Design-Build Custom Homes Crafted for Chesterfield County Living
Chesterfield, VA, is a growing residential area where many families are choosing to settle. With available land and established neighborhoods, it remains a location where homeowners can plan and build homes that meet their specific needs and preferences. McMahon Custom Homes works with residents across Chesterfield County to build personalized homes using a structured design-build process focused on transparency, quality, and long-term value.
The company is familiar with the different parts of Chesterfield, including established areas like Midlothian and Bon Air, as well as expanding communities such as Woodlake, Brandermill, and Meadowbrook. Each project reflects the way people in these communities prefer to live, host gatherings, and plan for future household needs.
Why Chesterfield Homeowners Are Choosing to Build Custom
Over the past decade, Chesterfield County has seen steady population growth and now has more than 360,000 residents. As more families move in and long-time residents look for permanent housing solutions, many discover that resale homes often come with trade-offs. These may include older layouts, expensive repairs, outdated systems, or locations that do not match their preferences.
McMahon Custom Homes offers an alternative: a building process that allows each home to be planned according to the homeowner’s needs and lifestyle.
Common reasons families in Chesterfield choose to build with us:
- They own land and want to build on their lot in areas like Matoaca, Chester, or Rockwood
- Their growing family needs a larger, open-concept layout with flexible rooms
- They're downsizing and want low-maintenance, single-level living
- They want a home that supports multi-generational living
- They're frustrated with bidding wars and overpriced resales in Chesterfield's hot housing market
No matter the goal, we deliver homes that blend function, aesthetics, and investment value.

Chesterfield-Focused. Relationship-Driven.
McMahon Custom Homes is a locally owned and operated builder with strong connections to Central Virginia. Unlike large-scale builders, we do not follow a uniform process. Each home we construct in Chesterfield County is planned based on the lot’s features, the client’s preferences, and the character of the surrounding area.
Whether working in Bon Air’s established neighborhoods, Midlothian’s organized developments, Ettrick’s spacious rural sites, or near the water in Woodlake, we plan and build homes that match their surroundings and meet the practical needs of the residents.
