Haven

A light, architectural design for agents selling at the top of the market — where the photography is the pitch and discretion is the selling point.

View Live Demo Start With This Design

You're choosing a design. I build the site.

This isn't a file you download or a theme you install. There's no page builder to learn and nothing to configure yourself.

You pick this design, send me your listings and photography, and I build your site around it by hand — colours, type and layout adjusted to your brokerage.

Two costs, quoted separately

The build — a one-time fee covering design adaptation, building every page with your content, and launch. Quoted once I know your page count.

Hosting & care — a separate monthly cost that keeps the site online, secure and backed up. Quoted alongside the build so you see both numbers before committing.

The demo uses placeholder listings. Yours would carry your properties, your photography, your name.

The Process

From here to live

Two to Four Weeks

01

You pick Haven

Get in touch and tell me this is the direction. We talk through your market and what the site needs to do.

02

You send listings

Property photography, specs, prices, your bio and licence details. I send a checklist so nothing is missed.

03

I build it

I adapt the design to your brand and build every page by hand, showing you progress as I go.

04

We launch

Domain connected, search and analytics set up, and a walkthrough so you can add new listings yourself.

The Feel

Quiet, not loud

Nothing here shouts. At this end of the market, restraint reads as confidence — the photography does the selling and the design gets out of the way.

  • Warm limestone palette, not the usual navy and gold
  • Marcellus for headings — classical, architectural
  • Sections reveal with a soft mask wipe
  • A circular cursor tag follows you across the gallery
  • Property images drift slowly on hover
  • Generous whitespace so listings breathe
  • Honours reduced-motion accessibility settings

What It Costs

Build, then hosting

Quoted Separately

One-Time

The Build

Design adapted to your brokerage, every page built with your listings and photography, enquiry form connected, and launch handled.

Quoted per project — it depends on how many pages and listings you need, and whether you want a searchable property archive. You'll have a fixed number before anything starts.

Monthly

Hosting & Care

Keeps the site online, fast, secure and backed up, with software kept current.

Separate from the build — quoted at the same time so you see both numbers together. Adding and removing listings can be included if you'd rather not do it yourself.

Good to Know

Common Questions

Before We Start

Am I buying a template to install myself?

No. You're choosing a design direction. There's nothing to download or configure — I build the site for you using your listings and photography. You never touch a page builder.

Can I add and remove listings myself?

Yes. Before launch I walk you through adding a property, swapping photography, and marking something sold. If you'd rather I handle it, that can be part of your monthly plan.

Can it connect to the MLS or an IDX feed?

That's possible but it's a bigger build, and IDX providers charge their own monthly fee. Most agents at this level list a small number of properties by hand, which is what this design is built for. Tell me what you need and I'll quote it honestly.

What if I have far more than nine listings?

Then Haven isn't the right starting point as-is — it's designed for a curated portfolio, not high volume. I'd either adapt it with a filterable archive or suggest a different structure.

Do I need professional photography?

For this design, yes — honestly. It's built to let large images carry the page, and phone photos will undercut it. If you don't have a photographer, I can recommend one.

Can the design be changed?

Colours, type, imagery and section order are all adjusted to fit your brand — that's part of the build. Anything structurally different becomes a custom project and I'll quote it as one.

Do I own the website?

Yes. The files, domain and content are yours. If you ever move to another host or designer, everything transfers.

Do you only work with agents in Los Angeles?

No — I work with businesses anywhere in the US. If you're local we can meet in person; everywhere else we do it over Zoom.

Want something
entirely your own?

If none of the designs fit, I build from a blank page too. Same process, more discovery.
