Custom homes for Lake Murray and the Midlands.

Maison & Oak

Thoughtfully built homes, priced with care and finished without compromise.

We build custom homes and complete renovations across Chapin, Lake Murray, Columbia and the surrounding Midlands. We take on a limited number of projects each year, price them conservatively from the start, and manage every one with the discipline of a large-scale builder.

A new collection of homes in Chapin

Six Homes in Chapin

Chapin, SC 29036Releasing over the coming years

We are developing a private collection of six premium homes in Chapin, close to Lake Murray. Each home will be designed for its homesite and built to the same standard as our custom work.

Homes will be released as move-in-ready spec homes over the next several years. Buyers who reach out early can follow each home through construction and, where timing allows, help shape the finishes.

What we build

Owner's Representation

Plan, budget and bid review, plus on-site oversight for owners building with another contractor.

Our Process

From homesite to handover

Every project begins with a consultation on site or by phone to talk through the vision, the property, the budget and the timeline. From there, the work follows a clear sequence.

  1. Site Evaluation

    We assess the property for slope, soils, septic, utilities, setbacks and access so the land supports the home and the budget.

  2. Design & Planning

    We work with your architect or help you select and adapt a plan, balancing design, function and buildability.

  3. Detailed Budget

    A line-item budget built from real trade pricing. We price conservatively so the number holds through construction.

  4. Contract & Permitting

    Defined scope, clear allowances and a draw schedule tied to completed work, followed by permitting and scheduling.

  5. Construction

    Licensed and insured trade partners, regular progress updates, and lien waivers collected at every draw.

  6. Walkthrough & Warranty

    A detailed final walkthrough, a completed punch list, and a one-year builder warranty in writing.
