HISTORY
Upon
graduating from the Kansas University School of
Architecture in 1974 with a Bachelor of
Environmental Design, Robert Montgomery, founder
of Robert Montgomery Homes, Inc., spent the
following year with an architectural firm in
North Kansas City, Missouri. Being one to prefer
a more hands-on approach to architecture, he was
very enthusiastic when he received a proposal
from a fellow Kansas University graduate in
Boulder, Colorado to form a partnership
specializing in residential construction. It was
in Boulder where he developed his true passion
for building custom homes.
Montgomery
returned to his native Kansas City in 1977 and
began designing and building homes on
speculation. He became well respected in the
building community and was referred to as "a
triple threat in home building" in the
November 23, 1980 issue of The Kansas City Star.
As the article explained, "Montgomery shifts
easily from the architect's drawing board to the
general contractor's scheduling sheet to the
carpenter's nail belt . . . Total involvement is
the only way Montgomery wants to build homes -
partly because of the kind of homes he builds.
Traditional in design, they're replete with
authentic detail work aimed at providing charm
and character."
Montgomery's homes
have been featured in several issues of Kansas
City Homes & Gardens Magazine, including
July/August 1989, November/December 1994,
March/April 1995, March/April 1996, March/April
1998, November/December 1999, and May/June 2000.
His own custom designed and built home was
featured in the August 1995 issue of Kansas City
Magazine. In addition, the first annual edition
of Kansas City Home Design (1996 Home Resource
Guide) featured a Robert Montgomery Home on the
front cover.
During
the past twenty five years, Montgomery has built
homes in the finest subdivisions located in the
greater Kansas City area, including Mission
Hills, Indian Hills, Hallbrook Farms, Briarcliff
West, Loch Lloyd, Royce, Chartwell, Corinth
Hills, Corinth Downs, Oxford Pointe, King's
Forest, Mission Forest, and Foxcroft. In
addition, he has built homes in Kansas City, MO
and on various country estates throughout Johnson
County, Kansas, Miami County, Kansas,
Jackson County, Missouri, and Cass County,
Missouri.
Montgomery
is a member of the Home Builders Association of
Greater Kansas City and has been certified as a
"Graduate Master Builder" by The Home
Builders Institute, a division of The National
Association of Home Builders.
