Award winning Master Builder Jim Lambie leaves his fingerprints all over town, in a good way. Lambie’s unique architectural style can be found in a myriad of communities and neighborhoods throughout the metro area. Wherever Lambie goes, luxury naturally follows, and he is an expert at paying close attention to detail and design while also blending in a highly functional layout.
Not just a builder of custom homes, this forward-thinking artisan also wears many additional hats: visionary, creative thinker, strategist, and humble yet driven entrepreneur. He is the true epitome of Einstein’s quote, “Creativity is intelligence having fun.” The homes he designs and builds reflect unique character, style, and personality, each one a showstopper in and of themselves.
In addition to the luxurious custom homes Lambie builds, his impressive portfolio also showcases his designs in some of the finest maintenance-free communities featuring outstanding villas in the metro area, such as Red Bridge Greens in Kansas City, The Villas at Metcalf Village in Overland Park, Bristol Highlands in Lenexa, Meadowbrook Park in Prairie Village, and soon to come, Regents Park in Leawood. Red Bridge Greens and Bristol Highlands won first and second place awards in the Spring Parade of Homes.
While each neighborhood is different in terms of what maintenance items are covered, these typically involve snow removal and lawn care, such as mowing, the application of chemicals, and picking up leaves.
“Some of the communities also provide exterior painting, roofing services, and concrete maintenance, which are part of the HOA dues,” noted Lambie. “It all just depends on the project.”
One of Lambie’s newest projects, Regent Parks, is an exciting invitation to live luxuriously in some of the most upscale villas in town.
“This development is located off 135th and Kenneth Road in Leawood,” noted Lambie. “There will be 82 units available, and we anticipate pouring foundations by July.”
The Bristol Highlands development promises to be another head-turning neighborhood in the heart of Lenexa with 62 units available now. We have 8 units that are move in ready now, and we are just starting to open phase 2.
Some of the beautiful hallmarks of Lambie’s designs include open floor plans, unique tile design, hardwood floors, beautiful stone appointments, walk-in pantries, enclosed patios, vaulted ceilings, custom lighting, luxuriously finished lower levels with ample space to relax with family and entertain friends, and efficient use of space all around.
“We build villas in all price ranges,” he noted. “They are popular designs for those who are empty nesters or downsizing but still want the nice amenities and luxury finishes but in a smaller space.”
Lambie never seems to slow down and is currently eyeing several more home developments on the horizon.
“We have started a development off 183rd and Mission called Southern Meadows,” said Lambie. “We have 513 acres that will have 1,200 lots with home plans to meet anyone’s needs starting in the upper $600,000s.” Lambie enjoys land development and working with people. As always, he initially sketches his plans for each design and then hands those off to an architect to finalize. He keeps the architects busy, too, as his creative wheels are continually in motion.
“I’m always looking for new ideas,” he smiled.
Lambie has purchased several infill lots in the Prairie Village and Fairway area, presenting the perfect opportunity for a custom build. They also have many tear-down rebuilds available in these areas.
Deciding to build a home with Lambie Homes is more than just a monumental decision. It is an opportunity… an opportunity to celebrate living the way you always dreamed you could. After all, being in business for 47 years and having a good reputation within the community means this company definitely knows how to take care of its clients.
