Live, Work, and Play Residential Buildings

Over the past couple of decades, developers have added the Live/Work/Play idea into more neighborhoods. On a smaller scale, even when looking at residential pole barns, clients asked Lester Buildings to build more than their residences. They wanted offices, shops, and other hobby spaces. People want their own places to live, work, and play.

Allen Randa of Sapphire Construction, Inc. and his family have been building beautifully crafted homes for generations. Now they have teamed up with Lester Buildings to bring post-frame construction to Central Colorado. Referred to as all buildings or pole barns, post-frame building adds the versatility and prices that our clients deserve.

Post-Frame Construction

Residents enjoy the open floor plans afforded by our post-frame construction methods. This type of construction eliminates the need for interior posts and loadbearing walls. The interior and exterior design elements found in traditional homes can be included in a pole barn home. Choose from an infinite number of custom options.

Just imagine having a great space, even up to 120 feet of clear span. Places to live, to work, and play can fit under one big beautiful and strong roof.
