A Home That Works With You — Not Against You

Thu, 11 Jun 2026 14:00:33 GMT

Why One-Level, Slab-on-Grade Living Makes sense this season of Life

At some point, the house you've loved for years starts asking more of you than it gives back.

Maybe it's the stairs you navigate a dozen times a day without thinking — until one morning you do think about it. Maybe it's the basement you haven't used in years, or the upper level that's become more storage than living space. Maybe you just find yourself wondering what it would feel like to have a home that was built for this season of life, not a season you've already lived.

That quiet question is worth listening to.

At Joshua Homes, we've been building one-level, slab-on-grade homes in the Sioux Falls area for nearly 30 years. And we've watched a lot of people make this move — and breathe a little easier once they do.

What "Slab-on-Grade" Actually Means

It's a construction term, but the idea behind it is simple.

A slab-on-grade home is built directly on a solid concrete foundation at ground level. There's no basement below, no raised entry to step up into. You walk from your garage or front door straight into your living space — flat, smooth, and easy.

That's it. And it turns out that simple thing makes a world of difference.

The Safety You Don't Have to Think About

One of the greatest gifts a well-designed home can give you is confidence — the kind that comes from not having to think twice about moving through your own space.

Stairs are one of the most common sources of falls at home, and falls are a serious concern for adults as they get older. The South Dakota Department of Health reported in 2025 that fall-related deaths among South Dakotans aged 65 and older increased 9% in a single year — and our state's rate is well above the national average. These aren't numbers meant to frighten anyone. They're a reminder that where and how we live genuinely matters.

A slab-on-grade home doesn't eliminate every risk. But it removes one of the most significant ones — and it does it without grab bars on every wall or the feel of a medical facility. It just feels like a beautiful, thoughtfully built home. Because that's exactly what it is.

Wide doorways. Open floor plans. A garage entry that flows right into the kitchen or mudroom. Everything on one level, always within easy reach. This is what aging in place actually looks like when it's done right — not retrofitted, but designed from the ground up with your comfort in mind.

Built to Last, Built to Save

There's a practical side to slab-on-grade construction that's worth knowing, too.

Concrete holds warmth naturally. The thermal mass of a slab foundation absorbs heat during the day and releases it gradually — which means your home stays more comfortable in every season, and your energy bills reflect that. In a South Dakota winter, that's not a small thing.

Without a basement, there's also less to maintain and less to worry about. No sump pump. No moisture management. No concerns during high-water periods. Plumbing and electrical systems are protected within the slab itself, away from the elements — which means they last longer and need less attention over time.

Less to fix. Less to worry about. More time for everything else.

Designed for How You Actually Want to Live

Our slab-on-grade twin homes in Sioux Falls — in neighborhoods like Whisper Ridge and Maple Rock on the southeast side, and Stone Ridge near Brandon — aren't designed to be practical at the expense of beautiful. They're both.

Sizes range from around 1,000 square feet to over 2,000, depending on what fits your life. Clean finishes. Thoughtful layouts. Quiet, low-traffic neighborhoods where you actually know your neighbors. This is the home you've earned — and it shows.

For those drawn to Clear Lake, Iowa, our Pine Brooke and Sunset Ridge communities offer that same quality and intentionality in a peaceful lake-country setting.

Ready to See What's Possible?

If you've been turning this idea over in your mind, you're not alone — and you don't have to figure it out by yourself.

We'd love to walk you through what a Joshua Home looks like, answer your questions, and let you decide what feels right. No pressure. No rush. Just a real conversation with people who've been doing this a long time and genuinely love what they build.

Less to Maintain, More to Love

The Twin Home Lifestyle — and Why It Makes So Much This Stage in Life.

Picture a Saturday morning in July.

You're sitting in your four seasons room with a warm cup of coffee, watching the sun come up. It's already getting warm outside — the kind of morning that used to mean one thing: time to mow.

Not anymore.

The lawn gets taken care of. The trimming gets done. All summer long, week after week, without you lifting a finger. You just sit there, coffee in hand, and enjoy the view.

That's not a small thing.

For the people who've made the move into one of our Joshua Homes twin home communities, it's one of the first things they mention — and they're usually smiling when they say it.

Own Your Home. Let Go of the Work.

A twin home — sometimes called a villa or patio home — shares one wall with a neighboring home. That's the only difference between it and a traditional single-family home. One wall.

But here's what that one wall unlocks: a level of care, community, and ease that most people didn't know was available to them at this price point.

In our twin home neighborhoods, lawn care and snow removal are handled through HOA-style maintenance. That means the grass gets mowed on schedule all summer long. The driveway and walks get cleared after every snowfall. The exterior stays maintained. And you don't lift a finger for any of it.

You still own your home. You still build equity. You still have your own garage, your own front door, your own finished space designed the way you want it. But the part of homeownership that's started to feel like a second job? That part's done.

And it goes beyond the lawn. Garbage service is included too — which means no cans sitting at the end of the driveway all day, no bins blowing down the street, no scheduling your week around pickup day. You won't even hear the truck.

The neighborhood just stays clean, quiet, and well-kept. Always. Because that's the standard everyone here shares.

No Snow, No Mow, Just Go

One of the things people love most about this lifestyle — and they often don't see it coming — is how free they suddenly feel to just go.

Drive down to see the kids for a long weekend. Spend two weeks with the grandkids. Head south for part of the winter. Take that trip you've been talking about for years.

When your home is taken care of, you don't have to arrange anything before you leave. Nobody needs to come check on the yard. Nobody needs to plow your driveway while you're gone. You just lock the door and go — and come back to everything exactly as you left it. No snow, no blow, just go. That's not a slogan. That's a Saturday.

That kind of freedom is hard to put a price on. But it's one of the things our homeowners talk about most — and it's exactly what we had in mind when we built these communities.

Smart Financially, Not Just Practically

Here's something worth understanding about twin homes that surprises a lot of people.

Because you share one wall with your neighbor, the cost to build and heat your home is meaningfully lower than a comparable standalone home. You're not sacrificing quality or space. You're simply sharing the efficiency — and keeping more of your money.

For couples managing retirement income thoughtfully, or for someone building this next chapter on their own terms, the twin home model is genuinely smart. You're not renting. You're not giving up ownership. You're owning a well-built home in a quiet neighborhood — and doing it in a way that gives your budget room to breathe.

Our communities are priced to reflect that.

Quality construction. Real value. A neighborhood that stays well-kept because everyone has a shared interest in keeping it that way.

Quiet Neighborhoods. Good Neighbors.

We're intentional about where we build.

Our twin home communities in Sioux Falls — Whisper Ridge and Maple Rock in the southeast, and Stone Ridge just outside Brandon — are low-traffic, peaceful neighborhoods. Not isolated. Just calm. The kind of places where people wave from the driveway and actually mean it.

For those who love Iowa's lake country, Pine Brooke and Sunset Ridge in Clear Lake offer that same sense of community in a beautiful setting — with the added backdrop of everything Clear Lake has to offer.

These aren't developments. They're neighborhoods. And there's a difference.

This Is the Part Nobody Talks About Enough

There's something that happens when you stop spending your weekends maintaining a home that's more than you need.

You get your time back. You get your energy back. And a lot of people find — maybe for the first time in a long time — that they have real space to think about what they actually want to do next.

That's the thing we're most proud of, honestly. Not the square footage or the finishes or the floor plans (though we're proud of those too). It's the conversations we have with homeowners six months after they've moved in. They're lighter. They're doing more. They're living the way they always planned to when this season came.

That's what this is really about.

Let's Have a Conversation

If the idea of this kind of life sounds good to you — even a little — we'd love to talk.

No pressure, no sales pitch. Just Tim Stenberg and a team that's been building homes and relationships in this community for nearly 30 years, ready to answer your questions and help you figure out if this is the right fit.

Inside 2610 Whisper Trail

Mon, 11 May 2026 20:22:11 GMT

A Closer Look at Our 2025 Parade of Homes Feature Home

4 Bedrooms | 3 Bathrooms | 3,114 Sq Ft | Whisper Ridge, Sioux Falls

Every so often, a home comes together in a way that stops people in the doorway. They walk in, take a look around, and just go quiet for a second.

That's what we kept seeing at 2610 Whisper Trail during the 2025 Parade of Homes.

This home — nestled in our Whisper Ridge community on Sioux Falls' southeast side — is 3,114 square feet of thoughtful design, premium finishes, and the kind of craftsmanship that's hard to rush and impossible to fake. Listed at $869,000, it's a home built for people who know what they want and aren't willing to settle for less.

We're proud of everything we build. But this one is something special. Here's a closer look at why.

The Moment you Walk In

First impressions matter — and the main living area of 2610 Whisper Trail makes one you won't forget.

Nine-foot ceilings open the space up immediately, giving the entire main floor a sense of ease and light that you feel before you can put words to it. Wide-plank wood floors run throughout, warm and grounded, tying everything together without demanding attention. And anchoring the living room: a stunning stone fireplace that gives the space exactly the kind of soul a great room needs.

This is the kind of room you want to come home to. The kind you don't want to leave.

A Kitchen Worth Gathering In

The kitchen at 2610 Whisper Trail is built for people who cook — and for people who just love being in a beautiful space while someone else does.

Matte quartz countertops run across generous prep surfaces, their finish refined and understated in the best possible way. Custom cabinetry brings both storage and character — designed for this kitchen, not pulled from a catalog.

And the layout flows naturally into a large dining area made for long meals, good conversation, and the kind of gatherings that stretch into the evening.

The Primary Suite

A great primary suite does two things: it gives you space to exhale at the end of the day, and it starts your morning right. This one does both.

The en suite bathroom centers around a beautifully tiled walk-in shower — clean lines, quality materials, the kind of finish you'd expect in a high-end hotel and want to come home to every night. The walk-in closet is genuinely large — organized, accessible, and built to handle a full wardrobe without feeling cramped.

This is the retreat you've been wanting.

The Finished Basement — More Home Below

One of the things that surprised the most people on parade day was stepping downstairs.

The finished basement at 2610 Whisper Trail is a full extension of the home — not a storage space dressed up, but a genuine living area. A wet bar anchors one side, perfect for hosting, unwinding, or both.

The additional living space is wide open and ready to become whatever you need it to be — a family room, a media room, a place for the grandkids to take over when they visit.

The Garage That Finishes the Picture

If you've ever settled for a two-stall garage and spent the next decade regretting it, you'll appreciate this one immediately.

The three-stall finished heated garage at 2610 Whisper Trail is the kind of space that makes a South Dakota winter considerably more bearable. Finished walls. Heat. Room for vehicles, storage, hobbies, or whatever matters to you.

It's not an afterthought — it's a selling point in its own right.

Whisper Ridge — The Neighborhood Behind the Home

2610 Whisper Trail sits in Whisper Ridge, one of our signature twin home communities on Sioux Falls' southeast side.

Quiet streets. Well-kept homes. HOA-managed lawn care, snow removal, and garbage service — so the neighborhood always looks the way it should, without anyone having to think twice about it.

It's the kind of community where you actually know your neighbors. Where the streets stay peaceful and the yards stay clean. Where you can lock the door, leave for the weekend, and come back to everything exactly as you left it.

Come See it for Yourself

Photos do their best. But there's something about standing in a home like this that a screen can't fully capture — the way the light moves through it, the way the finishes feel, the way the whole thing just comes together.

If 2610 Whisper Trail has your attention, we'd love to set up a time to walk you through it. And if you're curious about other homes or homesites in Whisper Ridge, our team is ready to help you find the right fit.

Spring 2025 Home Design: Timeless by Design

Fri, 14 Mar 2025 08:15:24 GMT

Spring isn’t just about warmer days and blooming flowers—it’s a time of transition. And for those who are moving into a new chapter of life, it’s the perfect season to rethink what “home” really means. Maybe the kids are grown, and it’s time to create a space that’s truly yours. Or maybe you’re ready for a home that blends luxury with ease—where every detail is designed for both beauty and practicality.

In Sioux Falls, custom homebuilding is evolving. Homeowners are looking beyond trends and focusing on timeless elegance, smart design, and the little luxuries that make everyday living better. If that sounds like you, here’s what’s shaping high-end homes in 2025.

1. One-Level Living That Feels Expansive

A well-designed home should feel effortless, and nothing does that better than a layout with everything you need on one floor. Wide, open spaces, seamless transitions between rooms, and soaring ceilings create an airy, sophisticated atmosphere. Picture a kitchen that flows into the living room, bathed in natural light from floor-to-ceiling windows—no awkward hallways or unused corners, just pure functionality wrapped in style.

2. Warm, Earthy Tones with Bold Personality

Forget the cool grays of the past decade. This year, interiors are embracing rich, earthy hues—think warm taupe, deep olive, and the kind of sunbaked terracotta you’d see on a Tuscan villa. But it’s not just about neutrals. People are weaving in personality with bold florals, moody accent walls, and playful tile patterns. It’s about striking the balance between grounded and vibrant, classic and fresh.

3. Luxe Materials That Do the Work for You

If there’s one thing that defines this stage of life, it’s the desire for quality over quantity. Homeowners are choosing high-end finishes that aren’t just beautiful but also built to last. Engineered quartz countertops that mimic marble without the upkeep, wide-plank hardwood floors with a timeless patina, and artisanal light fixtures that double as statement pieces—these are the details that make a house feel luxurious without the high maintenance.

4. Smart Home Features That Just Make Sense

Technology in high-end homes isn’t about having the latest gadgets—it’s about making life simpler. Automated lighting that adjusts throughout the day, voice-controlled climate settings, security systems that offer peace of mind, and hidden built-in speakers that bring music to every corner of the house. A true luxury home in 2025 isn’t just stylish—it’s intuitive.

5. Outdoor Spaces That Feel Like a Getaway

Spring in Sioux Falls means spending more time outdoors, and home design is reflecting that shift. Patios are turning into fully realized living spaces with plush seating, built-in fire pits, and outdoor kitchens designed for entertaining. Landscaping is becoming more intentional, with native plants and natural stone pathways that require less upkeep but add a refined touch. It’s about creating a space where a morning cup of coffee in the fresh air feels like a daily retreat.

6. Right-Sized

Bigger isn’t always better. Homeowners are opting for homes that are designed to fit their lifestyle—no unnecessary rooms, no wasted space. Instead, it’s about maximizing every inch. Think cozy reading nooks, a dedicated space for hobbies, and built-in storage that keeps everything in its place. The focus is on living well, not just living large.

The Bottom Line

Spring is a season of renewal, and for those stepping into this next phase of homeownership, it’s the perfect time to create a space that truly reflects who you are now. In Sioux Falls, custom homes are evolving into refined, high-functioning retreats—places where style, comfort, and smart design come together effortlessly.

Thinking about making a change? Built by Joshua specializes in creating homes designed for this moment in life. Let’s talk about what your next chapter could look like.

Home Design Trends 2024: A Conversation with Tim Stenberg

Fri, 26 Apr 2024 08:24:04 GMT

As we step into 2024, the world of home design is buzzing with fresh ideas, innovative materials, and a renewed focus on comfort and sustainability. To gain deeper insights, I had the privilege of sitting down with Mr. Tim Stenberg, the driving force behind Joshua Homes—a name synonymous with elegance, functionality, and timeless design

1) Harmonious Minimalism

“In 2024, we’re witnessing a shift towards harmonious minimalism,” says Tim. “Homeowners are seeking spaces that declutter the mind and allow room for creativity. Clean lines, neutral palettes, and purposeful design elements create a serene environment.”

2) Biophilic Design

“Bringing nature indoors is a trend that’s here to stay,” Tim emphasizes. “Biophilic design integrates natural materials, abundant greenery, and ample natural light. Think living walls, large windows, and sustainable wood finishes.”

3) Smart Homes with Purpose

“Smart technology isn’t just about gadgets,” Tim explains. “It’s about enhancing our lives. In 2024, we’re integrating smart features seamlessly—whether it’s energy-efficient lighting, intuitive climate control, or security systems that prioritize safety.”

4) Multifunctional Spaces

“Our homes need to adapt,” Tim asserts. “Multifunctional spaces are key. Imagine a dining area that transforms into a home office during the day or a cozy reading nook that doubles as a guest bedroom.”

5) Earthy Textures and Tones

“Warmth and texture are essential,” Tim shares. “We’re seeing a surge in earthy tones— rust, terracotta, and deep greens. These hues evoke a sense of grounding and connection.”

6) Curated Artisanal Pieces

“Mass-produced furniture is losing its appeal,” Tim observes. “Homeowners crave uniqueness. Artisanal pieces—handcrafted ceramics, bespoke furniture, and custom textiles—add character and soul to a space.”

7) Outdoor Sanctuaries

“Our outdoor spaces deserve attention,” Tim insists. “Whether it’s a rooftop garden, a cozy patio, or a serene balcony, homeowners are investing in creating outdoor sanctuaries for relaxation and reflection.”

8) Sustainable Materials

“Eco-consciousness is no longer a trend; it’s a responsibility,” Tim declares. “From recycled glass countertops to reclaimed wood flooring, sustainable materials are at the forefront of design choices.”

Parting Thoughts

As our conversation concludes, Tim leaves us with a powerful message:

“Design isn’t just about aesthetics; it’s about enhancing lives. Let’s create homes that inspire, nurture, and stand the test of time.”

Construction Market Outlook 2024: A Thriving Sioux Falls

Wed, 24 Apr 2024 08:25:48 GMT

!Sioux Falls Construction

As the sun rises over the picturesque landscape of Sioux Falls, a sense of optimism permeates the air. The construction industry, a vital pillar of our community, stands poised for another remarkable year. I had the privilege of sitting down with Mr. Tim Stenberg, the visionary Founder of Joshua Homes, to discuss what lies ahead for our beloved city.

1. Prosperity in the Pipeline

“Sioux Falls is more than a city; it’s a thriving community,” Tim Stenberg asserts. “As we step into 2024, we anticipate another prosperous year for Joshua Homes and our entire Sioux Falls family.”

The construction market echoes this sentiment. With a robust economy, low unemployment rates, and a steady influx of new residents, Sioux Falls remains a beacon of growth. From residential developments to commercial spaces, construction projects dot our skyline, each brick and beam contributing to our collective progress.

2. Joshua Homes: A Legacy of Excellence

“Our commitment to quality and innovation drives us forward,” Tim shares. “Joshua Homes has been woven into the fabric of Sioux Falls for decades. We take pride in crafting homes that blend timeless design with modern functionality. ” Joshua Homes’ portfolio boasts stunning residences, each reflecting the unique aspirations of its occupants. From cozy bungalows to sprawling estates, their craftsmanship stands as a testament to unwavering dedication.

3. Sustainable Building Practices

“Sustainability isn’t a buzzword; it’s our responsibility,” Tim emphasizes. “In 2024, Joshua Homes continues to prioritize eco-friendly practices. Energy-efficient designs, smart home features, and thoughtful material choices define our approach.”

As green initiatives gain momentum, Sioux Falls embraces sustainable construction. Energy-efficient HVAC systems are no longer optional—they’re integral to our vision of a resilient future.

4. Community-Centric Spaces

“A home isn’t just walls and a roof,” Tim muses. “It’s where memories are made, where families gather, and where dreams take root.” Joshua Homes focuses on creating community-centric spaces. Parks, walking trails, and communal gardens enhance neighborhoods, fostering connections among residents. The heartbeat of Sioux Falls lies not only in its structures but in the shared experiences of those who call it home.

5. Collaborations and Partnerships

“We’re stronger together,” Tim believes. “Collaboration fuels progress.”

Joshua Homes collaborates with local artisans, suppliers, and fellow builders. Whether it’s sourcing reclaimed wood or commissioning custom artwork, these partnerships infuse character into every project. The construction market thrives when we lift one another—a sentiment ingrained in Sioux Falls’ DNA.

6. A Grateful City

“We are truly blessed,” Tim reflects. “Blessed to be in a city that remains prosperous and growing. Blessed to build homes that shelter dreams and witness lives unfolding within their walls.”

As cranes stretch toward the sky and blueprints come to life, Sioux Falls stands at the intersection of tradition and progress. Our construction market isn’t merely about erecting structures; it’s about shaping the narrative of our future.

So, as the hammer strikes and concrete sets, let us remember that each nail driven is a testament to resilience, community, and hope.
