’re working) residential remodels.

Frequently, the custom projects we take on involve some complex aspect in the design or architecture that makes other home builders shy away. An indoor pool, a net-zero energy home with a geothermal system, a full-sized gym, a two-story waterfall that drops magically into a koi pond in the basement – we revel in these opportunities and they resulted in unique homes that their owners love.

Need a custom home builder for an ambitious project in the Fort Collins or Northern Colorado area that’s so far outside the box you’re not sure where to begin? Throw it out to us. We’ll take it on fearlessly. Learn more about us.

Design+Build

We want to ensure that working with your custom home builder from the beginning to the end of your project is a fun and seamless process for you, which is why we prefer to work as a design-build contractor. We team up in the beginning with the architect, the engineers, our in-house interior design team, and even some of the Fort Collins-area Hammersmith Structures sub-contractors to create a design-build team that we think will best understand and execute your ideas.

Planning Ahead

We begin with the end in mind, understanding your must-haves and wants for your custom home. Then, we plan for the build accordingly, including building a budget that meets your needs. The collaborative time we spend during this part of the process results in many project efficiencies without compromising the design or integrity of the final product.

REFINING THE VISION

Part of our value is our experience and the input we can provide because of it. One of our goals as your custom home builder is to play the devil’s advocate. Sometimes great aesthetic ideas will make their way into the plan but may be inefficient or expensive to implement. We never want to stifle creativity but rather want to raise our hands and offer alternatives for a more effective solution to reduce costs or potential pitfalls down the line. We also may see an opportunity for a feature that makes a big impact in the design of your home, and will gladly present it to you for consideration.

perfect pairing

Bring us your magazine pages and Pinterest boards, and we’ll recommend a few Northern Colorado architects that might be a good fit for designing your custom home. Or bring your architect with plans in hand. Either way, we’ll work effectively as a team to bring your home to life. There’s no commitment to having a conversation, so let’s chat.

happy clients

“We had the rare privilege of finding a custom home builder we wholeheartedly trusted and enjoyed. Chandler was an integral part of the design process and helped balance vision and construction with pragmatic advice, creative problem solving, and a side of levity. We started the process as client and contractor but finished with a remarkable house and a lifelong friend.”
