30 Years of Building in Our Community
Company Founder Steve Meadows has been a central Ohio custom home builder for three decades. From the start, he and his team have been committed to building clients’ dream homes with quality materials and the highest standards of construction excellence.
Steve is particularly proud to be building homes in the community he loves. Growing up in Canal Winchester, Steve’s family owned the iconic Wigwam restaurant. He graduated from Canal Winchester High School, received a basketball scholarship, and played under the guidance of University of West Virginia Head Coach, Bob Huggins.
But he didn’t stay away from Ohio for long. Steve and his wife, Joanne, settled in Fairfield County, where they raised their three sons. Their children attended Bloom Carroll schools, before going off to earn their college degrees.
This lifetime of love and commitment to community helps drive our passion for designing and building world-class custom homes. It’s what’s earned us our reputation as one of the best Columbus, OH builders. We’re proud to build houses that our neighbors love, and where more lifetimes will be spent enjoying everything this beautiful corner of the world has to offer.
The Meadows Process
Your journey with Meadows Custom Homes starts with the design. You can choose from one of our existing home plans, or you can develop a custom design. For the past 12 years, we’ve worked with an exceptional architect to create many one-of-a-kind blueprints for our homeowners.
Broadly speaking, our designs tend to be guided by a few core architectural principals.
First of all, we like to maximize both square footage and natural light in the areas were people are likely to gather. This creates beautiful, comfortable, casual areas as opposed to more traditional, rigid, formal spaces.
Second, we create seamless connections between indoor and outdoor living. This allows for easy entertaining, dining, and socializing in the fresh air as well as expanded living space. This often means large, wraparound decks and covered outdoor seating areas.
Third, we seek opportunities for customization and personalization. Even when you choose an existing home plan, this is still a home you’re building from scratch. You have opportunities to adjust multiple spaces with in the design, so the final home optimally suit your lifestyle and needs.
Once your blueprints are finalized, we will work with you to develop a construction plan and timeline. Throughout the process, we stay in constant communication, so that the status of your home’s custom is always readily available. During this process, we’ll help you choose materials, finishes, and appliances that ideally suit your new space.
Even after your home is built, we’re still your home builder. We stand by our work and are always happy to answer questions or go over the processes used in your construction. Above all we want you to love where you live, for years and years to come.
