Custom Home Builder in Dundee, Oregon

Dundee is synonymous with world-class Pinot Noir and the rolling hills of the Dundee Hills AVA. This small community between Newberg and McMinnville has become one of Oregon's most desirable locations for custom estate homes — offering vineyard views, rural privacy, and proximity to acclaimed restaurants like The Dundee Bistro and Tina's.

Building in Dundee

Building in Dundee often means working with hillside sites in the Red Hills, where Jory soil — the same volcanic soil that makes the wine here exceptional — presents specific foundation and drainage considerations. Many lots are on well and septic systems, and some fall within farm-use zoning that requires careful planning. We've navigated these complexities across dozens of Dundee-area builds.

Dundee estate homes frequently feature wine storage rooms, outdoor entertaining spaces oriented toward vineyard views, and designs that respect the agricultural character of the landscape. Our clients here tend to want homes that feel rooted in the land — natural materials, generous windows, and layouts that bring the outside in.
