Our Most Loved Floor Plans for New Homes in Charlotte, NC

Finding the right floor plan is one of the most exciting—and important—parts of building or buying a new home.

From entertaining guests and working remotely to raising a family or accommodating multiple generations under one roof, choosing the right layout makes all the difference.

“We love our Vista home! The Vista team was easy to work with and very responsive. We found our own lot and worked with Vista to build on it. It was perfect, as we were able to save some costs compared to a custom build and not have to stress about every little detail. We get complimented often on the quality of our finishes, fixtures, and appliances, which are all standard in Vista homes!”

Nicole B.
"Where do I even start!?! Vista is a no brainer choice if you want to live in a desirable neighborhood and have one of the nicest, well-built homes! Throughout my entire process Chandler made me feel heard, and over-communicated everything with me which put me at so much ease. Two years later and my home is my favorite place to be because of Vista! I am already thinking about the future with them!!! Thanks y'all!"

Brantley Belk
"We purchased an older home, thinking we'd knock it down and build a custom home. We quickly realized that not only was the architectural design/engineering process a hassle, but the cost was quickly exceeding our budget. After stalling our project for 9 months, we stumbled upon Vista and quickly found our builder. Vista had upgraded finishes, which are typically an additional cost, but not with Vista. My husband and I can not say enough good things about Vista and their process. We referred our friends who also built a Vista home on their lot."

Anne Ganim
"The team at Vista from start to finish (and beyond) were wonderful to work with. We met with many builders before choosing Vista and had a wonderful experience. Truly, couldn’t have had a better experience. The quality and efficiency were outstanding. Highly recommend, you’re in GREAT hands with Vista."

The project managers, sales coordinator, and other services we received in regards to our home were top-notch...Thank you Vista Homes for building just where we wanted to be! We couldn’t be happier with our new home.”

“Can I give 10 stars?! Vista Homes is by far my vote for the best quality, most honest, and overall most knowledgeable builder in the Charlotte area. I have completed probably a dozen deals with Vista and each experience is somehow better than the last! The whole team is great- everyone from ownership, sales people, admin/office crew to contractors. Anyone looking for the best possible experience when building a new home should without a doubt call these guys!”

Garrett K.
“We have been in our Vista Home for over a year and still can't believe we’re fortunate enough to live here! Vista provided us with our dream home at an incredible value. A recent appraisal estimates that we have gained $70k in equity already. If you are looking for a beautiful, quality home in some of the hottest areas in Charlotte. I highly recommend you look at a Vista home."
