DeCoste home

My name is Gina, and my husband and I recently finished building our Contemporary Southwestern home
in Buckeye, Arizona, just 25 miles west of Phoenix at the base of the White Tank Mountains. We moved in this
past November.

Everyone who visits raves about the true Southwestern
style that we have accomplished in all the details.
Our home is 4,700 square feet, with four bedrooms, a
den, dining room, and a basement with a large rec
room. We have a rooftop patio where we enjoy the
beautiful views, including the sunset.

We hired an architect and designed the home
ourselves—that took about a year and a half—and
finally we hired a general contractor to facilitate
the building. My husband and I enjoyed every step of
the process.

—Gina and Paul DeCoste
