The Campos have been buying land and building homes in the hamlets around Port Jefferson Station — Miller Place, Mount Sinai, Middle Island — for 40 years, Mr. Campo said.
”We sell land to individuals at the same price that we sell it to a builder,” said Mr. Campo. ”They can customize the house according to their requirements and in the end they will save money, especially if they’re going to do some of their own work.”
I chatted with Jack Campo, founder of the company, whose sons now run the business. Campo Brothers has been in existence for over 50 years. Jack Campo shared his insights on East End dos and don’ts when it comes to unique home design.
On the East End, Campo Brothers is well known for their single-family custom homes, and they currently have houses going up in Jamesport, Baiting Hollow and Shelter Island. Most of their homes have been built on Long Island, but they have had a few projects in Florida as well.
Campo Brothers offers a variety of styles and trends. “We’re getting more into custom homes and upgrades,” Campo said. “We have a 7,000 square foot model we’re completing in Mount Sinai, and a lot of the materials that went into this home were taken from our former headquarters, a mansion we used to use as our offices near Port Jefferson. After all these years, we’ve brought in a lot of material from country clubs, buildings that were being demoed and we’re doing very innovative custom construction.”Read Full Article Here
