Hagood Bathrooms

Posted on by hagood_homes_dev

While bathroom aren’t often focal points for friends and family, their critical function and frequent use makes them a high priority when choosing a home that fits your needs, preferences and lifestyle.

Essential Bathroom Features in Hagood Homes

Many extras and upgrades that homeowners want are standard features in the design of bathrooms created by Hagood Homes. Some of these include custom cabinetry, tiled showers, and premium fixtures and lighting. Below are the bathroom features that Hagood homeowners have come to love:

Quality Custom Cabinetry and Premium Vanity Countertops

Many of our master bathrooms feature high-quality custom cabinetry with drawers that are soft-close and full-extension with dovetail joints. These design features help distribute the weight on the drawers, which improves usability and reduces stress on joints and hinges. Buyers can choose from a variety of cabinet colors, finishes and hardware to fit their space and style. They also can choose from natural stone countertops, such as granite, quartz or cultured marble.

Durable and Beautiful Tile Flooring

When it comes to giving your bathroom a clean and classic look, you cannot beat tile flooring. We offer nearly endless options to fit any style and aesthetic. From marble, ceramic or stone to a natural wood look, unique bathroom tile floors make our bathrooms stand out and stand the test of time.

Tiled Shower Featuring Zero-Step Entry

Like our bathroom floors, we offer premium tile in our showers too. We tile our shower walls well above the shower heads, to ensure that water run-off doesn’t lead to mold or mildew buildup on painted drywall. Many of our showers also feature a shaving bench or zero-step entry. Our zero-step entry showers increase the safety and accessibly of showers and are great options for aging in place.

Premium Lighting Options

From backlit mirrors to beautiful pendants, our premium lighting options illuminate and beautify the bathrooms in the homes we build. Whether a homeowner is getting ready for the day or preparing for big night out, it’s important that the ceiling and vanity lighting set the room aglow.

Premium Plumbing Fixtures

We feature premium Moen bathroom fixtures in a variety of finishes. Whether a home’s style is transitional, modern or traditional, our sink and shower fixtures will provide distinctive design and uncommon luxury.

Accessible Attics: Hidden Gems in Hagood Homes

Posted on by hagood_homes_dev

When you think of an attic, you may be picturing a dark, closed-in area of your house that you rarely visit. But at Hagood Homes, we embrace these hidden gems and have designed them to create greater space and more possibilities for your home.

Extra Space for Storage or Bonus Room Extension

We designed the attic space in Hagood homes to be accessible and have walk-in capabilities. This means you don’t have to mess around with pull-down stairs or a clunky ladder. With our accessible attics, you can walk right in, which makes organization and mobility much easier. With the secure floors in our attics, you won’t need to tiptoe around in fear that one wrong move will send you crashing through the ceiling of the room below.

Truss System

Our homes have a system of incredibly strong trusses that make up the framing of their roofs. This means our attic and roof construction is durable and reliable, which is incredibly important in the coastal Carolinas, where hurricanes are a part of life. Our truss system also allows our homes to have higher ceilings and more storage space, features not found in other builders’ homes.

Improved Insulation

Hagood Homes recently began using FoamsulateTM, a spray foam insulation, in many of our homes. FoamsulateTM is an alternative to traditional insulation and an effective choice for attics and crawl spaces. It creates a thermal envelope that reduces pockets of hot or cold air in attics and throughout homes. When this newer form of insulation is used, homeowners can benefit from an average reduction in energy costs of 40 percent. In addition to less energy use, many homeowners enjoy improved comfort and function in the attic, which is no longer unbearably cold or hot. FoamsulateTM also reduces outdoor allergens, pollutants, and pests.

Jim & Troy Kenny: 2019 Hall of Fame Inductees

Posted on by hagood_homes_dev

Building is in their blood. That is the first thing that comes to everyone’s mind when they meet Jim and Troy Kenny, the founders and leaders of Hagood Homes. The Kenny’s have a long history of custom home building. It’s a craft that has been handed down from generation to generation in the Kenny family.

The first Hagood home stands on one of the prettiest parcels of land in Barnwell, South Carolina, among moss-covered oaks and towering pine trees. Built in 1841, it is still a living, breathing home that feels filled with the spirit of inspiration. Jim’s great-grandfather, Johnson Hagood, was the man responsible for the construction of the first Hagood home.

Jim and Troy continued the Hagood family’s legacy for homebuilding by creating Hagood Homes, Inc. in 1996. 23 years later and 1200+ homes later in Coastal North Carolina and South Carolina the Kenny’s passion and vision is just as strong today as it was the day they started.

BUILDING WITH PURPOSE – THAT IS THE MANTRA OF THE KENNY’S

The Kenny’s met while working for a national builder right out of college. “The first day we met, I knew I would marry her,” Jim says. They proved to be excellent partners, in marriage as well as in business.

The combination of inspiration, heart and hard work has proven successful for Jim and Troy. Jim ensures that every Hagood home is built to his exacting standards, while Troy’s design vision makes every Hagood home a true original. Troy was born with a creative talent that puts her floor plans in a class of their own. She designed her first home when she was 5 and it still hangs in our office today.

Such a track record has helped Hagood Homes earn a number of prestigious awards, including the Parade of Homes Gold Award, which they have won multiple times through their 23 years of building.

A HISTORY OF EXCELLENCE

Jim and Troy also have a strong belief in supporting and giving back. For example Hagood Homes has been a strong supporter and voice within the Home Building Association. They have been a member of the Wilmington-Cape Fear Home Builders for over 25 years. They are also a member of the Hilton Head Area Home Builders Association in South Carolina. Jim was one of four builders to serve on the North Carolina Building Code Council, and in 1998, he served as the president of the Wilmington-Cape Fear Home Builders Association. In 2014 the Kenny’s were honored for all their efforts to help promote New Home Sales within the Cape Fear Region with the Cathy Clark Award through the Associations Cape Fear New Home Sales Marketing Council.

Through community interaction, commitment, professionalism, education, community service and environmental responsibility, we strive for our work and our homes to be showcases of excellence in the home building industry.

The Kenny’s are also grounded in their faith and through their mission travels in the Ukraine felt inspired and found a calling. In 2004 the Kenny’s created the non-profit organization Hagood Hope for Children. This organization serves to help provide the basic necessities of life, food, clothing and shelter, for under privileged children as well expose them to the love of our Lord Jesus Christ. Through hagood hope for children, they have given back over 1.2M to local and international charities focused on improving the lives of children.

Ladies and Gentlemen, we are happy to honor Jim Kenny and Troy Kenny into this year’s 2019 Hall of Fame.
