Custom Homes, Additions, and Remodels in Newberg, OR
Want the vineyards and the country quiet without giving up a real town, good schools, and an easy run to the city? That is the Newberg sweet spot. This is the gateway to Willamette Valley wine country, close enough to Portland for a flexible commute yet wrapped in the Chehalem Mountains, with a First Street downtown that serves neighbors rather than only tourists and a university, George Fox, that keeps the place lively year-round. Marnella Homes builds across the Chehalem Valley, putting up new custom homes on hillside acreage and in newer neighborhoods alike, growing family houses that have run short on room, and restoring the older homes from the town’s Quaker and pioneer past. Four decades of building science come with us, so a Newberg home is as comfortable and efficient as its setting is beautiful, in every season the valley serves up.
Custom Home Building in Newberg
Found a homesite in the Chehalem Mountains, a Ribbon Ridge acreage, or a lot in one of Newberg’s newer neighborhoods? Few places let you choose between a vineyard-view estate and a family home minutes from town, and we build well on either. A custom home here can crown a hillside with vineyards in the distance or settle onto a quiet street near good schools, each designed to suit its setting and your life. We handle the site and utilities a rural parcel needs, model performance for the valley climate, and hold a fixed price from the start, so the plan you love is the plan you can afford.
Home Additions
Planted in a Newberg neighborhood like Springbrook or College Park, close to George Fox and everything else, but the house is short on space? Staying put usually beats starting over when you like where you are. An addition can deliver the primary suite, the wider kitchen, or the extra bedrooms a growing family needs, without giving up the schools, the parks, and the neighbors you already have. We tie the new construction into the existing home so it looks original, and we build to a high-performance standard, so the added rooms stay comfortable and cost little to heat and cool through the valley’s swings.
Whole-Home Remodeling
Own one of the older homes near downtown Newberg, from the town’s Quaker and pioneer days? Those houses carry a history worth keeping, and they respond beautifully to the right touch. A whole-home remodel can modernize comfort, layout, and efficiency while protecting the details that give these homes their character. We look past the cosmetics to the structure and the systems, tighten everything against the valley’s damp winters, and open the floor plan to the way families actually live now. The result honors where the house came from and finally works for where your life is today.
Additional Services
Have plans drawn, or a bid you want an experienced builder to look through before you break ground? You can tap our know-how for one piece of the project, not the whole thing. Whether a permit has stalled with the City of Newberg or Yamhill County, or a quote does not sit right, our additional services are here, covering bid review, plan modification, building permit processing, plan review, technical consultation, and building design. It is the same expertise behind our full builds, focused on the single question you need answered. Catching an issue now is far cheaper than fixing it once the crew is on site.

We know how to build for Willamette Valley weather and work a rural or hillside site, so wine-country projects start on a steady footing.
Proof in the numbers
We model a home's efficiency before construction and check it independently after, so your comfort and running costs are backed by data rather than sales talk. See the Marnella Advantage.

FAQs
Does Marnella Homes build custom homes in Newberg, OR?
Yes. Marnella Homes builds custom homes in Newberg and throughout the Chehalem Valley. We are based in Camas, Washington, an easy reach from wine country, and we bring four decades of high-performance building to everything from close-in family homes to Chehalem Mountain estates.
Do you build wine-country estates on acreage near Newberg?
We do. The Chehalem Mountains and Ribbon Ridge are full of view and vineyard properties, and building on them takes careful siting, rural utilities, and an eye for the valley climate. We plan all of that early and design the home to make the most of its acreage and its outlook.
How much does it cost to build a custom home in Newberg?
Costs track the lot, the home’s size and design, the finishes you pick, and whatever a rural or hillside site adds in prep and utilities. We quote it all as one fixed price grounded in energy modeling, so your number is set before you commit, not discovered along the way.
Can you add on to or remodel a home in Newberg?
Yes. From newer homes in Springbrook to the historic houses near downtown, we handle both additions and full remodels. Each one improves space, comfort, and efficiency to modern standards while respecting the home’s character and neighborhood.
