custom home architects and builders in Kenilworth, il
At Scott Simpson Design + Build, we have more than 30 years of experience in the architecture and building of custom Kenilworth houses and homes on the North Shore. Our unified team of architects and builders specialize in new home construction, large-scale remodels, historic renovations and eco-conscious green building projects.
Kenilworth is the newest of the nine suburban North Shore communities bordering Lake Michigan just north of Chicago. From a new construction home with state-of-the-art comforts and amenities to the preservation of a historically significant structure that was designed by George Maher, well-respected architect of the Prairie School, we have enjoyed working on a variety of Kenilworth houses, including a few of our favorite dream homes in Kenilworth:

Kenilworth is known for its beauty and affluence as well as having its own school district and being deemed one of the best places to raise a family in Cook County by Niche.com. After more than 30 years of building new Kenilworth houses and homes on the North Shore, we believe we have the right combination of experience, references, and resources to deliver on the vision for your luxury home. Opting for a united design-build service is a smart approach as it affords access to licensed architects, builders, and a dedicated project management team simultaneously.
Kenilworth Demolition Process
The Village of Kenilworth’s demolition process is multi-step and takes months, requiring technical knowledge that can be a headache for those who aren’t familiar with the home demo space.
Needless to say, getting it done right can save you time, money, and effort in the long run. As a local team who has completed the Village of Kenilworth’s demolition process multiple times, we encourage you to hire a firm who knows the steps and how to complete the process in a timely, efficient, and professional manner. If you’re looking for help with your Kenilworth demo or build, we invite you to reach out.

Happy Clients
“We planned on talking to three or four different builders and we met with Simpson and then we didn’t meet with anybody else.”
~ Glenview Custom Home Design and Build
“SSDB is part of an echelon other builders are not – so much quality, so much devotion, such a distinct style and the ability to deliver. I feel exactly the way I wanted to feel in my new home. Our door is open 24/7 whenever you want to show anyone your wonderful work!”
~ Northbrook New Home Design and Build
“We greatly appreciate all of you – your talent, and the work you are doing on our house. The people make the project and you are all amazing. Next year happy hour on the porch at this time!”
~ Northbrook Eco-Conscious Design and Build
“Thank you for the thoughtful education all the way through the design and build. I daresay your standards were even higher than ours. We are so glad you were there to keep us on track, simplify everything and even bring joy into it all! This is probably unusual to say about a contractor – but we are thrilled to have taken this journey with you and to have made new friends as well as a new house.”
~ Wilmette New Home Design and Build
“I know I wrote you something after our final walk-through but seeing you here just now – offering your assistance a year and a half later – I just want to say thanks for making us feel like a priority even after our project was done. It’s the best “in” having picked you guys.”
~ Winnetka Home Renovation and Addition
