111 Oswalt St, Antwerp, Oh 45813

Sometimes the best compliment isn't an offer—it's a conversation about building a future.

A young family recently toured 111 Oswalt St., and afterward they sent me a message that I was honored to receive (shared with their permission):

"We have gone to several listed houses, but none of them felt like home like your home did."

"You can feel the care and craftsmanship in every detail."

They loved the house, the neighborhood, and the community. In the end, they realized their family of five simply needs a little more space than this home offers.

So instead of walking away, they asked if we could sit down and talk about building a home that fits their family's needs on one of our available lots in Antwerp.

As a builder, I couldn't ask for a better compliment.

That also means 111 Oswalt is still available for the next family who falls in love with it.

If you've been thinking about buying a new home, I'd love to show you around. It might be exactly the right fit for your family.

🏡 Built for Real Life.

A house isn't just measured in square feet.

It's measured in birthday candles, family dinners, homework at the kitchen table, holiday traditions, and quiet evenings spent together.

At MDL Builders, we believe the kitchen table is more than a piece of furniture—it's where real life happens.

It's where children finish homework after school.

Where parents plan for tomorrow.

Where friends gather over coffee.

Where stories are shared, prayers are offered, and memories are made.

That's why we build homes designed for the way people actually live.

✔ Open, comfortable living spaces that bring families together.

✔ A welcoming kitchen with room for everyday meals and meaningful conversations.

✔ Energy-efficient construction that helps keep monthly costs affordable.

✔ Quality craftsmanship and low-maintenance living so your weekends can be spent making memories—not making repairs.

Our goal has never been simply to build houses.

Our goal is to build homes where families can put down roots, grow together, and create a lifetime of memories.

Built for Real Life. Built for Northwest Ohio.

I named my design for this house, "Novashell". Chat GPT said it would be popular with younger buyers. I spent countless hours designing this house, and I am very proud of how it turned out. I put together a slideshow with audio for a virtual showing. You can check it out on my YouTube channel here.
