Best Interior Design & Merchandising for a Home 2,501 to 4,000 sqft: The Ashton at The Retreat 

The Ashton model in the Retreat at Ocean Isle Beach was designed with the community and coastal area in mind. Located just one mile away from the sandy beaches of Ocean Isle, living at The Retreat is like taking a permanent vacation. Our Design Team wanted to create a model home that spoke to buyers interested in the southeastern coastal lifestyle. They filled the Ashton with trending selections that appeal to all tastes and preferences. The interior color palette includes bright whites, neutrals, and hints of blue tile. Our Staging Specialist capitalized on creating the coastal lifestyle feel in this home by furnishing the Ashton with classic coastal pieces and incorporating touches of blue to pull out the interior selections. We included an array of design selection levels in this home, from high-end upgrades to standard features - this allows clients of various price points to visualize what they can choose from when building their homes.

Best Logo for A Community: The Sanctuary

The composition of the Sanctuary logo is based on the location of this new home community. Sunset Beach is home to a bird sanctuary, thus "The Sanctuary at Sunset Beach," and a bird emblem as the logo. 

About the Bird Sanctuary: This natural area is one of 10 sites comprising the North Carolina Coastal Reserve & National Estuarine Research Reserve. Preservation of the Bird Island Reserve allows this coastal ecosystem to be available as an outdoor laboratory where scientists, students, and the public can learn about processes, functions, and influences that shape and sustain the coastal area. A popular destination for boaters, beachcombers, and bicyclists, visitors are invited to enjoy this perfect Sanctuary, learn about wildlife, and experience the history and habitats of the beautiful coastal preserve.

About the Community: Voted one of America's Best Places to Live by Ideal Living. The Sanctuary at Sunset Beach is the epitome of beach living with the added convenience and low maintenance of a planned community. Resort-inspired amenities will make a weekend at home feel like a vacation getaway. Located steps away from local shops and restaurants, you can enjoy the laid-back coastal lifestyle that Sunset Beach is known for. Let The Sanctuary at Sunset Beach be your oasis at home! Amenities within the community will include a resort-style pool, coastal clubhouse, fitness center, cabanas, outdoor fireplace, an outdoor lounge, grilling stations, golf cart parking, and miles of sidewalks & walking paths. The Sanctuary is only minutes from the beach and close to various restaurants, shops, bars, golf courses, local markets, and public parks.

We are currently offering homes and homesites in the Sanctuary at Sunset Beach! You can choose one of our currently available homes or select a homesite and build your ideal home from our portfolio of plans. Go to TheSanctuaryAtSunsetBeach.com to see our available homes, available homesites, and our portfolio of home plans.

Best Brochure for a Community: The Sanctuary

This project includes our Sanctuary Community Brochure and the Sanctuary Master Color Palette. The Brochure and Master Color Palette serve as a set of two that together educate interested buyers about this stunning new community. The brochure underlines the community features and amenities and exhibits the highlights of Sunset Beach and its marvelous location. Also inside the booklet is a detailed drawing of the amenity center map, clubhouse, and fireplace pavilion. The Master Color Palette showcases our designer-curated color options for the home exteriors of The Sanctuary. All the home exteriors in this community are characterized by shades of white with undertones of coastal colors. The palette consists of colors borrowed from the sand, sea, sun, and salt. This unified color scheme of homes forms a sense of harmony, creates a charming streetscape aesthetic, and constructs a welcoming atmosphere for visitors and residents. The Master Color Palette booklet gives potential buyers a feel for the community's visual ambiance and allows them to see their numerous options in an organized layout.

Best Website for a Home Builder

A customer's journey starts online, and this first step in the home-buying process is critical for the buyer's research - it should be painless and exciting! We strive for our websites to be where customers educate themselves and narrow down their options and possibilities. Our websites are designed to enhance the client experience by providing home buyers with easy access to necessary tools and information. Our company comprises two distinctive brands, Bill Clark Homes and Legacy Homes by Bill Clark. To ensure home buyers have an effortless online experience, we have two websites (BillClarkHomes.com and LegacyHomesByBillClarkHomes.com) that seamlessly link to one another in several places throughout each interface. We crafted websites that are easy to navigate, have a clear portrayal of what we offer, and visually aid users in their education of our services. We want every step of our customers' process to be enjoyable — including the research stage! Both websites contain diverse tools and technology to simplify the process for home buyers. These helpful features include an interactive map of all our communities, our portfolio of home plans, interactive floor plans, interactive site maps, room planners, virtual 3-D home tours, automated flyers, a virtual Design Studio, a Client Portal, a "My Favorites Tool", user accounts, search filters, and extensive photovideo, and tour galleries.
