Gemcraft Homes, a rapidly growing builder in six states with over 30 years of experience, is expanding into Cumberland and Frostburg, MD and further into West Virginia, an attractive market for single-family homes and a better alternative than the inflated DMV area (D.C., Maryland, Virginia).
Gemcraft has invested in full-time sales personnel and model homes in Hampshire County and Berkeley Springs, with a third model home on the way in the Lakewood Community in Mineral County. The new model home is slated to open for tours early this summer.
“We can build from 1,000 sq. ft homes to 5,000 sq. ft homes, from the affordable to luxury,” said Bill Luther, owner of Gemcraft Homes. “We can build on lots that we own or are owned by the customer. We also have an array of financing options.”
Gemcraft is focusing on homeowners who want more value for their money and may have a job in the DMV or Pittsburgh with flexible working conditions. It is also targeting people who want to take advantage of West Virginia’s natural beauty with a second home on a lake, creek or in the mountains, and people who already own property and want to build a new, quality home.
“These markets have so much to offer from its natural beauty to affordability to their proximity to the DMV and Pittsburgh,” Luther said. “Homeowners can buy a beautiful Gemcraft home on a large piece of property for literally half the price they would pay for a home in the outrageously expensive northern Virginia market.”
The median selling price in northern Virginia this past August jumped 11.6% to $700,000, compared to the prior year, according to the Northern Virginia Association of Realtors.
Since 1993, Gemcraft has been building new homes in some of the most desirable locations in the mid-Atlantic region. There are homesites and move-in ready homes available now in some of the region’s preferred locations near top employers, choice school districts, and beautiful surroundings.
