Crafted to Last
Quality materials, lasting craftsmanship and local roots.
Riverpark Homes & Development, LLC
For the father-and-son team behind River Park Homes, Taner and Arda Irmak, building a home of beauty and long-lasting quality must start with the materials themselves.
This family-owned Knoxville builder traces its roots to 1995 and the hardwood lumber manufacturing industry. In 2013, River Park transitioned into luxury spec homebuilding in the Knoxville area, bringing that knowledge of materials together with a commitment to craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and attention to detail.
“I started out in the hardwood lumber business,” says Taner of his early days, “and worked in that industry for years. After working with another builder on my own custom home, not particularly liking how the process went, and thinking that I could do better myself, I set out to build my first spec home. My father and I have been building ever since.”
A Foundation Built on Knowing Quality
River Park’s foundation in hardwood lumber manufacturing gives the company an interesting perspective on homebuilding. While buyers naturally notice a home’s floor plan, cabinetry, flooring, fixtures and finishes, they seldom understand that what’s behind those features matters just as much.
The company has built upon that knowledge of materials with an emphasis on attention to detail, modern design, and an understanding of changing market needs. At the same time, Taner and Arda’s homes balance contemporary trends with timeless aesthetic. One of River Park’s homes will be available for touring at this year’s Parade of Homes. “The house we have in the Parade this year is in a prime location, right in the heart of Farragut at 12564 Daisy Field Lane in Knoxville. We have given extraordinary attention to detail during the design and build process, and we’re very excited to show our new designs and floor plans.”
Relationships That Create Consistency
Of course, even the best materials are only as good as the people who put them together. That’s why another important part of the River Park philosophy is its long-standing relationships with trusted subcontractors and suppliers. Rather than constantly changing the people and companies involved in its projects, River Park works with professionals who share its standards for craftsmanship. The result? Every individual working on the home understands the expectations for quality, reliability, and attention to detail. For Taner, it’s also a way to support his community. “For me, supporting the community starts with the people who help us build. We make an effort to work with local trades, craftsmen, and businesses whenever we can.”

Something the neighborhood can be proud of
For River Park, a luxury home isn't simply one that looks impressive when it's new. It's one built with quality materials by skilled craftspeople. But, according to Taner, a home can, and should, be even more than that. “Beyond the building project itself, I believe that building is an opportunity to contribute something positive and lasting to the community. We want the homes we build to fit their surroundings, be built with care, and hopefully be something the neighborhood can be proud of for years to come.”
