Archstone Builders, LLC was formed in 2014 as a joint venture between two of Westford, Massachusetts’ most prominent builders. Wescon, Inc. and Jamesco Development united to develop and build select residential and commercial projects in their market area through Archstone Builders, while continuing to operate Wescon and Jamesco as separate entities.
Archstone Builders draws from the strengths of each company to offer a broad range of expertise and an exceptional track record in all aspects of development and construction, from land acquisition, planning and permitting, through top-of-the-line construction and detailed finish work.
