Wathen Castanos Hybrid Homes, Inc. is more than a development company. It is the passion of a family. For three generations, Wathen Castanos has created home developments that have established beautiful communities and enhanced the quality of life for all Valley residents.
The Wathen-Castanos legacy began with Grandfather Wathen’s love for remodeling homes in the 1930s. Sons Spalding, Ron, Jack and Richard Sr. inherited their Grandfather’s love and formed the successful Wathen Brothers development company in the early 1950s. For nearly 90 years, the Wathen name has represented excellence in residential development in the Central San Joaquin Valley.
Today, cousins Kevin J. Castanos and Richard G. Wathen Jr. have taken the legacy and passion for building homes to a whole new level. Maintaining a tradition of excellence, the recent unveiling of the Advanced Performance Hybrid Home and the Zero Net Electric Hybrid Home, showcase why Wathen Castanos Hybrid Homes, Inc. is now building some of the most energy efficient homes in the country.
Earning Builder of the Year- 2011 - Energy Value Housing Award, and the National Housing Quality Award for 2011, the company prides itself on the longevity of their relationships with their Trade Partners and employees. The company attributes its success in the marketplace to the talents and strong commitment to excellence of those they work with from product development to customer satisfaction.
