Predesigned Homes

A streamlined process to build your Maine home.

Design-forward homes adaptable to your site and lifestyle.

Predesigned Homes give you a clear, thoughtfully developed starting point. Each design includes complete architectural plans developed by our team. You choose how much customization to bring—whether you build it as drawn or tailor details to suit your lifestyle, every path reflects the same craftsmanship, quality, and design integrity that define our homes.

Depending on the model, a Predesigned home may be built on site or delivered through modular construction with a trusted local manufacturing partner. Knickerbocker Group guides these decisions through conversation, ensuring outcomes that support long-term value, design integrity, and stewardship of place.

Prefab Pods, now Predesigned

Our Prefab Pods—Aster and Lupine—are now part of Knickerbocker Group’s Predesigned collection. You’ll find these smart, small-scale designs within Homes, Cabins + Cottages and Accessory Buildings below, where they may be realized as a Predesigned home or, where appropriate, through modular construction.

$ Off-the-Shelf—Move in faster with minimal decisions; floor plan and finishes as drawn.

$$ Added Options—Personalize finishes, expand spaces, or adjust layouts without extending the timeline.

$$$ Custom Home—Collaborate with our design team to reimagine layouts, architecture, and features on top of a carefully considered starting plan.
