Traditional joinery techniques meet modern engineering standards in our work. Whether creating a grand entrance, intimate bar area, or covered outdoor space with views of the tennis courts, we deliver craftsmanship that guests notice and remember.
Middleburg’s history provides exceptional opportunities for adaptive reuse projects. We specialize in transforming historic buildings into luxury boutique hotels while preserving architectural integrity. Our restoration work has earned recognition including the C. Emlen Urban Adaptive Reuse Award.

Building luxury hospitality spaces in Virginia’s horse and wine country presents unique opportunities and challenges. We’ve completed projects throughout Virginia and understand what it takes to deliver boutique hotels that reflect local character while meeting modern guest expectations.
| Challenge | What It Looks Like | How We Help |
|---|---|---|
Preserving Historic Character | Many Middleburg properties have significant architectural history that must be honored while adding modern amenities. | Our restoration expertise ensures period details remain intact while integrating spa facilities, fitness centers, and luxury suites seamlessly. |
Meeting Loudoun County Regulations | Virginia’s historic districts have specific building codes and approval processes that can delay projects. | We guide you through permitting, work with local authorities, and ensure compliance with all Loudoun County requirements from day one. |
Balancing Luxury with Operational Efficiency | Guests expect impeccable service and comfort, but hotels need efficient layouts and systems to maintain profitability. | Our preconstruction planning optimizes floor plans, mechanical systems, and construction methods to deliver both guest satisfaction and operational savings. |
Weather-Dependent Construction Schedules | Virginia’s climate creates seasonal challenges for exterior work, timber installation, and site preparation. | We develop realistic schedules accounting for weather patterns, protect materials properly, and sequence work to minimize weather-related delays. |
Creating Distinctive Guest Experiences | Generic hotel construction won’t capture the wine country elegance and equestrian heritage that define Middleburg. | We incorporate custom timber elements, thoughtful interior design integration, and architectural details that reflect Virginia countryside character in every space. |
Coordinating Complex Hospitality Systems | Modern boutique hotels require sophisticated mechanical, plumbing, electrical, and technology systems working together flawlessly. | Our construction management expertise ensures all specialized trades coordinate effectively, systems integrate properly, and everything functions perfectly at opening. |
Boutique hotel construction costs vary significantly based on property size, luxury level, site conditions, and whether you’re building new or renovating historic structures. Costs typically range from $250 to $500+ per square foot for high-end hospitality construction in Virginia. Middleburg’s proximity to Washington attracts discerning guests expecting excellence in architecture and residential-quality finishes. We provide transparent pricing during preconstruction planning and work with your budget to maximize value. Our detailed cost breakdowns help you make informed decisions about where to invest for the best guest experience and return.
We bring specialized expertise in three critical areas: commercial construction management for complex hospitality projects, timber craftsmanship that creates distinctive architectural character, and award-winning historic restoration capabilities. Unlike typical commercial contractors, we self-perform most work with our expert craftsmen, giving us direct control over quality and schedules. Our portfolio includes everything from Passive House certified buildings to adaptive reuse projects that have earned regional recognition. We’re proud to deliver the same commitment to excellence whether building intimate boutique properties or comprehensive resort facilities with residences and leisure amenities.
Construction timelines depend on project scope, but typical boutique hotel projects range from 12 to 24 months from groundbreaking to opening. Renovation projects in historic buildings may take 8 to 18 months depending on preservation requirements. Projects incorporating equestrian centers, spa facilities, or residential components require additional time for coordination. Preconstruction planning adds 2 to 4 months but ensures realistic schedules and prevents costly surprises. Virginia’s seasonal weather patterns influence outdoor work, so we schedule strategically. We’ll develop a detailed timeline during preconstruction that accounts for your specific property and opening goals.
The decision depends on your vision, budget, site availability, and timeline. New construction offers complete design freedom and modern building systems but requires suitable land and extensive permitting in this historic town. Adaptive reuse of existing buildings can be faster, more affordable, and aligns with sustainability goals while preserving community character. Middleburg’s architecture reflects centuries of Virginia living, and thoughtful renovations honor that heritage. We help evaluate both options during initial consultation, considering structural conditions, zoning regulations, and how each approach serves your boutique hotel concept for welcoming guests.
Absolutely. We partner with architects and interior design professionals throughout the project, bringing construction expertise to the collaborative process. Our preconstruction services help translate design concepts into buildable, budget-conscious plans. We provide valuable input on materials, construction methods, and Virginia building codes that inform design decisions early. Strong collaboration between our construction team and your design partners ensures the finished boutique hotel matches your vision while meeting practical hospitality requirements. We understand how architecture shapes the guest experience and work to deliver spaces that host memorable visits.
Passive House construction delivers exceptional energy efficiency that reduces operational costs significantly while providing superior guest comfort. High-performance building envelopes maintain consistent temperatures with minimal HVAC energy, creating ideal environments for relaxation. We also specialize in adaptive reuse, which is inherently sustainable by preserving existing structures and embodied carbon. Additional options include responsibly sourced timber, efficient mechanical systems, and renewable energy integration. We guide you toward sustainable choices that align with your brand values and generate long-term savings while delivering the excellence guests expect from luxury resorts.
Yes. We have extensive experience building equestrian centers including stables, indoor riding arenas, and barn structures that complement boutique hotel properties. Virginia’s horse country culture, exemplified by properties like Salamander Resort, creates unique opportunities for boutique hotels to offer distinctive guest experiences. Our commercial construction expertise extends to winery facilities, event spaces, and outdoor amenities. We coordinate all aspects of these specialized facilities as part of comprehensive resort development, whether you’re creating a standalone boutique hotel or an integrated property with residential components and leisure amenities.
For properties remaining partially operational during renovation, we develop phased construction schedules that minimize guest disruption. Our team coordinates work during off-peak hours or slower seasons, maintains clean and safe work areas, and sequences construction to allow sections of the property to remain open. Clear communication with your management team ensures everyone understands weekly schedules and any temporary impacts. We’ve completed numerous occupied building renovations and understand the importance of protecting your reputation and revenue. Our goal is ensuring guests enjoy their visit even while forward-looking improvements happen around them.
We stand behind our work with comprehensive warranties covering materials and workmanship. Specific warranty terms are outlined in your construction contract and typically include one-year coverage for construction work plus manufacturer warranties for materials and equipment. Our commitment extends beyond project completion. We provide responsive service to address any concerns as your boutique hotel opens its doors to family travelers, leisure guests, and Washington area visitors. Many clients return for additional projects or renovations, reflecting the relationships we build and the quality we deliver. We’re proud of every detail we install.
Construction projects inevitably encounter surprises, especially in historic building renovations common in Middleburg. Our preconstruction planning minimizes unknowns through thorough site assessments and structural evaluations. When challenges arise, we present clear options with cost and schedule implications so you can make informed decisions quickly. Our experienced team solves problems creatively without compromising quality. Transparent communication means you’re never caught off guard. Whether adapting to unexpected site conditions or coordinating with local regulations, we move your project forward with the same care and excellence we’d want for our own investment in this exceptional town.
