The Heart Behind Every Home: Our Capital Family
November 24, 2025
As we step into the season of gratitude, we can’t help but reflect on what truly makes Capital Homes special—and it always comes back to our people. Not just employees… our family. The ones who show up every day with their gifts, their integrity, their good attitudes, and their hard-earned efforts. The ones who pour themselves into their work because they care about the homes we build and the people we serve.In this industry, it’s easy to talk about lumber, timelines, and floor plans, but at the heart of it all are the individuals who bring these homes to life. The ones who stay late to solve a problem, who step in to help a teammate without being asked, who take pride in every detail because they know families will make memories there. That kind of dedication can’t be taught—it comes from people who genuinely care.At Capital Homes, we don’t take that for granted. We cherish every person who makes up this team. Your strengths, your patience, your creativity, your grit, and even your humor on the hard days… all of it contributes to who we are and what we’re able to accomplish together. It’s a rare thing to work alongside people who feel like an extension of your own family, and it’s something we are deeply thankful for.As Thanksgiving approaches, we just want each of you to know how much you matter. We see your efforts. We appreciate your heart. And we are incredibly proud of the work we do because of the people behind it.From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for everything you bring to Capital Homes. We hope this Thanksgiving brings you rest, joy, and plenty of time with the people you love most.Happy Thanksgiving to our Capital Homes family. You are truly what makes this place feel like home. 🧡

Why the Tacoma Floor Plan Continues to be a Customer Favorite
November 10, 2025
If there’s one floor plan that always seems to win hearts, it’s the Tacoma by Capital Homes. It’s easy to see why this design has become a long-standing favorite among families across Owasso, Bixby, and Broken Arrow—it just works. From the layout to the livability, every detail feels intentional and comfortable, like it was designed with real life in mind.The Tacoma is a 1,961-square-foot home featuring 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, and a private study with beautiful French doors—a space that’s as versatile as it is charming. Whether you need a quiet home office, a playroom, or a cozy reading nook, it adapts perfectly to your lifestyle.But what really makes this plan stand out is how open and inviting it feels. The kitchen flows right into the dining and living areas, so you’re never far from the action when you’re cooking or entertaining. Large windows fill the space with natural light, and the thoughtful touches—like wood beams and a spacious primary suite—bring that perfect mix of warmth and sophistication.It’s no surprise that the Tacoma has earned Parade of Homes awards for two years in a row. Year after year, it captures attention not just for its beautiful design, but for how livable and timeless it is. Homeowners love that it offers room to grow, space to gather, and little details that make daily life easier.You can find the Tacoma in several of our communities—The Estates at Ridgewood in Broken Arrow, Bixby Village and Elysian Fields in Bixby, and The Reserve at Parker Village in Owasso, just to name a few. Each location offers something special, from scenic walking trails to family-friendly parks and great schools nearby.If you’re looking for a home that’s both stylish and practical—one that’s been tested, loved, and celebrated—the Tacoma might just be the perfect fit. It’s more than a floor plan; it’s a place where life unfolds beautifully.
The Birch: Spacious, Smart, and Designed for Real Life
November 4, 2025
You know how sometimes you walk into a home and it just feels right? That’s what The Birch does. It’s that rare combination of thoughtful design, everyday functionality, and just the right amount of “wow.”When I first saw The Birch by Capital Homes, my immediate thought was — this is how families actually live today. With four bedrooms, two and a half bathrooms, and a layout that flows beautifully, The Birch strikes a perfect balance between openness and privacy. It’s roomy, comfortable, and endlessly adaptable — whether you’re hosting family holidays, managing a busy weekday routine, or just enjoying a quiet morning coffee by the fireplace.What Makes The Birch Stand OutEvery inch of this plan feels intentional. The open-concept kitchen and family room invite connection, while the private primary suite on the opposite side of the home offers that little slice of quiet we all crave. There’s also a flex space that can easily be a home office, a playroom, or that dreamy craft room you’ve been imagining.And because Capital Homes never forgets the details, The Birch comes with those subtle design touches that make a home feel finished — shiplap accents around the fireplace, bullnose corners, rich wood beams, and window casings that frame every room with character. Add in the three-car garage (perfect for storage, hobbies, or a teenager’s first car) and you’ve got a floor plan that truly lives as good as it looks.Now Available on Half-Acre Lots in OwassoHere’s where it gets even better — The Birch is now available on half-acre homesites at The Woodlands at Elm Creek in Owasso. That’s right — space to breathe, play, garden, and stretch out a bit without losing the convenience of being close to everything.For me, that’s the dream combination: a peaceful neighborhood where the kids can ride their bikes on quiet streets, but you’re still just a quick drive to great schools, shopping, and restaurants. Owasso’s small-town charm meets modern comfort — and The Woodlands at Elm Creek captures that perfectly.Why Homebuyers Love The Woodlands at Elm CreekThere’s something special about this community. It’s not just the wide, tree-lined streets or the half-acre lots that give you room for outdoor living. It’s the feel of the place — friendly neighbors, thoughtful landscaping, and the kind of serenity that makes coming home feel like an exhale.Plus, The Woodlands at Elm Creek is just minutes from Highway 169, making commutes to Tulsa a breeze. You get the space and tranquility of country living, without being “out in the country.”If you’ve been looking for a home that balances beauty, function, and breathing room — The Birch at The Woodlands at Elm Creek might just be your “someday” home that’s ready right now. Step inside and you’ll see what I mean. The layout feels intuitive, the details feel personal, and the setting — those gorgeous half-acre lots — adds a level of comfort you can’t find just anywhere.Come see it for yourself, and imagine your next chapter unfolding here.→ Schedule a tour today at CapitalHomes.com or visit our model home in The Woodlands at Elm Creek in Owasso.
