Find Your Home

Helping You Build a Better Home

At Bigelow Homes, we go beyond building houses—we build around you. From the first tour of our model homes to exploring floor plans and finalizing design details, our team works alongside you every step of the way to ensure your goals and needs are fully met.

For over 40 years, we’ve been helping Minnesotans create not just better homes, but better communities to call their own. That passion drives us forward every day, and it’s why families across Southern Minnesota continue to trust Bigelow Homes. Here’s what you can expect when you choose to build with us:

Find Your Community

One of the most exciting parts of building a home is choosing a community that fits your lifestyle, values, and goal.

At Bigelow Homes, we know that finding the right location is just as important as designing the home itself. That’s why our team works closely with you to explore every option. Together, we’ll review our available lots, highlight the strengths of each neighborhood, and help you find the perfect setting to bring your dream home to life!

Visualize Your Home

In the world of homebuilding, we stand behind the saying: seeing is believing. That’s why we offer exclusive available home tours so you can experience the details, craftsmanship, and features of our homes up close.

Whether you prefer an in-person walkthrough or a convenient virtual tour, our team is here to guide you every step of the way. Explore the look, feel, and flow of our homes, and discover the perfect fit for your lifestyle!

Express Your Needs

Have a vision for your dream home? Whether it’s specific architectural features, preferred materials, or the perfect square footage for your family, we take pride in creating homes that reflect your expectations and fit your lifestyle.

Our team will walk you through all available floor plans and help you choose from a wide range of architectural styles and finishes. For inspiration, explore our gallery and see the craftsmanship and design detail that have gone into our past projects—and imagine what we can create for you!

Let Us Help You Design, Build, and Move Into the Home of Your Dreams!

At Bigelow Homes, nothing makes us happier than seeing another satisfied customer move-in into their new home. From our first consultation until the day you walk through your new front door, our team will work with you every step of the way to ensure your new home suits your needs and preferences.
