A home design being reviewed together at SDH

Personal from the beginning.

Four people. One shared vision for the place you’ll call home.

It started with Cody building his own home in North Louisiana. Dr. Hilbun saw it and asked Cody to help bring his own vision to life.

A personal beginning.

A personal beginning.

Cody and Austin built Southern Dream Homes from that personal beginning. The Hilbun Modern Farmhouse became an early part of the story—and a reminder that every home begins with someone’s trust.

Whitney Abritton

Administrative Director

Whitney’s first home build in 2021 sparked a move from nursing into custom home design and construction. Today, she guides clients through meetings, selections and design presentations, staying involved through the final details and punch list.

Getting to know each client is her starting point. Away from work, she enjoys quiet time with family and cooking and baking for the people she loves.

He enjoys the daily rhythm of a jobsite and time outdoors. Away from the build, you’ll often find him fishing.

A home takes shape through hundreds of connected decisions. We bring the plans, selections, and visualizations together so the people designing it, building it, and living in it can work from the same picture.

Our complimentary Home Planner is a first step toward that shared picture. Explore your spaces and an initial investment range, at your own pace.
