From Matt Green the President & CEO: “When my grandmother left her front light on at her home, it meant that you could come into the house and gain access to the candy jar or eat fresh baked cookies.

It’s these memories that remind all of us that these rooted traditions remain strong and steady in our ever changing world today.”

The

Design Center

One

of the most exciting

steps when building with

Front Light

is

designing your new home.

We strive to make the design process as easy and fun as possible for our clients. That’s why we have compiled nearly every finish option available for our homes, from the trim to the tile and everything in between, and made samples available to new clients right in our office.

Clients can now visualize and design their homes quickly and often in just one session with the help of our design experts. As our client, you will work directly with our Director of Design who offers a hands-on, professional, and fun experience.

Our goal is to create a design-focused space that streamlines your selection-making process. Please note that design appointments can vary in time based on the size of your home. We’ll be there every step of the way to ensure your dream becomes reality.

Don’t Just Take Our Word For It INTEGRITY, TRANSPARENCY, AND DEPENDABILITY”

“WE LOVE BEING PART OF THE FRONT LIGHT FAMILY!”

“IMPECCABLE ATTENTION TO DETAIL AND QUALITY”

“Three traits characterize our experience with Front Light Building Company, the builder of our Palmetto Bluff home: Quality, Integrity, and Performance. This starts with a quality team that strives for excellence, professionalism, and customer satisfaction. That quality extends to the materials, craftsmanship, and selection options.

“When we decided to build our retirement home in Pinckney Retreat while we were living in Washington State, we assumed it would be a challenge. As soon as we met with Matt and his team, we knew that was not going to be an issue. They kept us updated through every step of the process, including pictures along the way! We chose a Front Light plan and customized it to fit our needs and we couldn’t be happier with the quality Lowcountry home that they built for us. We love being part of the Front Light family!”

“…We could not be more satisfied with our experience working with Matt and the awesome team at Front Light. From the CEO to the site managers to all the folks behind the scenes, everyone has welcomed us so warmly, not just as clients, but as partners and friends…delivering our dream home with impeccable attention to detail and quality, both on budget and on time.“

~ PETE & CHERYL GAILLARD

“EASY TO WORK WITH”

Integrity, transparency, and dependability permeate the entire organization making our interactions uniformly positive and highly collaborative. Finally, the performance has met or exceeded our expectations. These professionals engage to creatively solve issues to our satisfaction- they deliver and take pride in their work.” ~ ALICE & TOMMY WRIGHT

~ MIKE & DIANE

“Front Light built our current home and our previous home. We loved our previous home so much, we asked them to build our new one. Many high-end items are included in their price, which makes it nice without spending a ton on upgrades. Easy to work with and a beautiful finished product.“ ~ ANNE
