Break Ground on Something Built Around You

When it comes to new home construction, there’s more to consider than square footage and finishes. At Scott Olson Homes, we think about how your space will serve you long-term. As an experienced residential builder, we understand the needs of families, retirees, and property owners across West Texas. From custom layouts to code-compliant structures, every detail is designed with care.

We specialize in practical, long-lasting builds that include:

• Ground-up construction for single-family homes on your land or a prepared lot.
• Specialized builds, including barndominiums, durable, open-concept metal buildings with living quarters.
• Custom-designed safe rooms built to withstand Texas weather, which many families now see as a must-have rather than an add-on during tornado season.
• Built to code with energy efficiency and long-term durability in mind.
• Ideal for rural properties, farm land, or families looking for unique living solutions.

Our barndominium builders are especially equipped to craft open-concept metal homes that are cost-effective, durable, and perfect for those seeking flexibility and ease of maintenance. As full-service construction contractors, we assist in all areas of residential construction, from permitting and site prep to final walkthroughs.

We also support clients who want to hire a residential builder for unique property challenges or rural lots. Our residential construction process is simple, direct, and centered on your needs. Whether you’re looking to work with a custom home contractor or need help managing local building codes, we’re here to make it happen. You bring the vision, we’ll bring the tools, timeline, and follow-through.

Build Smarter with Purposeful Planning

In Abilene, TX, more families are moving away from mass-produced homes and toward tailored spaces that support their routines, values, and property goals. At Scott Olson Homes, we’ve been responding to that demand for nearly four decades with new home construction that makes sense for real life.

We take into account the lot, land layout, wind patterns, and long-term functionality when building each home. Our team helps you explore layouts that work for modern family life, whether that means an open kitchen for entertaining, a dedicated workspace, or a multi-use garage. Our approach also means fewer surprises, clear communication, and results that last.

We don’t push floor plans that don’t fit. Instead, we start by listening, then we build something that reflects your lifestyle, not just current trends. From barndominiums that offer flexible use of space to safe rooms that provide critical shelter during severe storms, we build with both purpose and practicality.

Because we live and work here in West Texas, we also know what materials and designs hold up best in this climate. That’s one of many reasons our clients continue to refer friends and return to us when they build again. At Scott Olson Homes, we’re more than builders; we’re partners in building something that feels like home.
