About Us

Custom Design & Build Homes

Mountain Retreat Living and Southern Heritage Homes together deliver a full-spectrum custom homebuilding experience to the Smith Mountain Lake community. With a unified design/build approach, we guide clients from initial concepts through hand-crafted construction, ensuring homes are thoughtfully tailored to both the family and the site.

Distinctive Mountain & Lakefront Retreats

Under the Mountain Retreat Living banner, we specialize in creating bespoke mountain and lakefront homes. These are crafted with thoughtful design features such as extensive porches, timber-frame details, stone patios, and a strong focus on natural surroundings—ideal for clients seeking retreat-style, environment-harmonizing dwellings.

Energy-Efficient, Handcrafted Southern Style

Southern Heritage Homes emphasizes custom homes that blend modern energy-saving and engineering techniques with traditional craftsmanship. Our designs don’t compromise style or comfort for efficiency, and many clients begin with sample plans as jumping-off points for personalized home designs.

Client-Centric Experience

Across both sub-brands, the company prioritizes an attentive, transparent process:

  • We work closely with clients from site evaluation to sizing, placement, and logistics.
  • We provide upfront pricing to eliminate surprises.
  • We maintain consistent communication through design and construction.
