Founded in the Valley. Built for the Valley.

HRH Development was founded in Woodstock, New York, to introduce a more disciplined, integrated approach to custom homebuilding in the Hudson Valley and Catskills. Our objective was straightforward: deliver the level of coordination, accountability, and execution typically reserved for larger markets, while maintaining the local knowledge required to navigate this region’s unique land and regulatory conditions.

Over the past six years, we have completed a growing portfolio of projects across Ulster and Columbia Counties. Each has expanded our understanding of site conditions, approvals, and construction in this market while reinforcing our commitment to delivering homes that are architecturally intentional, budget-driven, and built to perform over time.

We remain a deliberately scaled, principal-led firm. Limiting the number of projects we take on ensures that every client receives direct, hands-on involvement throughout the process, from initial evaluation through completion. It is a defining aspect of our work, and one we protect carefully.

With over 15 years of combined experience in residential brokerage and construction, Zak Gumpel founded HRH Development to bridge the gap between site identification, design, construction, and budget transparency—bringing a fully integrated, end-to-end approach to custom homebuilding.

What We Stand For

Single-Team Accountability

We believe fragmented project teams produce fragmented results. By integrating design and construction under one contract, we eliminate the blame game and keep your project moving forward.

Radical Transparency

Every cost decision, every schedule change, every field condition is communicated to our clients in plain language, prior to and during the construction process. We don't hide behind contract language or obscure the reality of your project.

Design That Earns Its Place

We design homes for how people actually live — not for award submissions. Every architectural decision is tested against practical function, budget reality, and long-term durability.

Respect for the Land

The Hudson Valley is a singular landscape. We site homes thoughtfully, minimize disturbance to mature vegetation and natural hydrology, and design structures that feel like they belong.
