The two principles of Central Highland Builders, David Smith and Barry Keenan, formed Central Highland Builders to design, build and develop residential communties as well as individual custom homes. “Central Highland Builders” is the DBA name for Cental Highlands, Inc., the official name of the company. To date the company has built and sold over 96 homes with an additional 29 homes planned in two projects on Bainbridge Island. A brief description of each project, in the neighborhoods section, following this introduction summarizes the history of Central Highland Builders. The two principles come from successful careers in design, development and home building.

All of our projects have met their financial obligations in full and on schedule. References are available upon request and include 1st National Bank of Bremerton, now merged with Kitsap Bank, and 1st National Bank of Port Orchard, now a subsidiary of Interwest Bank and Pacific Northwest Bank.

We are 9 year members of the Kitsap Home Builders Association, which is a part of the National Home Builders Association. Our suppliers and subcontractors include, Parker Lumber Co., Ace Paving, Fred Hill Concrete, and so on. These companies have been part of all of the projects developed by Central Highland Builders and references are available upon request.

Our company is committed to building and developing in accordance with the most environmentally sound development, construction and waste management methods available. The Kitsap Home Builders Association has developed one of the most advanced green building and development programs in America, titled “Build a Better Kitsap”. We are charter members and have enrolled all the homes we have built since the programs inception. We have contributed to the creation of the second phase of “Build a Better Kitsap” a green land development program. The plat of Weaver Creek was the first land development project to follow the “green development program” and was featured by the National Green Building Conference, May 18, 2001 in Seattle for its pioneering efforts in following green development practices.
