Happy Homeowner Feature: Chad McGlaughlin

Nestled in the breathtaking setting of Carolina Beach, NC, Chad McGlaughlin’s dream home is a testament to the Richard Wallace Builder’s promise to partner with clients to achieve the dream of living a coastal lifestyle.

Originally from the scenic Shenandoah Valley in Virginia, McGlaughlin found his haven in this seaside community when visiting his sister. After falling in love with the locale, he embarked on a journey with Richard Wallace Builder to build his perfect abode.

McGlaughlin said, “We’ve been friends with the Wallace family for six years because they live next to my sister.”

When searching for a lot to build his dream home, McGlaughlin discovered an available piece of land just one block away from Greg Wallace’s home as well as his sister’s. Due to a scarcity of well-placed and available spots, the choice was serendipitous!

McGlaughlin said, “We chose [Richard Wallace Builder] because the ideal lot was for sale. We weren’t going to have this opportunity again!”

The allure of Carolina Beach extends beyond the sandy shores for McGlaughlin. He shared that the lifestyle on the island is unparalleled. It’s hard to beat living a few blocks from the beach and navigating life via a golf cart!

During his construction journey with Richard Wallace Builder, he remarked on the seamless communication and transparency of the team. Each week, his family received an update on the progress, upcoming milestones and any developments to ensure the process was smooth sailing.

When asked about his favorite aspect of the home, he emphasized the allure of living in a single-floor layout and having an expansive outdoor space. The unified floor plan features an easy-to-navigate floor plan, with the pool and patio serving as a focal point for gatherings and relaxation.

McGlaughlin said, “[To the Richard Wallace Builder team,] thank you for the great experience and for providing us with a wonderful home we will enjoy for a long time.”

McGlaughlin’s experience with our team is the perfect example of our commitment to providing each client with vision, craftsmanship and collaboration. Want to build your dream home on Carolina’s coast? Contact our team at 910-520-5056 or online today.
