How customizable are Drees floor plans in Two Step Farm?

Very — customization is the core of the Drees Custom brand. Beyond finish selections, Drees offers structural modification options on many plans: resizing rooms, relocating walls, converting studies, adding outdoor living square footage, and configuring multi-generational or dual primary layouts. The earlier in the process you start, the more the structure can flex — so it pays to talk through your must-haves before you contract. We help you pressure-test which modifications are worth the cost before you commit.

Does having a buyer's agent cost extra when building with Drees Custom Homes?

No. Buyer representation is builder-paid, so working with us costs you $0 out of pocket and does not raise the price of your home. Drees budgets for buyer representation whether you use it or not — the only requirement is registering us as your agents on or before your first visit to the sales office.

What is the typical build time for a Drees home in Two Step Farm?

Custom builds generally take longer than production homes — plan on roughly 8 to 12 months from contract to closing depending on the plan, the level of structural customization, weather, and permitting in Montgomery County. Ask us for the current timeline on the specific plan and homesite you're considering, and we'll help you line up your move, financing, and (if you have one) the sale of your current home around it.

What are the property taxes and HOA dues for this section?

Two Step Farm sits in a MUD, so the combined tax rate typically runs an estimated 2.80%–3.20% before exemptions. Montgomery County homestead, over-65, and veteran exemptions can reduce that meaningfully. An HOA maintains the community's amenities and common areas, and the community is zoned to Montgomery ISD schools. We'll walk you through the full monthly picture — principal, interest, taxes, insurance, MUD, and HOA — before you commit to anything.

Does Drees offer quick move-in inventory homes?

Occasionally. Drees is primarily a to-be-built builder, but inventory and spec homes do come available — often at various construction stages with design selections already made. Those homes move quickly because they let buyers skip most of the build wait. Inventory turns over frequently, so request the current list and we'll send what's actually available today along with a straight read on pricing.

About the builder

A family-owned custom builder since 1928

Drees Custom Homes is one of the few remaining family-owned builders with a heritage measured in decades — homebuilding since 1928 and nearly a century of custom craftsmanship behind it. That legacy shows up in the details: architectural proportion, natural light, and floor plans that read like they were drawn for a specific family rather than a price point.

Drees pairs that custom flexibility with real building science through its DreeSmart® energy and technology program, and it builds on premier executive homesites with the lot characteristics buyers consistently pay premiums for — greenbelt frontage, cul-de-sacs, and mature trees. In Two Step Farm, Drees anchors the estate side of the community: bigger plans, deeper flexibility, and homes built to a custom standard.

Custom design flexibility

Architectural features & signature options

These are the areas where a Drees custom build separates itself from production construction — and where the right guidance before you sign matters most.

DreeSmart® Innovations

Whole-home automation, advanced airflow systems, and high-efficiency HVAC — engineered into the home from the ground up rather than added as an upgrade package.

Executive Culinary Kitchens

Commercial-grade appliance suites, walk-in prep sculleries, and oversized quartz islands built for people who cook for a crowd — or want a kitchen that can.

Indoor-Outdoor Living

Panoramic sliding wall systems and covered outdoor pavilions with built-in gas grills, blurring the line between the great room and the backyard.

Multi-Generational & Dual Primary Suites

Structural configurations that welcome extended family or guests — dual primary suites, second owner's retreats, and flexible in-law layouts.

Homesites & floor plans

Drees homesite collections & plan highlights

The homesite you choose determines which plans fit, how much yard you keep, and what your view out the back wall looks like for the next thirty years.

Executive Estate Series

Approx. 3,200 – 4,600+ sq ft
4–5 bedrooms
3- to 4-car garages
1- and 2-story luxury plans

Best fit: Buyers who want genuine custom flexibility — structural modifications, premium finishes, and estate-scale entertaining space backed by Drees' custom craftsmanship.

What the homesites offer

Deep lot setbacks on the estate streets
Oversized greenbelt-backing locations
Mature tree preservation where the land allows
Quiet cul-de-sac homesites with large usable yards

Our take: the lot matters as much as the plan in this section — premiums on greenbelt and cul-de-sac homesites tend to hold value best at resale.

Deep lot setbacks

Generous front setbacks for oversized driveways and a stately arrival on the estate streets.

Greenbelt-backing homesites

Oversized lots backing to open green space — no rear neighbors and a tree line instead of a fence.

Mature tree preservation

Established trees preserved where possible, giving some homesites shade and privacy that take decades to grow.

Quiet cul-de-sacs

Pie-shaped, low-traffic cul-de-sac homesites with bigger, more usable backyards.
