Where we've built
We’re honored to build in several of the most renowned communities in the area.
It isn’t called the “Home of American Golf” for nothing. With over 40 award-winning golf courses within a 20 mile radius, golf is one of the many special things Moore County has to offer. Both downtown Southern Pines and the Village of Pinehurst are hubs of Southern charm, featuring vibrant streets with boutique shops, delicious farm-to-table restaurants, and lively breweries.
Our footprint extends across prestigious Pinehurst neighborhoods like Forest Creek, Fairwoods on 7, National #9, and the Country Club of NC, each known for its distinctive charm and luxurious living. In Southern Pines, we craft homes in the exclusive Mid South Club, as well as the surrounding downtown areas. Our expertise also reaches into Foxfire’s Grande Pines, offering expansive and serene landscapes. In West End, we are proud to contribute to the development of Seven Lakes West, known for its tranquil and scenic beauty.
We are extremely flexible when it comes to choosing the perfect area for your custom home. In fact, we can build anywhere. Our team will walk sites with you to help locate the perfect lot for your dream home.
Although we’re best known for our beautiful homes across the Sandhills region, we’re excited about extending our expertise to the coast.
