Why build with Lumara
Built indoors.
Coordinated locally.
Much of the home is built indoors while your site is prepared. That can mean less construction activity in your backyard.
Foundation work, delivery, utility connections and finishing still happen onsite.

Good questions.
Will I need to replace my septic system?
Not always. We review its approved bedroom capacity, condition and configuration before assuming the ADU can connect. Massachusetts septic capacity is based on bedrooms, not bathroom count. Inspection and a septic designer’s review establish whether it can stay, be modified or needs replacement, subject to Board of Health approval.
What could septic replacement cost?
If full replacement is needed, Lumara uses roughly $30,000–$50,000 as an early planning range. Some properties cost more. The final scope and quote depend on testing, system design, soil conditions and access. This is additional to the home price, so we investigate it early.
How much work happens onsite?
Much of the home is built indoors, then delivered for installation. Site preparation, the foundation, installation and utility connections happen on your property. Factory work and site preparation can overlap, reducing construction activity in your yard. Both modular and custom homes need property-specific planning, permits and inspections.
Why Lumara instead of a local builder?
Lumara starts with a defined home design and coordinates the agreed project scope from our Wellesley base. That gives you a clear starting point for design decisions and budgeting. A local contractor can be a good choice for a custom design or modular work. Compare the complete scope, responsibilities and total project budget.
What costs are extra?
Home prices are $209,000 for Lumara One and $230,000 for Lumara Two. Foundation, installation, site work, utility connections, plans, engineering and permits are additional. Lumara Two’s final layout and included specifications are still to be confirmed. We review your property to build a complete project budget.
Will it fit my property and my family?
We review placement, setbacks, delivery access, utilities and sewer or septic needs. Tell us who will live here so we can consider privacy, circulation and entry needs. Surveys, design and required approvals confirm what can be built.
What happens after I enter my address?
Share your address and project details for a free initial review of placement, access and a preliminary budget. We follow up with practical next steps. Surveys, site investigations, design, engineering and permit preparation are separate paid scopes, agreed before work begins.
