“Russell Armer Homes has been building high-quality homes for six decades and we know that every home is special in its own way to the home buyer.

“We’re celebrating all aspects of what makes a house a home, whether that is the location, lifestyle, quality or individuality of the build, and we would love to see pictures and hear stories of people’s homes over the past 60 years.

“Russell Armer Homes continues to provide high-quality buildings throughout the area, and that is what has kept the business going for so long.”
