The Work
Raykon builds mountain-modern estates in timber, stone, and glass. Woodwork is the signature: the firm's stated focus is detailed woodworking and cabinetry, and it shows across their parade homes — custom interior and exterior timbers, raftered ceilings, staircases with radius detailing. Founder Casey Cloward started as a woodworker and cabinet builder. Interiors run light and airy, with soaring ceilings and walls of windows set to the mountain views. Their two 2026 entries show the range: Sunset Haven (#4, Alpine) pairs the craft with resort-scale amenities — an indoor sports court, a 20×40 pool, 1,250 square feet of elevated deck — while House of Four Chairs (#28) goes Modern European countryside, with a fountain courtyard and old-world stone. Big homes, composed rather than showy.
Scale
Their two 2026 parade entries measured 9,045 and 9,200 square feet, and House of Four Chairs carried an official $4.5–5.0M price range — squarely inside the firm's stated 8,000–15,000 sq ft, $3–8M band. Nothing in their public record suggests they build below it. If your project is under ~$3M, you'd be asking an estate builder to work beneath their scale.

Who they're a great fit for
Buyers building a true estate-scale home ($3M+) who want a builder whose entire portfolio lives at that scale — and who plan to be an engaged, present owner during the build, since the firm's process is built around on-site client involvement.
