Our History

Our History

Our Legacy.

Founded by Joseph K. Stewart in 1977, Eastwood Homes is a privately held residential builder with consistent track record of industry success and financial health.

After graduating from Appalachian State University and serving in the U.S. Army, it was Joe's dream to build reasonably priced homes of superior quality, while maintaining a focus on conducting business with integrity. Unlike national builders, he was determined never to be driven by Wall Street profits, but instead by his desire to exceed the expectation of buyers by delighting them in every step of the building process.

45 years later, Joe, his son and business partner Clark Stewart, and the entire management team at Eastwood Homes work together to carry on this dream. With corporate headquarters in Charlotte, NC, Eastwood Homes now serves communities throughout North Carolina, South Carolina, Virginia, and Georgia.

Our Mission

Our Mission

Driven by integrity and our core values, we build homes of exceptional value and outstanding craftsmanship while delivering unparalleled customer service. Our purpose is to ensure our Customers, Employees, and Trade Partners will recommend us with confidence, inspiring every homeowner to say,

""Eastwood Homes, That's My Builder.""

Our Growth

Eastwood Homes has experienced steady growth over its many years in the business. Expansions have been well-thought-out, stable, and calculated. Since the owner and founder is a Carolina native, his personal knowledge of the region has aided in the successful expansion of Eastwood Homes.

Each of the eight divisions of Eastwood Homes has a slightly different appeal, despite their relatively close proximity to the headquarters in Charlotte. Although you will find varying personalities across the regions, all divisions have the same mission – to build homes of exceptional value and outstanding craftsmanship while delivering unparalleled customer service. Activities in all divisions are still monitored by the founder himself, providing a true hometown appeal to all communities.

Expanding into South Carolina

In 2017, Eastwood Homes announced the acquisition of Fortress Homes, a privately-held builder headquartered in Columbia, SC.

An industry-recognized leader in new home construction, Fortress Homes offers a broad range of products, move-in ready homes, and a state-of-the-art Design Studio (much like Eastwood). In 2018, Fortress Homes transitioned to the Eastwood Homes, Columbia SC division where Eastwood will continue its commitment to be a Builder of Integrity and ensure that each and every home is Built with Care.

On our way to Columbia, SC!

Now with 15,000+ happy homeowners, six flourishing divisions, and 40 years in business under our belts, we are ready to further our growth in the Southeast! With the acquisition of Fortress Homes, we are excited to announce that Eastwood Homes will be building in Columbia, SC!
