# Custom homes and remodeling in Leander

> Additions, remodels and custom homes in Leander, TX. On Crystal Falls lots the grade and the view decide the plan, so we read the site first. Backed for life.

Out toward Crystal Falls and the Hill Country edge of Leander, the lots slope and the views are the reason people bought them. Anything we add has to work with the grade and stay out of the view.

## Our work in Leander

- [El Cielo garage, game room and pool house, Leander, TX](https://flennhomes.com/portfolio/el-cielo-garage-guest-suite-leander/): A detached three-car garage with a game room above, plus a pool-house bath and covered patio in Crystal Falls, Leander TX. The slope meant building the retaining wall and septic system first.

## What we look at first on a Leander lot

The slope, and where the water goes. On a grade, the order of the work changes: at [El Cielo](/portfolio/el-cielo-garage-guest-suite-leander/) the retaining wall came first, then the septic system, then the garage everyone actually wanted.

What the city requires for added living space. Leander asked for a second septic system for the game room above that garage. Knowing that in week one is what made the sequence possible.

Access. With the main house on one side and a neighbor on the other, equipment had to work from the back of the property forward. Sightlines before rooflines: a covered patio on a view lot has to give shade without giving you a wall, which is why that one has a vaulted ceiling.


## Questions from Leander homeowners

### Can you add a garage with living space above it?

Yes. At El Cielo in Crystal Falls we built a detached three-car garage with a game room above, a pool-house bath and a covered patio. The lot sloped, so the retaining wall and a second septic system had to go in before the structure.

### Is my address in your area?

Call us. We are based in Georgetown and build across Williamson and Travis County. If we are not the right builder for your project or your location, we will tell you who is.

### Do you build outside these cities?

Sometimes, when the project is a fit and the drive still lets us be on site the way we want to be. Ask, and you will get a straight answer.
