Based in Wake Forest. Building From the Lakes to the Coast.
Hawthorne Emory is a Wake Forest-based, licensed general contractor serving homeowners throughout our immediate community and selected lakefront and coastal areas of North Carolina.
We specialize in major renovations, additions and custom homes requiring experienced planning, comprehensive construction management and direct owner involvement.
Being based in Wake Forest allows us to provide close oversight and consistent communication throughout substantial residential projects.
Region Two
North Carolina Lake Homes
Building for Life on the Water.
Specialized Lake Communities
Lake Royale
Kerr Lake
Lake Gaston
Lake homes require thoughtful consideration of the property, views, outdoor living, materials and long-term exposure. Whether transforming an existing waterfront home or building from the ground up, we plan the project around both the property and the way you want to live.
Land Guidance
You do not need to own land before contacting us. We can become involved early to help evaluate whether a potential property reasonably supports your plans and anticipated investment.
Region Three
Outer Banks Coast
Homes Designed for Coastal Living.
We accept selected projects along North Carolina’s Outer Banks, with a focus on substantial renovations, additions and custom coastal homes.
Architectural Focus
Building near the coast requires informed decisions about design, exposure, durability and material performance. Our approach balances architectural character and everyday comfort with the practical demands of the coastal environment.
