Crafting Timeless Mountain Living Since 1992
About Sweet Homes
Nestled in the heart of Summit County, Sweet Homes of Colorado has spent over 30 years mastering the art of custom home building. What began as a humble framing contractor operation has evolved into one of Colorado’s premier full-service custom home builders – trusted by homeowners, architects, and real estate professionals alike.
From Pre-Construction planning to whole-home remodels and new custom builds, we offer a comprehensive suite of services tailored to transform each client’s vision into an enduring sanctuary. Our passion lies in crafting homes that are as personal and unique as the people who live in them – where every detail is intentionally curated, and every room tells a story.
Our legacy is grounded in hands-on craftsmanship. As former carpenters and tradesmen, we carry a deep respect for the skill required to build a home from foundation to finish. Today, our project managers lead teams of trusted subcontractors and vendors, ensuring each phase of construction is executed to the highest standards.
This dedication to quality, paired with our reliable communication and project management, is what sets us apart – and makes us a valuable partner to architects, designers, and real estate professionals throughout Colorado.

About Our Founder
Eric Brownson’s journey to founding Sweet Homes of Colorado is shaped by a lifelong dedication to craftsmanship and mountain living. After graduating from the University of Vermont, he moved to Breckenridge in 1988, balancing ski instruction with hands-on work as a carpenter and framer. In 1993, he co-founded Sweet Homes of Colorado, evolving it from a small framing operation into a respected, full-service general contracting firm. As the company grew, Eric partnered with top Colorado architects and continued to refine the Sweet Homes legacy, ultimately guiding it into the trusted custom home builder it is today.
No matter the size or style of your home, we can provide the experience and quality you need to get your home built exactly the way you want it.
