Tucked between mountain peaks and forest trails, Brevard, North Carolina, is more than just a beautiful place to visit — it’s an incredible place to call home. From its vibrant small-town energy to its world-class outdoor access, Brevard offers the kind of lifestyle that feels both grounded and inspiring. If you’re thinking about building a custom home in Western North Carolina, here’s why Brevard stands out — and why MountainSide Home Builders is the right team to bring your vision to life.

Surrounded by Natural Beauty

Brevard is the gateway to Pisgah National Forest, home to hundreds of miles of trails, iconic waterfalls, and some of the best mountain biking and fly fishing in the country. Whether it’s weekend hikes, scenic drives, or quiet mornings on the porch, life here keeps you close to nature in the best way.

At MountainSide, we understand how to design homes that feel connected to the landscape — capturing views, working with the terrain, and using materials that suit the mountain climate.

Built by Locals Who Know the Land

As a Brevard-based company, MountainSide Home Builders brings hands-on knowledge and local experience to every project. Whether you’re building on your own land or in a planned community, we’re familiar with the region’s building codes, terrain challenges, and seasonal considerations — all of which can save time and frustration.

We use the same skilled team on every build, ensuring a consistent process and quality you can count on. We also offer full-home renovations and additions, with the same attention to detail and craftsmanship that goes into our custom builds.

Discover GlenLaurel Preserve

Just a short drive from downtown Brevard, GlenLaurel Preserve offers a peaceful setting surrounded by forest and protected land. With modern infrastructure like city water, underground utilities, and high-speed internet, it’s an ideal spot for those looking to build in a natural setting without giving up everyday convenience.

It’s also home to our Courtyard Home Collection — a community of well-crafted, low-maintenance homes that offer the design quality of a custom build, at a price point that makes sense for downsizers, second-home buyers, and those looking to simplify.

Personalized Design, Start to Finish

Every home we build is tailored to our clients — their style, their needs, their lifestyle. Our Design Studio gives you the opportunity to choose finishes, materials, and features with expert guidance along the way. Whether you’re after something modern, rustic, traditional, or uniquely yours, we’ll help bring it to life.

Small‑Town Living, Big‑Time Access

Brevard offers a rare combination of charm and connection. You’re never far from great food, music, and community events — or the essentials like healthcare, schools, and shopping. From world-class performances at the Brevard Music Center, with symphonies, opera, and jazz, to local bluegrass jams around town, there’s always something happening nearby. And with Asheville less than an hour away, you get big-city amenities without giving up the peace of mountain living.
