Custom Home Builder in Howe, TX

Home Building & Remodeling in Howe, TX

Howe is one of those small Grayson County communities that people discover when they realize they can have acreage, good schools, and a 12-minute drive to Sherman all at the same time. Sitting right along US-75 between Sherman and Van Alstyne, Howe has a population of about 3,000 and a genuine small-town atmosphere that the bigger cities in the region can't replicate. The land around Howe is open and buildable, with parcels ranging from a few acres to larger rural tracts — exactly the kind of property that's ideal for a custom home. Bradshaw Builders is just up the road in Sherman, and Howe has been part of our regular service area for the full 40 years we've been in business.

What to Know About Building in Howe

Building around Howe means working within Grayson County's permitting framework for most properties, which is more straightforward than dealing with larger city planning departments. The soil is the same heavy black clay that runs throughout central Grayson County, so engineered foundations with proper pier depth are standard. Howe ISD is a small district with a strong community following — Friday night football in Howe is a real event, not just a game. Most buildable tracts around Howe require well and septic systems, and the water table depth can vary from property to property, so a water test is part of our standard evaluation process. The proximity to US-75 makes Howe practical for commuters who work in Sherman, McKinney, or even as far south as Plano.
