What sets Capstone apart is their Design Center — buyers choose finishes, countertops, cabinetry, and flooring to create a home that feels custom without the custom price tag or timeline. Their “Design Center Ready” inventory homes are finished and available for quick move-in.
- Larger floor plans (up to 3,760 sq ft)

ECCO Homes
ECCO builds exclusively in Prescott Valley, anchoring the Jasper master-planned community. Their homes start from the high $400s — the most accessible new construction price point in the Prescott area.
