The Cape Lookout’s open concept living room, kitchen, and dining room create an efficient and functional living space and floorplan. Additionally, the primary suite is located toward the back of the Cape Lookout, opposite the two guest bedrooms on the main floor, giving homeowners privacy in a cozy retreat. The main floor study, just off the foyer, is a unique feature that sets the Cape Lookout apart. In other plans, this space has served as a formal dining room.

About Compass Pointe

The Compass Pointe community is located just 10 minutes from downtown Wilmington. It offers an abundance of amenities you would expect a charming coastal community to have, like a well-appointed amenities center, outdoor and indoor pools, a lazy river, championship golf, tennis and pickleball courts, along with a wellness center. Compass Pointe is deeply rooted in the sense of community, which starts with an active and social lifestyle, made evident by the unmatched amenities and opportunities for community gatherings.

Visit the Harbour Town III Model

Located at 2560 St. James Drive in Southport, NC, the Harbour Town III is the latest plan in the Harbour Town collection and includes 2,814 square feet with four bedrooms and three-and-a-half baths. The Harbour Town III model boasts an open floorplan that gathers the kitchen, living, and dining room together as one open, informal space to convene. One differentiating feature is a larger family room – the perfect place for chatting with guests, overseeing homework, or watching your favorite movie. Also unique to the Harbour Town III is an additional bedroom on the main floor, perfect for a guest room with a shared jack-and-jill bath. This house embodies the classic coastal style, including:

Unique Lowcountry-designed home
Stunning roof, ceiling details, and two-story foyer
Open floor plan with kitchen/sink on the outside wall
En suite primary bath with walk-in shower and California Closets

Featured Floorplan: The Cape Lookout

Posted on October 1, 2022October 26, 2022 by hagood_homes_dev

Since the debut of the Cape Lookout floorplan a little more than two years ago, it has become our number one-selling plan. You have to see the Cape Lookout model in person, and you’ll know exactly why homebuyers fall in love with it. It’s the perfect combination of coastal charm and modern design, bursting with Hagood Homes’ signature features.

The Specs

Cape Lookout is about 2,485 total square footage with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a bonus room, and a 2-car garage.

A Welcoming Entry

A large, covered and welcoming front porch is one low country architectural design feature that we love incorporating in our homes. With more than 245 square feet, the expansive front porch of the Cape Lookout can accommodate multiple rocking chairs with room to spare. The sloping roof, supported by columns, provides protection from the elements and makes the porch the perfect spot to greet guests, read a good book or enjoy a cocktail while watching the sunset.

Open Floorplan with Split-Bedroom Layout

The Cape Lookout’s open-concept living room, kitchen and dining room create an efficient and functional living space and floorplan. Mowhawk’s five-inch plank wood flooring extends throughout the common areas of the home, while custom wainscoting is featured in the foyer and dinning area. The kitchen features premium KitchenAid appliances, including double built-in ovens and a separate beverage cooler. Crown molding, Shaker base molding and custom cabinets with quartz countertops, under-mount lighting, and pegged dish organizers are just some of the included features that set the Cape Lookout apart from other homes in Compass Pointe.

Dedicated Office Space

One of the main layout features that differentiates the Cape Lookout from other plans is the main floor study, which is just off the foyer. In other plans, this space has served as a formal dining room. We received feedback from our clients that they rarely used the space for formal dining, so we updated the design. With its convenient location, the office is perfect for receiving clients or having a private space to work. Two full sets of French doors and large double-hung windows let natural light stream into the office. Tech Wood oak floors are also extended into the office.

Master Suite Retreat

The master suite is located toward the back of the Cape Lookout, opposite the two guest bedrooms on the main floor. The master bedroom is more than 210 square feet and has a beautiful five-panel bay window and raised ceilings. The expansive en suite features a huge zero-step entry tile shower, double vanity with granite countertops, lighted mirror and oversized walk-in closet. Plus, Moen chrome pluming fixtures are used throughout. Buyers will enjoy the privacy of the primary suite’s location and the luxurious features of this owner’s retreat.

Upstairs Lounge & Guest Suite

One of the most popular features of the Cape Lookout is its upstairs lounge and guest suite. The flex space is perfect for hobbies, informal gatherings and general lounging around. Buyers love the walk-in attic space, which is accessible off the lounge. In addition to the lounge, the second floor includes a guest bedroom with full bathroom. Visitors will appreciate the privacy and functionality.

Storage Galore

Like all Hagood homes, the Cape Lookout has a centrally located drop zone near the laundry area and garage. The drop zone is a custom catch-all that’s ideal for storing coats, bags and other on-the-go items. Just off the drop zone area is the two-car garage that features a golf cart bay and large storage closet. The oversized garage and additional storage closet give buyers ample storage space. Plus, the golf cart bay is ideal for this resort-style community. Residents quickly realize that with so much to do within the gates of Compass Pointe, a golf cart is the perfect mode of transportation.

The Signature Features

Signature Hagood Homes’ features are found throughout the house, including:

Large walk-in pantry with motion-activated lights.
Separate main floor powder room.
Open staircase in the utility hallway leads to the upstairs bonus room.
Separate laundry room rather than a walk-through laundry off the garage.

The Extras

Also, The Carolina room off the kitchen and our large, oversized islands provide plenty of space for enjoying meals. This customer-driven change enabled us to increase the size of the large, rear informal dry area so that it is now a 12-foot by12-foot dining area just off the kitchen toward the back of the home.

The Cape Lookout Model Home is Open!

Experience for yourself why the Cape Lookout is Hagood Homes’ most popular floorplan. The model is open in the Compass Pointe Community at 2542 East Timber Crest Drive, Leland, NC 28451. The Cape Lookout was the Bronze winner of last year’s Parade of Homes and will be featured again this year in the 2022 Brunswick County Parade of Homes on October 14-16 and 21-23.

Hagood Homes’ Top 5: Favorite Wilmington Area Restaurants

Posted on September 16, 2022July 10, 2023 by hagood_homes_dev

Where can you get the best food in coastal Carolina? Practically anywhere! From fine dining restaurants to quaint and casual eateries, the Cape Fear region is a foodie’s paradise. Even Yelp agrees. They named Wilmington one of the best 2022 Foodie cities in the U.S.

We’re lucky to have some great restaurants conveniently located near our sales and design center – not to mention in close proximity to some of our amazing communities like Compass Pointe and The Bluffs on the Cape Fear. So, the next time you visit our beautiful coastal area, make sure you experience the food scene for yourself. With so many fabulous options to choose from, it will be hard to pick your favorite. To help give you some suggestions, our staff compiled their top five here.

1. True Blue

Patrick K’s favorite, True Blue, is a fine dining experience AND butcher shop. The True Blue brand has two locations. Near our sales center, the first location True Blue Butcher & Table, is in the Forum on Military Cutoff Road and is known for its amazing meats, from filet mignon to New York strip to pork chops and Japanese wagyu. You’ll always find amazing cuisine using the best ingredients in an elegant and energetic atmosphere. The second location, True Blue Butcher & Barrel, is near downtown on Greenfield Street, convenient to our Compass Pointe and The Bluffs on the Cape Fear communities.

2. Ceviche’s

Ceviche’s is a must-stop for Troy, co-founder and designer of every Hagood home, when she’s in town. The Panamanian-inspired cafe features Latin fare like Ropa Vieja, sancoho soup, and jerk shrimp skewers, just to name a few. This small neighborhood gathering spot on Wrightsville Avenue is also known for its tropical drink menu. They use only the freshest ingredients and the friendliest service!

3. Tower 7 Baja Mexican Grill

When you’re looking for a laid-back vibe with exceptional food, Tower 7 on Wrightsville Beach is a must – according to Josh! Tower 7 is a local favorite and features dishes with authentic and adventurous flavors inspired by Southern California cuisine, including the Yucatan Shrimp Quesadilla, Baha fish tacos, and the SoCal Carne burrito. And don’t forget the margaritas! Josh’s favorite is the Wannabe.

Josh and friends at Tower 7 — *Sales Agent Josh Adams after celebrating his birthday with a Wannabe margarita (or three) at Tower 7.*

4. Roko Italian Cuisine

Our list would not be complete without an Italian restaurant! Roko is Patrick W’s favorite place to dine. Located at Mayfaire Town Center, it’s an intimate and casual-upscale dining experience – perfect for date night – and features eclectic dishes of seafood, steak, pasta, and salads, all made with the freshest local ingredients.

5. Brasserie du Soleil

If authentic French cuisine is your favorite, then you’re in for a treat at Brasserie du Soleil – Hannah’s recommendation. Located in Lumina Station on Eastwood Road, they have everything you might expect, including escargot, crepes, charred octopus, bouillabaisse, and a Brasserie salad, built your way! But, don’t forget dessert. Hannah’s favorite is the mini Crème Brûlée. They offer indoor and outdoor seating with lots of charming ambiance and attentive service.

Why Buy Now?

Posted on September 16, 2022September 16, 2022 by hagood_homes_dev

Are you thinking of buying a newly built house? Perhaps you’ve thought about building your custom dream home. But maybe the housing market shifts of late have you holding off, taking a wait-and-see approach. Why wait to enjoy the luxury gated community lifestyle? You deserve to live better in a hand-crafted Hagood Home!

While the rock-bottom interest rates of the recent past have been incrementally rising, they are still historically low. And should rates decrease again, there may be the opportunity to refinance and lower future payments, making now a great time to buy your “forever home.”

A Look at Today’s Mortgage Rates*

But first, a look back – to 1981, when average mortgage rates went over 16%. Or to the mid-90s, when 8% for a 30-year mortgage was considered a good deal. And it didn’t get much better in the 2000s. By comparison, the 2020s have been something of a Golden Age for mortgage loans.

So where are we now? The difference between a $500,000 loan for 30 years at 3.5% and 5% is less than $500 dollars a month. Adjustable rate mortgages (ARMs) are a great alternative if borrowers do not need to finance a house for 30 years. Our clients have found success utilizing a 5/1 or 7/1 ARM – these rates are currently at 4%.

A Competitive Market Calls for Action

People are on the move. Millennials, many of whom are first-time homebuyers, number more than 80 million in America and comprise more than 40% of today’s homebuyers. Retirees are downsizing to smaller homes in large numbers. These waves of homebuyers are hitting a market in which inventory is low and demand is high. And while the overall U.S. housing inventory hasn’t yet returned to pre-pandemic levels, we are seeing signs that the historic housing shortage is on the road to a rebound.

Realtor.com’s June 2022 Monthly Housing Trends Report showed a record-setting year-over-year surge of 19% in housing inventory. Homes for sale are out there! Will you be the owner of one?

Looking at New Hanover and Brunswick Counties, available homesites in HOA or gated communities are a rare commodity. Remember, it takes many years and millions of dollars to develop a new community, build the amenities and start selling homes. If you are interested in the area, it’s best practice to get the ball rolling sooner rather than later.

Selling the Home You Have

Will it sell? How long will it take and for how much money? The answers are almost certainly: yes, quickly, and at a good price. According to the National Association of Realtors, at the end of the second quarter of 2022, existing homes for sale in the U.S. were on the market for an average of 14 days. The median existing-home price was up 13.4% from just one year prior.

Appreciation of Your New Home

Should you choose to call the Wilmington area home, you’ll be investing in a red hot and burgeoning real estate market. According to Redfin, home prices in and around Wilmington were up 20.9% in June 2022 compared to the year before. For reference, that kind of yearly appreciation is about double the average annual return of the stock market. Even if the housing market simmers, the value of your new home will almost certainly rise.

Why People Call the Carolinas Home

Why are homes in the Wilmington area and beyond appreciating as much as they are? Economic factors may play a significant part; CNBC crowned North Carolina America’s number-one state for business with the country’s strongest economy in 2022. And folks are flocking to the Tar Heel State. According to the 2020 U.S. Census, the Wilmington area bucked the national trend of population drops with double-digit population growth over the prior ten years. It seems like the beach is a big draw, as areas along the coast in Brunswick County had the area’s highest growth levels.

Coldwell Banker Sea Coast Advantage, the top real estate company in Southeastern NC, explains year over year (January – June 2022 vs. 2021), closed volume sales saw an increase of $169 million – a jump of 10.8% from last year.

Simply put, life in the coastal Carolinas is what many people dream of. The quality of life, weather, taxes, traffic, and everything in between is what draws people in and keeps them here.

Why wait? Moving into a Hagood home will help you enjoy the lifestyle you deserve. Whether you want to downsize or maintain your current home size, with Hagood, you’ll experience luxury living at any size. We also have several included features that help make aging in place a reality.

On top of that, calling coastal Carolina home is the icing on the cake. Pairing our homes with the serenity the coastal Carolinas offer, along with the luxury of gated-community living, is a dream come true for our buyers.

Waiting for building costs and prices of existing homes to come down, as well as anticipating the value of your home (which was artificially inflated for 18 months) will rise, is a great theory, but it may not be realistic. Postponing your decision to build in the coastal Carolinas only reduces the amount of time you have to enjoy living in a Hagood Home.

Are you ready to start the process of getting the home of your dreams? Hagood Homes can help make that possible! Connect with one of our agents at (910) 256-8284 or fill out the form below to discuss how we can get started.

*Mortgage rates are subject to change. Borrowers should consult with a licensed mortgage lender when searching for home financing.

New Model Home! The Calibogue at Compass Pointe

Posted on September 16, 2022February 22, 2023 by hagood_homes_dev

Our top-selling floorplan model home, the Calibogue, is now open at Compass Pointe! Compass Pointe is a gated, master-planned community on the southeastern coast of North Carolina where resort-style living is at its finest! Hagood Homes is proud to be a top-rated building partner with Compass Pointe, designing homes that fit the coastal lifestyle, especially the Calibogue.

Located at 2608 Sweet Sassafras Street in Leland, North Carolina, the new Calibogue model home won’t disappoint fans of natural light and open concepts. The coastal-inspired plan is washed in natural light from its tall windows, dormers, French doors, and windowed doors. But this is just the start of a long list of unique features.

A Grand Entrance

Nothing says coastal charm like a grand front porch and entryway! This Calibogue model home features a dedicated foyer, impressive front door, and 10-inch pilasters that say, “come on in”!

View the video below to join Sales Agent Josh Adams on a walkthrough of this beautiful home, filled with inspiring details!

The primary bedroom is split from the other bedrooms and features dual closets. The door opens centrally between the primary and en suite, so you don’t have to walk through the bathroom to get to the closet. The en suite features an impressive tiled walk-in shower – the perfect combination of relaxation and functionality.

Split bedroom layout

On the other side of the first floor are two suites, perfectly suited for guests or family. They feature easy access to the great room and share a bath with separate vanity and shower areas so multiple guests can use the space simultaneously but still have some privacy.

Flex space

Having a space that can function in many ways is something else the Calibogue model has. A 505 square foot second-floor lounge area with a separate bedroom and bath can be used as a home office or a den. It’s also perfect for guests or entertaining. The possibilities are endless!

Custom built-ins

We’ve taken advantage of some underutilized space in this Calibogue model and added some charm and value with custom built-ins. The living area features a low-profile fireplace with built-ins on both sides and built-in cabinetry and a wet bar area in the kitchen.

Personalizing Your Dream Home with Hagood

Posted on September 16, 2022September 16, 2022 by hagood_homes_dev

When it comes to building your dream home, the process can be stressful. That’s why it’s important to choose the right builder to help bring your vision to life. For over 25 years, Hagood Homes has been designing and building coastal Carolina homes with a focus on care and integrity. It all begins with one of our award-winning floorplans.

Customized Vs. Personalized

The idea of a custom-built home – a one-of-kind that is uniquely yours – is appealing for some buyers, but it can come with a heftier price tag and a more complex and lengthier process flow that not everyone is interested in. At Hagood Homes, we can refine and personalize every plan in our portfolio to give homeowners the lifestyle features they’re looking for along with a more custom feel without the fully-custom price tag.

Once you select one of our floorplans, we can work closely with you to meet your personalized wishes. Our designers can work with you to help make small adjustments to personalize the floor plan or elevation to help make your new home feel more like a one-of-a-kind. Our sales team also works closely with the design team as advisors to help you personalize the plans to fit your lifestyle and ensure budgets are being put to the highest and best use.

Take a look at the images below to see examples of how our homeowners have customized their Cape Lookout elevation.

And here are examples of how homeowners have customized their fireplace and built-ins, both included features at Hagood Homes.

A Design Process Like No Other

After you finalize your floor plan, you’ll meet with one of our designers on day one of our 3-day design consultation process and again on day 3 to summarize your selection decisions.
Our proven design process simplifies the selection decisions and allows more time to make design decisions than other builders to ensure cohesive and seamless style throughout your home.

Plus, we’ve partnered with the best vendors in each field, so your home is filled with products and finishes second-to-none.

You’ll meet with:

Atlantic Appliance
Port City Cabinets
A landscape architect to create a custom landscape plan
An electrician to fully review electrical plans and options
Sound Tronics to review low voltage and data options
A production manager (leadership member of our construction team) to review all your plans and questions
Shutterhawk to create personalized closet deign
Fergeson to pick out lighting (no pre-determined packages)

Our sales team, along with our vendors, will help make sure no stone is left unturned. Our goal is to make sure homeowners don’t say, “I wish I would have thought of that,” after the home is completed.

Unmatched Finish Options

We offer many options to fit your style and your budget. Our standard selections choices include more options for homeowners to choose from in all categories than most builders.

Take a peek at our selection options here and check out the video below to get a glimpse into our selections office.

Compass Pointe Update: July 2022

Posted on July 15, 2022 by hagood_homes_dev

There is so much new activity in Compass Pointe, one of the area’s most popular and beautiful communities in Leland, NC! Hagood Homes is proud to be a preferred builder at Compass Pointe and offer a unique set of included features in our new builds. Take a video tour with Sales Manager Josh Adams to view all the exciting progress being made. If you don’t already have a lot, new inventory is expected this fall, so stay tuned for more information.

Enjoy the tour!

Timber Ridge

Timber Ridge is Compass Pointe’s newest section. Multiple residential projects in varying stages of completion make this a bustling section in Compass Pointe right now. The Shackleford Banks and Albemarle Sound are just two of Hagood’s popular floorplans currently under construction in this section. Additionally, the Cape Lookout model is open and available to tour.

Highland Forest West

Highland Forest West has several recently completed homes, including the Cape Lookout floorplan and the Woods Cove, which is almost completed. You’ll also see a spectacularly modified Harbour Town III Canted with a three-car garage and an added pavilion room.

Highland Forest

Check out our exquisite custom design as you enter Highland Forest. You’ll also see a Cape Lookout, the former model home with beautiful landscaping. The Cape Lookout is our bestselling model in Compass Pointe, followed by the Harbour Town, which is currently under construction.

Compass Pointe Club House

The new outdoor pool and tiki bar are underway! We’re looking forward to having these brand-new amenities at Compass Pointe.

Looking for a specific floorplan under construction? Check out these homes!

Orton Creek at homesite #145 features an oversized two-car garage with room for a golf cart, a large front porch, and a welcoming foyer.

Harbour Town II customized homesite at lot #22. This modified plan features a wider but shallower layout. We placed the garage on the left side to accommodate the buyers’ needs. This is one of the benefits of working with Hagood – we’re happy to modify any of our existing floorplans to fit your lifestyle!

The Petersen Residence is another custom build featuring the Harbour Town III. Our clients made a handful of customizations, including a unique angled garage.

This Cape Lookout is a brand-new model home in the Timber Ridge section of Compass Pointe. This turnkey package features landscaping and a 1,200 sq. ft. driveway. The beautiful front porch stretches the entire length of the entrance to the house.

Posted on July 11, 2022 by hagood_homes_dev

Come explore another one of Hagood’s beautifully designed custom builds, the Sottung Residence, in Landfall, Wilmington, NC’s premier gated community. This residence’s striking exterior, featuring West Indy-inspired low pitch roofs with wide overhangs adorned with corbels, blends perfectly with its natural surroundings.

Lisa and Karl were introduced to Hagood Homes and Sales Manager, Josh Adams, in 2017. Hagood Homes has been alongside the the Sottung’s since the homesite selection. It wouldn’t be until years later that Lisa and Karl would be ready to begin their dream home. The Sottung’s with the help of Adams, worked with home designer, Troy Kenny, to create not only the perfect home for their homesite but the perfect home for their lifestyle.

The Sottung residence features 3 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, 3,001 heated square feet plus an additional 1,234 unheated square feet, bringing it to 4,235 total square feet.

Take a Virtual Walk-Through

From the front exterior, it’s hard to miss the amazing oversized front porch running the length of the house. The attractive wide columns and lantern-inspired lighting exemplify the charm of this modern farmhouse.

The Coppersmith’s Creole 27 natural gas lamps flanks either side of the Thermatru Entry door. The warm glow and flicker of the flame greet you as your approach the large, low country inspired front porch.

Note, the hardi porch ceilings. They are painted “haint blue.” Folklore refers to the concept of “haint,” a Southern variation on the word “haunt” that refers to a ghost or spirit. Blue represents water and apparently spirits cannot traverse water. Homeowners often paint the ceilings, the window trim and sometimes the doors to theoretically keep spirits away.

What started as superstition has since translated into a design trend. No one would think twice about painting their porch blue because their grandmother’s and their parents’ porches were blue. This trend has now permeated into porch design. In fact, the pale blue-green tint is now known in design circles as “haint blue.”

On the other side of the oversized door, step into the brightly lit foyer that seamlessly spills into the sprawling modern open floorplan.

The open space features paneled ceilings with beams, beautiful light wood floors (Carolina Mountain Hardwood / Tidewater Collection /Oak Winter Marsh), and a wall of glass doors that invite the outside in and inside out, allowing for an abundance of natural light.

The living area features a low-profile fireplace and custom built-ins, creating a homey front room.

Bright white cabinets, walls and ceilings, contrasted by the darker wood of the oversized island, make this truly a remarkable modern farmhouse kitchen, topped off with stainless steel appliances (including a Thermador 36” gas rangetop) and many windows. The sink is a Blanco Diamond Single Bowl in Anthracite, highlighted by a Moen faucet with brushed gold accents. Another fun feature of this home is the custom tile backsplash with floating shelving in the kitchen.

Taking the stairs to the second floor, hardwoods continue through to the primary bedroom with a bank of windows overlooking the pool in the backyard. The bedroom also features an impressive en suite with zero entry and a tiled walk-in shower.

A large butler’s pantry and separate laundry room with custom built-ins are just some of the features that make this custom build a showpiece.

The backyard patio is a spectacular gathering space featuring an in-ground pool and easy-to-maintain landscaping, encompassing the owner’s lifestyle needs.

The Sottung’s elected for a custom designed rectangular concrete pool featuring a sun self, in Quartzscapes Tahoe Blue with a silver travertine coping and crushed shelf decking.

One of the many benefits of working with Hagood is access to our pool design service. We’ll work with you to create the perfect backyard oasis that fits your home’s style and lot.
