In the rolling hills of the Texas Hill Country, where craftsmanship meets innovation, one name has consistently stood out in the custom home building industry: KC Custom Homes. As the 2025 San Antonio Parade of Homes approaches, this award-winning custom home builder is preparing to showcase their exceptional talent and vision at the prestigious George's Ranch in Boerne. This is your exclusive opportunity to experience firsthand the luxury, attention to detail, and unparalleled craftsmanship that has made KC Custom Homes one of San Antonio's most respected custom home builders for over 25 years.
The story of KC Custom Homes begins with Kenneth Castro, who founded the company over 25 years ago in Floresville, Texas. What started as a vision to create exceptional custom homes has evolved into a second-generation family legacy that embodies the very best in Texas custom home building.
"With a legacy spanning over a quarter of a century, KC Custom Homes has been at the forefront of Texas home building," explains Ryan Castro, who now serves as Director of Operations alongside his brother Chris, the Director of Sales. "Our commitment to excellence is evident in every dream home realized."
This family-owned business has deep roots in Central Texas, having built custom homes across San Antonio, New Braunfels, and the surrounding areas since 1998. The company's success is built on a foundation of family values and traditions, ensuring that every home they craft is built with love, care, and a personal touch that only a family-owned business can offer.
KC Custom Homes isn't just another custom home builder β they're an award-winning industry leader whose reputation for excellence is backed by prestigious accolades. In 2024, they swept the Texas Association of Builders Awards, taking home 8 prestigious awards, including the esteemed Grand Award - Custom Builder. Their award-winning homes have been recognized in multiple categories, including Best New Custom Home, Best Specialty Room, and Best Outdoor Living Space.
The company also earned a triple win at the 2023 Texas Star Awards, being recognized for Best Architectural Design (750K-900K), Best Website, and Best Specialty Room (under $1 million). Additionally, they achieved a double victory at the 2023 Summit Awards presented by GSABA, winning awards for Best Social Media and Best Website.
"These awards reflect our commitment to design excellence, a seamless online experience, and crafting unique, personalized spaces," says Ryan Castro, President of KC Custom Homes. "We're grateful to the Texas Association of Builders and the Greater San Antonio Home Builders Association for these recognitions."
What sets KC Custom Homes apart from other custom home builders is their comprehensive, client-centered approach to the home building process. Their design philosophy centers on creating homes that not only meet but exceed their clients' expectations, with a focus on quality, character, and personalization.
"Every home we design and construct stands as a testament to our unwavering commitment to quality," explains Chris Castro. "From the foundation to the finishing touches, we ensure that each home reflects the unique character of its owners while adhering to the highest standards of craftsmanship."
KC Custom Homes has developed an in-depth planning and design process that makes custom home building easy and enjoyable. Their approach includes:
Budget-Conscious Design: They start by establishing a target square footage based on cost per square foot in the building area, ensuring the home design directly correlates to the client's budget.

Dedicated Project Management: Each client is assigned a specific Project Manager who serves as their daily point of contact throughout the build, ensuring clear communication and attention to detail.
The true measure of a custom home builder's success lies in the satisfaction of their clients. KC Custom Homes has earned a stellar reputation among homeowners, with glowing testimonials that speak to their exceptional service, craftsmanship, and attention to detail.
Linda Purvis, whose dream home was built by KC Custom Homes in Cordova on Canyon Lake, shares: "Our experience from initial contact with Ken Castro and his sons to visualizing our dreams with Rudy, the amazing home designer, were superior to all the custom home stories I had heard. The foundation was poured at the start of June and we moved in at the end of December. Our project manager - Jaime- worked from day 1 to stay on top of the build and ensure each step was done well. The entire process was a positive one."
Another homeowner enthusiastically states: "We cannot thank you, KC Homes, enough for your professionalism, craftsmanship, and the overall home building process! From Chris, Jaime, Rudy, Ryan, Kim and Cameronβwe are so pleased and feel blessed to be working with you all! Thus far, this experience has been amazing β a process which has been easy and relatively stress-free. We have told many and we will continue to do so!"
