From spacious ranches to charming barndominiums, here's a peek into the plans we love the most—and why they’ve won our hearts.
Beaufort
Lauren Marsh, SVP of HR:
"I absolutely love the Beaufort ❤️ So many features that I love:
-
That iconic wrap-around porch—southern charm at its finest!
-
Bright, airy rooms with tall ceilings and tons of windows
-
Open living/kitchen layout and a split bedroom plan
-
Great size for a small family or empty nesters
-
And yes, someday I’d love to build this on stilts near the beach!"
Kelsie Gollie:
"The open layout and cathedral ceilings make it feel grand, and I adore the exterior. That full wrap-around porch gives it the perfect elevated cabin feel!"
Natalie Edwards, Winterville DHC:
"I love the open concept first floor, tall ceilings, and natural light—plus, the primary bedroom is on the first floor."
Cedar Creek Barndominium
Tate Fann, Florence Builder Manager:
"The Cedar Creek Barndo is perfect for my little family. The farmhouse exterior is beautiful, and the ginormous garage is everything—perfect for vehicles, a boat, toy cars, workout equipment, tools—you name it!"
Hunter Pennington, Purchasing Agent:
"The layout is great, and the porch and farmhouse exterior really sold me."
Newport
Hunter Guimbellot, Builder:
"I’ve built several Newports, and they just feel so cozy. It’s simple, not too big or fancy, and the vaulted ceilings really open it up inside."
Inglewood
Jeff Jones, Raeford Builder Manager:
"I love the Inglewood with a hip roof and a butler’s pantry. The extra storage is amazing, and the roof design gives it a sleek, modern touch."
Litchfield
Kaydee Wood, Clayton DHC:
"This one is super versatile—4 bedrooms or 3 with a flex space, a large primary suite, and an open kitchen. It’s a great value that still leaves room in the budget for those personal touches."
Richfield Craftsman
Carvin Cash:
"A perfect one-story home for a growing family. I love the stone exterior, spacious layout, big kitchen island, walk-in closets, and the option to convert the dining room into a fifth bedroom or even a half bath!"
Lexington
Alexis McGirt, Raeford DHC:
"The most versatile plan we offer. Tons of customization inside and out. It’s so easy to tailor this home to fit almost any family."
Kim Wood, Florence Sales Manager:
"The layout is great for entertaining and holidays! I especially love the butler’s pantry and would turn Bedroom 4 into an office."
Doug Curry, SVP of Purchasing:
"The Lexington offers amazing use of space and customization—five elevations, multiple kitchen choices, bonus rooms, and a split bedroom layout. It flows so well and is a great value!"
Page Robertson:
"Not too big, not too small. I love the included rear porch and the open layout—it just feels like home."
Allen Colglazier II:
"It’s the perfect size, and I love how open and well it flows."
Westmoreland
Molly Nocella:
"It’s a beautiful, spacious, open ranch-style plan. I love how it lives!"
Samantha Meggs:
"It’s a big home but still feels cozy. The open living space and split bedroom layout are ideal."
Nicole Abel, Florence DHC:
"I need space when family visits from Canada! The Westmoreland has that, plus a huge kitchen. I also love the bonus room in the Chapel Hill for our board game nights—it’s our game + snack zone!"
Joseph Gottlich, Winterville Builder Manager:
"I became known as ‘The Westmoreland Builder’—I’ve built so many! It’s roomy and has great builder incentives 😉"
Brooke Doza:
"What’s not to love? 10’ ceilings, hip roof, one story, and a big, open layout."
Brittany Baker:
"It’s all about the space and openness for me!"
Chapel Hill
Bryce Baker:
"I love how the kitchen and living room flow together. Plus, having the primary suite on the first floor is a huge bonus."
Nicole Abel:
"The bonus room upstairs is amazing for game nights, and the storage closet doubles as our snack hub!"
Augusta
Katie Hockaday:
"I love how spacious this two-story plan is—and laundry upstairs is a big win. You can even add a bonus room!"
Montclaire
Sissy Robertson:
"I love how the family room is centered between all the bedrooms—perfect for family time before bed."
Pamlico (Cape Cod Elevation)
Walker Fann:
"I’m drawn to the dormers and the open floor plan with the garage—it’s just a really smart design."
