Styles

The style of any home is usually the first thing that attracts prospective homeowners. (Within our industry, this is often referred to as a home's "elevation".) At PDC, we take great pride in our range and depth of styles available. It is our intent to make each home unique, meeting the desires of each homeowner without confining them to a narrow, regimented set of specifications often found in our industry. To guide homeowners through this journey of selection, we have divided our styles into several categories detailed below. For additional examples of a these styles, please visit our Gallery or select a style's image below to go directly to that style's gallery.

Conventional	Conventional styled homes are often defined in ways that can often be specific to a time period or a locale. Examples include "Cape Cod", "Saltbox", "Farmhouse", "Victorian", "Bungalow", "Rambling Ranch", etc. Our Conventional styled homes include many of these design characteristics, but represent current design elements such as: side lights with front doors, raised panel shutters, shiplap vinyl siding, window trim with headers, etc.
Craftsman	During 2003 Tim Pelton introduced unique styles based on historic designs incorporating Craftsman, Prairie, and Shaker design details, but continuing to use modern space planning concepts (in lieu of the tiny rooms prevalent in those original designs). This style merges those historic designs along with "Arts & Crafts" elements into what we now call our Craftsman style homes. The Craftsman style can be applied to colonial, cape cod and ranch floor plans as an upgrade from Conventional style. Please browse through further definitions of Craftsman for additional details of this exciting style.
Custom	Custom style homes need little if any definition. The Custom home can be a major modification of an existing style, part of a floor plan obtained from a book or another architect, or your dream house drawn on a napkin. Each one is unique, but the style is often dictated by the wishes of the homeowner.
Cluster	Beginning in 2005, PDC began offering Cluster Homes in different neighborhoods. Cluster Homes are single-family homes, not condominiums, that may be attached to one or more other Cluster Homes or detached as a stand-alone dwelling. The floor plans may include Ranches, First Floor Masters, and Colonials, with two or three bedrooms. Each model included standard and optional features. The Cluster Homes in each neighborhood are specifically designed and priced for that neighborhood. Contact us for more information and availability.
Falcon Pointe	Falcon Pointe is specifically designed for the discerning homeowner seeking a maintenance-free, beautifully appointed Craftsman-styled home featuring open floor plans and classic standard features. Unlike many cluster home communities, Falcon Pointe offers six distinct models, each allowing you to choose from among three or four front elevation options. There will be no question as to which home is yours!
Arbor Lakes	Arbor Lakes at Cobblestone Park is a PDC Flex Plan Neighborhood with a distinctive style of its own. The homestyles created specifically for this cluster community pair the elegance of timeless Craftsman design with a rich vintage look to create one of a kind floor plans.
