“I Really Like This House…”
While swinging hammers on a Habitat for Humanity house, Evans Coghill Homes partners Alan Banks and Chris Folk built the foundation for their own homebuilding company.
Folk, a licensed general contractor building infill homes in Charlotte’s most desirable neighborhoods, and Banks, a mechanical engineer who built a successful publishing business cornered on the homebuilding industry, strengthened their friendship during those days out in the hot sun and saw that their combined talents could sustain a superior company.
Borrowing from their middle names, which happened to be their grandmother’s maiden names, Evans Coghill Homes was formed in 2000, focusing on uncommon craftsmanship, a penchant for organization and details, and a commitment to build homes tailored to the individual owners. The pair makes the perfect team – combining Chris’s construction and product knowledge expertise with Alan’s business management, finance and marketing know-how.
Timeless Homes, Enduring Reputation Evans Coghill Homes has become a preferred builder in some of the Carolinas most successful neighborhood developments, raising the bar for quality construction and proving demand in previously untested markets. Evans Coghill Homes built a reputation for building classically designed homes with traditional elevations. Our homes are especially attractive to buyers who want right-size living. That means homes that use moneysaving, environmentally sound materials to build sensible homes where square-footage isn’t wasted and luxuries are plentiful.
Those features that are evident to every visitor to an Evans Coghill Home and include oversized staircase handrails, granite countertops, hand-sanded and handfinished hardwood floors, raised ceilings and custom trim work. Evans Coghill Homes became one of the region’s first firms trained in such forward-thinking programs as EarthCraft. High performance features are standard in every Evans Coghill Home, and all include such features as high performance, low e windows, low VOC paints and energy efficient heating and cooling systems.
