A custom home is one that is especially designed to meet the specifications of the person who commissioned it. "Stock" building plans are not custom designed; the same plan may be sold to many different people.
Frequently a builder will customize stock plans by changing details. The builder may change the type of siding, move a doorway, or even add a dormer. However, the house is not truly a "custom home" unless a designer (usually an architect) has closely studied the land and interviewed the clients, to create a one-of-a-kind home that is tailor-made for the people who will live there. Finding a custom homebuilder may be a lengthy task on its own but will have good consequences if done properly. Approach it as if you would any other contractor and ask for references and always compare custom homebuilders.

Much of Idaho has an unspoiled beauty, with rugged slopes and towering peaks, a vast expanse of timberland, scenic lakes, wild rivers, cascades, and spectacular gorges. From the northern Panhandle, where Idaho is about 45 mi (72 km) wide, the state broadens south of the Bitterroot Range to 310 mi (499 km) in width. The Snake River flows in a great arc across S Idaho; with its tributaries the river has been harnessed to produce hydroelectric power and to reclaim vast areas of dry but fertile land. To the north of the Snake River valley, in central and north central Idaho, are the massive Sawtooth Mts. and the Salmon River Mts., which shelter magnificent wilderness areas, including the Frank Church River of No Return Wilderness, the Selway Bitterroot Wilderness Area, and the Idaho Primitive Area.
