My amazing kitchen! My huge master bath with Jacuzzi! My huge loft area which will be the family center for my 4 girls. My foyer area with my amazing chandelier! Did I mention my kitchen! My tray ceiling in my room! LOL - the whole home is made so perfectly for me and my family. We were nervous about the building process and thought buying something already built was more ideal but we are so glad that we decided to build! Every detail, from the color schemes to the countertops, was picked out with love and attention to detail to just what my family needed! My amazing kitchen! My huge master bath with Jacuzzi!

Red Door recently completed a house for our son in McColl, S.C. and it turned out beautifully. Lisa was very helpful and we could not have had a better building supervisor. Jeff is one of the nicest young men we have ever encountered and very helpful and attentive during the whole process. We have received so many compliments on our son's house. If you are considering building a home, it would be a mistake not to talk to Red Door first. Red Door recently completed a house for our son in McColl, S.C. and it turned out beautifully.
