Sustainable Home Construction in Michigan

At Robertson Homes, we believe that building a new home means more than just choosing a floor plan or picking finishes. It's about creating a living space that feels right for your lifestyle, your family, and the future. For over 80 years, we’ve been building homes in Detroit and the surrounding suburbs with quality, care, and long-term value in mind—and that includes our commitment to sustainable building practices. Our new home builders in Detroit, MI, are ready to work with you to help create the home of your dreams.

We know that every homeowner wants a space that’s comfortable, beautiful, and efficient. That’s why we focus on creating energy efficient new homes and vibrant energy efficient communities that support the way people live today. From thoughtfully designed new townhomes to stylish single-family homes, our goal is to offer homes that not only look great but are built with intention.

Whether you’re a first-time buyer, downsizing, or upgrading to your dream home, Robertson Homes offers a wide range of homes designed with you in mind. We build in some of the most sought-after communities throughout Detroit and the surrounding suburbs, including Ann Arbor, Lyon Twp, Troy, Commerce, Bloomfield Hills, Farmington Hills, Novi, and Royal Oak.

Our new townhomes specialize in creating low-maintenance homes with open floorplans, spacious kitchens, attached garages, and stylish finishes. These townhomes are perfect for homeowners who want the benefits of a brand-new home without the upkeep of a larger yard.

Our detached condos combine the privacy of a single-family home with the ease of condo living. These innovative floorplans offer spacious, standalone residences with no shared walls, along with landscaping and exterior maintenance handled for you. It's the perfect solution for homeowners who want the freedom of their own home without the added upkeep.

We also offer a variety of single-family home plans that reflect timeless design with a modern touch. These homes feature spacious layouts, smart storage solutions, and beautiful curb appeal—everything you need to make a house feel like home.

At Robertson Homes, we are always looking for ways to reduce the environmental impact of our building practices while helping our homeowners save money and energy. While some aspects of energy efficiency depend on evolving materials and availability, we make intentional choices to support sustainability in each of our communities.

We focus on building energy efficient new homes that include advanced insulation, high-performance HVAC systems, energy-saving lighting, and modern appliances that support lower utility bills and long-term savings. We also incorporate smart home technology in many of our homes, giving our buyers better control over their energy use.

Our energy efficient communities are carefully planned to maximize comfort and minimize waste. We select our locations with walkability and access in mind, building near shops, schools, and parks to reduce long commutes and support connected lifestyles. Our communities often include green spaces and thoughtful landscaping, promoting a sense of balance and connection with nature.

While we understand that building materials and budgets can impact what’s possible for each home, our team works hard to ensure that sustainability remains a priority throughout the design and building process.

Personalizing your home is one of the most exciting parts of the homebuilding journey—and at Robertson Homes, we make it easy and enjoyable. After you’ve selected your floorplan and community, you’ll have the opportunity to visit our state-of-the-art Design Studio, where one of our professional design consultants will guide you through every step of the personalization process.

From cabinetry and countertops to flooring, lighting, and hardware, our Design Studio offers a wide range of curated options to suit your personal taste and lifestyle. Whether your style is modern, traditional, or something in between, we’ll help you create a look and feel that’s uniquely yours—without the stress of overwhelming choices or unexpected costs.

Our design experts work closely with each homeowner to ensure that every selection supports both style and function. We’re proud to offer beautiful, high-quality options that make your home feel special while supporting long-term durability and energy efficiency.

When you choose Robertson Homes, you’re not just buying a house, you’re working with a team that’s dedicated to making your experience positive from start to finish. We’ve spent decades perfecting our homebuilding process to ensure it’s streamlined, transparent, and responsive to your needs.

From land planning to construction, our approach is built on integrity and care. We don’t build on private properties, which allows us to focus fully on the development of thoughtfully planned neighborhoods that meet high standards for livability and sustainability. We handle the entire process in-house, from architectural planning to site development, so we can maintain the quality and consistency our homeowners expect.

Throughout the construction process, you’ll be kept informed with regular updates and walkthroughs. We’re here to answer your questions, address your concerns, and make sure you feel confident every step of the way.

After move-in, our Customer Care team is ready to support you with any questions or service needs that arise. It’s our way of ensuring that your home continues to meet your expectations long after the keys are in your hands.

As new home builders committed to the communities we serve, we know that the choices we make today will impact generations to come. That’s why we continue to invest in building practices, designs, and communities that reflect a smarter, more sustainable future.

Our homes are far from one-size-fits-all. Every home we build is thoughtfully planned, intentionally crafted, and tailored to support the needs of real people living real lives. From our new townhome superintendents to our community planners, everyone at Robertson Homes shares a common goal: to build better. If you’re ready to make your move into a home that’s stylish, efficient, and built with care, we invite you to explore our communities and see the Robertson Homes difference for yourself.
