Santa-Cruz Family Custom Home In Fond du Lac
My company will build only a few custom homes per year in Oshkosh, Appleton, Neenah and Fond du Lac. This allows me to take a very hands-on and personal, custom builder role in the design and construction of each new home.

The finish selections for the Santa-Cruz' new luxury home in Fond du Lac were made with the expert help of interior designer Kaye Breister. Kaye works with all Fine Homes By Andrew customers helping to make the potentially overwhelming process of selecting the colors and styles of flooring, countertops, paint, etc. an enjoyable one. Over the years, I’ve found Kaye to do a wonderful job of listening to my customers and helping them achieve their look, rather than forcing her look onto them. The Santa-Cruz home is a perfect example of Kaye’s great eye for color and style.
 “Our custom home builder experience with Fine Homes by Andrew surpassed our greatest expectations. Both home builder, Andy Backus, and Interior Home Designer, Kaye Briester, are conscientious, knowledgeable, and fun to work with. They were available to guide us, and answer any question or concern every step of the way, always with obvious expertise and advice that made it clear that they love what they do. The quality of each aspect of our new custom home is remarkable, and the service exceptional. We have been amazed at how uncomplicated the custom home building process was for us, and could not have imagined a better experience here in Fond du Lac.”
