The Palo Duro offers a thoughtfully designed split floor plan, highlighted by a spacious master suite that's perfect for escaping the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Its open layout makes it ideal for hosting guests or relaxing on one of the two covered porches. Additional features include a dedicated study, a generously sized walk-in pantry, and a roomy kitchen, all of which add to the flexibility and customization options of this versatile home plan.

EasyBuy℠ Financing

Typically, building a new home involves a construction loan from a bank, credit union, or other financial institution - not with Tilson. If you build with Tilson you don’t need a separate construction loan or interim financing to build a home on your lot.
