At Leighton Hudson Homes, we’ve helped families and individuals create their dream homes in this scenic, rural community known for its proximity to Lake Pend Oreille, Farragut State Park, and a growing sense of small-town charm.

​

As your dedicated custom home builder in Athol, we specialize in building homes that honor the beauty of the land they sit on. Whether you envision a cabin-inspired hideaway tucked into the trees or a spacious modern farmhouse with room to grow, our team is here to guide you every step of the way with honesty, experience, and award-winning craftsmanship.

What to Expect When You Build with Us

​

We believe your custom home should reflect your life—not someone else’s idea of how it should look. That’s why we begin every project by listening. We want to know what inspires you, how you live day-to-day, and what your priorities are for both design and function.

​

Once we understand your vision, we walk you through our custom home options, which can be personalized in countless ways. From there, we guide you through lot prep, permitting, and construction. You’ll never be left guessing—our transparent process includes clear timelines, regular communication, and on-site walkthroughs at key stages.

​

We work with local subcontractors who take as much pride in their craft as we do. And our finishes aren’t just high-quality—they’re tailored to your tastes, ensuring that everything from your flooring to your fireplace feels like home.
