Creating Luxury Custom Homes in Omaha Since 1978
Ken Oster Homes has been hand-crafting luxury custom homes in the Omaha area since 1978 when founder Ken Oster built his first home after working as a firefighter and carpenter. Since then, we've established a reputation for quality craftsmanship, enduring value, and making dreams come true for discerning homeowners.
Ken Oster Homes beginnings
Ken and Diane started the company with a loan from a local banker, building homes in then “new” West Omaha neighborhoods during a time of growth and opportunity. While building his business, Ken did much of the construction work himself - framing, trim carpentry, and even roofing to save on costs. His wife Diane worked to obtain her realtor license in 1984. She helped Ken keep up-to-date with building trends and worked to advertise and sell the beautiful homes they were building.
Growth to match trends
Over the decades, Ken Oster Homes has grown and evolved along with the Omaha luxury home market. Home sizes have increased from 1,500 sq ft to over 6,000 sq ft. Design and material selections have expanded exponentially. We've incorporated the latest technologies while remaining hands-on to ensure quality.
Some things never change
What hasn't changed is our commitment to each customer, guiding them through design, selection, and construction to bring your custom home vision to life. We partner with only the best architects, draftsmen, and craftsmen to build homes that reflect our clients’ lifestyles and aesthetics. The result is a home tailor-made for you that retains value and provides enjoyment for generations.
