We couldn’t be happier with our new Essex home! Their follow-up and attention to detail gave us the peace of mind that comes with knowing we made the right choice for our family. Buying a home is a big investment – knowing it has been made wisely is priceless!”

Our professional selection coordinators will assist you with your new home choices in one of our convenient, one-stop selection centers. Our goal is to make the selection process as simple and as user-friendly as possible. You will enjoy the opportunity to choose multiple components for your new home within the comfort of one of these centers. Here you can see and choose from among various samples and colors of flooring, cabinets, countertops and much more!

“The most enjoyable part of building with Essex was having the opportunity to browse through your selection center before I had to make any decisions on decorating my home. Everything was there in one room and the “standards” were in abundance. There were so many nice things to choose from that I had a hard time making up my mind! Your decorator helped to confirm each one of my selections. It is always great to have a second opinion when you are making important choices.”
– Rose Shanahan

– Gary & Ann Marie Klosko
