Today I had the joy of discovering new communities that made me feel instantly at home. One, in South Carolina, was a horse-driven development where it boasted miles upon miles of horse trails. The other, Kate’s Cove in Rincon, is quiet yet beautiful. I stepped out of the car gazing upon grand homes with beautiful detailing.  Mr. Freddie Long, of LongBuilders escorted me to two of their favorite homes they’ve developed and built.

During the car ride I learned that LongBuilders is now in it’s third generation of family owners. How Mr. Freddie has a mind like an elephant and remembers all the details and intricacies of all his current projects, while his son is more inclined towards calendars :) Another neat fact is LongBuilders was started by Mr. Freddie’s father who completed up to third grade and now Mr. Freddie’s son, with a degree from GA Tech, is co-owning the business with him.

I’m excited about the next chapter of LongBuiders. They hired a marvelous design and development firm, Focus Lab to create a site for them. The site needed images of recent homes, to which Focus referred me. Below are my favorites. I’m eager to see which ones get selected for LongBuilders’ site.
