October 16, 2025
Intentional builds, curated design, smart home essentials, a transparent process, real homeowner support, and more.
1. Construction Quality That Lasts
O+E homes are crafted with durable, low-maintenance materials, trusted trade partners, and elevated details many builders consider upgrades. From the structure and insulation to the windows, roofing, and finishes, every step is planned to go above standard building practices and prioritize strength, comfort, and everyday livability. The result is a new home that feels solid from day one and stays looking timeless as your life grows and changes.
2. Energy Efficiency That Pays Off
Built smarter from the ground up, O+E homes help you save on utilities while minimizing environmental impact—delivering comfort that’s modern, efficient, and mindful. Explore the energy-first choices in our build process and how they add everyday value.
3. Smarter Homes, Better Living
From smart thermostats and video doorbells to smart garage door openers and connected security options, O+E homes are designed for modern, app-enabled living. All of our homes include smart home technology, but packages vary by community and home—your sales counselor can walk you through exactly what’s included and how complimentary white-glove setup can help you get everything connected from day one.
4. Studio O+E: Design, Curated
Personal style should be simple. At Studio O+E, you’ll choose from modern, curated finish collections—cabinetry, countertops, flooring, tile, and fixtures—designed to work beautifully together, then work one-on-one with our design team to tailor them to how you live. The result is a cohesive, move-in-ready home that feels fresh, functional, and distinctly yours without the overwhelm of sorting through endless choices.
5. Flexible Floor Plans That Fit Real Life
Every Onyx+East floor plan is designed for natural light, connection, and flexibility—open-concept living areas with thoughtful options for home offices, flex rooms, fireplaces, and outdoor escapes. From quiet corners for focus to bright spaces made for hosting and everyday living, our homes are crafted to adapt as life changes and inspire new ideas for how you use every room.
6. Warranties You Can Count On
Count on a comprehensive warranty program, backed by our in-house warranty team, to support you well beyond closing. Depending on your area and community, your new home warranty may include coverage for structure, roof, mechanical systems, materials, and craftsmanship.
7. A Transparent Process + A Trusted Team
From the first conversation to keys-in-hand, you’ll know what’s happening and when. Behind every new Onyx+East home is our team of experts across construction, land development, architecture, design, warranty, sales and more, all working together to support your homebuying and homebuilding journey. Our guided process outlines clear touchpoints—from contract and design through construction milestones and closing—so whether you’re building from the ground up or purchasing a quick move-in home, you’ll get proactive updates and support at every step.
8. Savings That Stretch
Stepping into a new Onyx+East home is easier with savings and simplicity built into the process. Incentives vary by location but may include fixed-rate buydowns, contributions toward closing costs, or credits for design upgrades—connect with a sales counselor to see what’s available for your new home.
9. Prime, Connected Locations
We build where life happens—near culture, dining, parks, employers, and everyday essentials:
- Indiana: From downtown Indianapolis favorites like Mass Ave and Fountain Square to north-side standouts in Carmel and Fishers, our communities keep you close to everything.
- Ohio: In Cincinnati's East Walnut Hills, enjoy urban energy and neighborhood charm—dining, riverfront trails, and boutique retail—within easy reach.
Florida: From vibrant Tampa and coastal St. Petersburg to convenient Brandon, you’re never far from beaches, stadiums, and year-round sunshine.
10. Because People Come First
Move-in isn’t the finish line—it’s the start of our relationship. At Onyx+East, every part of our team is aligned around one goal: making your homebuying and homeowning experience feel clear, supported, and human. You can see that people-first mindset in the stories our homeowners share in their testimonials, and in the way we continue to show up after closing—whether you’re asking a quick question, working through a warranty item, or looking for guidance as your needs change.
