First Place — Distinctive Plan & Design

Pick of the Parade — Silver Award

These awards are judged by a panel of industry experts from across the country, making back-to-back wins in a single year an exceptional accomplishment. Together, they reaffirm what sets JW Thomas Custom Homes apart: thoughtful design, meticulous craftsmanship, and homes that inspire.
