2024 ARTISAN HOME TOUR

Owen Homes, a design + build firm, partners with homeowners for fully custom new homes and renovations in the Kansas City Northland area.

Founded by Luke Owen in 2004, he later brought on long-time employees Matt Owen and Charielle Sowers as co-owners of Owen Homes. For all three, their passion for home design and building was developed at an early age.

Luke and Matt grew up in residential construction by framing homes for their father’s construction company. This inspired Luke to tailor his education and work experience so that when he graduated from William Jewell College, he could start his own business – Owen Homes. Matt continued working for his father’s business while partnering with Luke on many projects and then officially joined the Owen Homes’ team in 2010. Charielle’s degree from UMKC is in marketing and small business, and her family has been in the construction industry for generations. She’s always taken a special interest in home building, so in 2013 when there was an open position for a marketing director, she knew Owen Homes was the perfect fit.

Together we have developed a team of professionals and a systemized design + build process to offer personally-crafted blueprints, highly-customized interior design and full-service project management with a specialty in acreage builds. We approach each project as a collaborative partnership with a strong emphasis on communication; homeowners can expect that teamwork mentality to begin from the initial conversation.

Our goal is to develop a solid understanding of your vision and goals for the home, property, and budget so we can tailor discussions, present options and navigate the process to best align. Having never built the same house twice, Owen Homes looks forward to the challenge of developing a floorplan and interior design that captures your unique style and supports your family’s needs for functionality. It’s important to our team that we are all on the same page, same team from day one, working together to create the perfect, comfortable space you’ll soon call “home.”

While functionality and cohesive design are a large priority, we are equally focused on building high-performance, healthy homes that feature a superior building envelope, upgraded windows, doors and insulation packages, and carefully planned mechanical systems throughout the home. Paired with high standards for quality craftsmanship and the durable materials used throughout every phase of construction, Owen Homes is committed to the details. Knowing how important your home is to you and your family – we treat each project as if it were our own.

We are grounded in our integrity, and we genuinely strive to complete each project with quality and honesty, while making the process enjoyable. Ultimately, Owen Homes will create a home that fits your lifestyle and transitions with your family throughout the years.
