Build a custom home in Spring Hope, NC
We don’t just build in Spring Hope — we hold lots here, in the Village of Old Spring Hope, starting at $75,000. Pair one with any of our 20+ plans and published pricing, and you can skip the land hunt entirely.
The town where we’re not just the builder. We’re a landowner.
Spring Hope is where the Triangle’s east side turns into honest small-town Nash County — and where a land budget does what it can’t do in Wake. Hornet Homes holds lots in the Village of Old Spring Hope, so building here can start with a walk on land we already know down to the dirt.
Published pricing. Actually published.
Most builders make you book a meeting to hear a number. Ours are on the site: across our 20+ plans, homes run from $283,000 to just over $1,000,000 — and every plan’s real price is published on its page.
And the price means more than usual, because site work is typically in it: survey, soil testing, septic design and a conventional install, a well to 300 feet, utility connections, clearing and grading. Land and finish upgrades are separate, and the lot walk confirms what your lot needs — but you’re starting from a real number, not a teaser base price.
We price each plan as a whole home. The full breakdown — what’s in the number, what isn’t, and every published price — is in our cost guide →
Three anchors from the price list
The honest read on Spring Hope land
Two ways in: our own Village of Old Spring Hope lots, or the open Nash County market — we’ll walk either with you.
What the map actually looks like
East of Raleigh, the land math flips: acreage is real, prices are gentler, and percolation is generally easier than on the Triangle’s west side — the watch items become floodplain and low, wet ground, which we screen on every parcel. Spring Hope sits right in that sweet spot, an easy run down US-64.
And here we have something no listing search gives you: our own lots in the Village of Old Spring Hope, from $75,000 — walked, known, and ready to pair with a plan. Ask about the Village lots →
What we check before you offer
Buying on the open market instead? Send us any listing and we’ll screen it the way we screen lots for ourselves, then walk it with you:
- Floodplain and low, wet ground on the FEMA map and county GIS
- Perc paperwork quality — a soil engineer’s letter, or just a map with drill marks?
- Utilities — town water/sewer in town, or well and septic
- Lot width against the floor plans you actually want
- The aerial vs. the listing photos — a freshly cleared lot has a story

From Spring Hope lot to keys in hand
Nine to twelve months start to finish is typical — and you’ll always know which step you’re on.
Walk the land
Bring us your lot — or a listing you’re eyeing — and we’ll walk it together: soil, septic, topography, driveway, and which of our plans fit the lot. You leave knowing what the home would cost on it.
Lock the number
A single all-in fixed price built from real trade bids — never cost-plus. Everything in your home is spelled out, and the price is one number for all of it. Upgrades are your choice, each one shows its price before you pick it, and you make all your selections before we break ground. We handle permitting with the Town of Spring Hope or Nash County.
Build it right
About six months of construction with milestone walkthroughs, then a one-year workmanship-and-materials warranty (with a nail-pop and touch-up visit) and a 10-year structural warranty, both backed by Hornet Homes. Our office is in Apex — and our own lots keep us in Spring Hope regularly.
