McMahon Custom Homes Brings Personalized Design-Build Expertise to Hanover County Homeowners
Finding a home in Hanover County often involves trade-offs between location, layout, lot size, updates, price, and construction quality. For many families, the homes available on the market do not meet all their needs. As a result, more residents in Hanover are choosing to build custom homes on their own land with a builder who understands the process and local requirements.
McMahon Custom Homes works with local homeowners to deliver custom homes designed for both the land and the people who will live there. Whether you plan to build on inherited property, develop acreage for long-term living, or move into a house that meets specific expectations, we provide a design-build process focused on value, function, and reliability.
Hanover County sits between the urban features of Greater Richmond and the rural landscape of Central Virginia. Many families choose to live here for the schools, open areas, and strong neighborhood ties. However, finding a suitable home can still be challenging.
In Hanover, many homeowners face challenges like:
We have worked with families in Mechanicsville, Ashland, Beaverdam, Rockville, and nearby areas who wanted to improve their living space while keeping the location, layout, and long-term value intact. Our team brings the knowledge and experience needed to support those goals.
McMahon Custom Homes does not build from stock plans or operate as a high-volume builder. Each home is designed based on your input, the specifics of your lot, and the needs of your household. From the initial meeting to the final walkthrough, all phases of the project are managed internally to provide clear communication and full project visibility.
Our approach is rooted in three things:
The layout of your home should support how you live each day. Our team takes the time to understand your goals, whether you need an open kitchen, a flexible space that serves more than one function, features that support long-term living, or areas designed around specific hobbies. Whether you are planning for a long-term family residence, a smaller home with flexible options, or a house that supports both remote work and gatherings, the design will be based on how you intend to use the space.
Hanover’s land conditions can vary, including steep slopes, wooded areas, private roads, and properties with well and septic systems. These factors affect how and where construction can take place. We review the land and adjust the design to match the conditions of the site. This includes planning for driveway placement, drainage, and other details to support both appearance and function.
You will not be handed off between multiple vendors. Our team manages every part of the project, including permitting, plan development, budgeting, and construction, all handled internally. This helps maintain a clear schedule, stable costs, and a more manageable process.

Building in Hanover County brings unique variables to consider. Here’s how we help simplify the process:
Hanover County includes both residential and rural or agricultural zoning areas. We assist clients with reviewing land they currently own or are considering for purchase. Our services include reviewing zoning ordinances, checking the availability of public utilities, evaluating soil conditions for wells and septic systems, and identifying suitable locations for home placement based on the conditions of the site.
From initial design to move-in day, most McMahon custom homes take approximately 10–14 months, depending on lot conditions, permit timing, and weather. We build with efficiency, but never at the expense of quality or long-term value.
We design homes ranging from 2,000 to over 4,000 square feet, depending on the family’s needs and land availability. Many of our clients opt for single-level living, while others prefer a two-story home with flexible space for office, recreation, or extended family.
