Designer + Licensed Residential Contractor in Oxford, Mississippi

Member of The Southern Living Custom Builder Program

Judy Riddell founded Princess Hoka Properties with a single vision: to thoughtfully renovate and reimagine a 1920s bungalow next door to her home in Oxford. Backed by a degree in design and more than 20 years of hands-on experience in building and renovation, that project quickly set the tone for something larger—where craftsmanship, character, and intentional design come together.

Today, as Hoka House Design+Build, the firm specializes in the restoration of historic homes and the construction of new residences in Oxford, Mississippi and the Pickwick Lake area. Each project reflects a commitment to timeless design, quality materials, and spaces that feel both elevated and lived-in.
