Privacy. Security. A strong sense of community. Amenities. These are just a few reasons people live in gated communities. Let’s look at the gated communities where Hagood is a premier builder and the exceptional Hagood homes you can tour or purchase in each.

Building Your Coastal Carolina Dream Home

Hagood can build your dream home in several gated communities throughout the coastal Carolinas. Whether you want to start from the ground up with the perfect floor plan or prefer a home that’s move-in ready, you’ll find the perfect option to fit your lifestyle. Let’s look at each community so you can decide where you would like to call home in the coastal Carolinas!

The Bluffs on the Cape Fear

Nature is just beyond your front door at the Bluffs on the Cape Fear, where much of its over 600 acres are protected woodlands. Community members enjoy exclusive use of trails that wind through mature trees, a fishing lake with paddle boats, a clubhouse with a massive pool, a waterfront park, a marina, tennis courts, and other resort-style amenities.

You can check out our Harbour Side Canted. The model impresses with a large great room under a vaulted ceiling in an open-plan design filled with natural light. In this spacious floor plan, you’ll find Lowcountry-inspired design details, such as the farmhouse sink in the chef’s kitchen and natural hardwood floors. The large screened porch with woodland views is perfect for enjoying the mild Carolina weather.

You can also visit a Harbour Town III. This home’s first floor provides an unobstructed view of nature through the floor-to-ceiling windows of a four-season room. The great room’s coffered ceiling and brick fireplace carry the architectural traditions of fine Carolina homes, while a two-story foyer creates a grand entranceway.

The second floor has one of the home’s most popular features: a covered deck with gorgeous views of nature.
