Building custom homes in the Richmond metro area since 1999, Legacy Homes only knows one way to build a home. Craftsmanship and communication are the cornerstones of our reputation. Providing a positive experience and delivering a quality home to our clients is our ultimate goal.
We are owned and operated by Travis Johnson, who brings over 25 years of hands-on experience to the table and is passionate about delivering the level of quality, service, and communication that every client should expect when building a new home. 
 In addition to the numerous custom homes we have built on privately-owned land, Legacy Homes has also built in various local neighborhoods. Most recently, Travis developed Swann's Inn Estates in central Goochland County, just 20 minutes west of Short Pump/Glen Allen.

Our company is family operated out of Rockville, Virginia.

Here's what some of our clents had to say about working with us...

"We can't say enough great things about Legacy Homes. From start to finish we had the most amazing experience. Lorrie and Travis are an absolute dream team when it comes to designing your custom home! The responsiveness is unlike anything we've heard of from our friends who have built in RVA. Instead of a project manager that you can only speak to once a week, you get real-time communication via Lorrie and Travis' cell phones. This saved so much time on the many questions we had.
Change orders were also not a thing when it came to Legacy Homes. If they were able to accommodate our change request, they did. And believe me, we had a lot of them. If you're looking to build a custom soon, contact Legacy Homes. 10 out of 10 stars." S. Godwin 11/7/22


"We’ve only got a few things to say about Legacy Homes and Lorrie & Travis: You will never find better people to work with and even more important great people- Period!  We had been looking for a home in Goochland with 1st floor living since we are getting up in years and climbing steps was becoming a real chore. My wife saw Swann’s Inn Estates in one of the real estate lists and we decided to go have a look. We met Travis and Lorrie on Saturday at one of the houses they were finishing up and immediately saw the quality of construction and finishing they put into their product and were sold. We signed a contract to purchase the following Monday morning! When Travis and Lorrie tell you something in relation to the new house it happens as promised and even better, when you ask for modifications or alterations from original plans, Travis makes it happen. We made modifications and additions constantly throughout the build and Travis and Lorrie were wonderful about accommodating us. Not only were Travis and Lorrie great, but their subs are the best! From the masons to the roofers, and the trades in between, all went above and beyond to do what we wanted and the way we wanted it done. All of the vendors/suppliers were receptive, patient, knowledgeable and very helpful with the selection process for the various features like electrical fixtures, cabinetry, flooring, tiling, etc. I know you could not make a better choice for your new home construction." S.

"Building a custom home requires so many decisions and we felt choosing the right builder was the most important decision we would make.  We met with several builders, but after our first meeting with Travis Johnson and Lorrie Binns of Legacy Homes, we knew we found our builder.  Open, honest, and knowledgeable is how we would describe Travis.  As the process went forward, Legacy Homes helped us through the steps, presenting options, updating us on activities, and ensured our satisfaction from beginning to end.  Our home is beautiful and we could not be happier.  It was such a pleasure to work with professionals that take great pride in their work and deliver a quality product.  If you are looking for an excellent custom home that exceeds your expectations and a headache free building process, Legacy Homes is the right place to start."

"We were truly blessed to have had Legacy Homes build our dream home. From the second I saw this home on the website I fell in love. I was so surprised when my 10 pm e-mail request for information was answered within minutes, and six months later my dream house was a reality. The entire building process with Travis Johnson seemed too good to be true - from start to finish he far surpassed all of my expectations. Finding a builder who takes such pride in his work and truly cares about each individual customer is a rare find. He was so accommodating to all of the unique personal touches we wanted to add to our home, and he takes great care of his customers through every phase of the building process. We are now the proud owners of  a beautiful farmhouse that our family will be able to enjoy for generations to come.  I absolutely recommend Legacy Homes and couldn’t imagine going through this experience with anyone else! " K. Childress 5/27/19

"I highly recommend Legacy Homes if anyone is interested in building a customized, quality home.  We were interested in building our dream home and had talked to a couple of other builders, before we were referred to Legacy Homes by a friend who had a home built by them.   We were very impressed with the owner Travis Johnson when we met with him, and he helped us find the perfect floor plan.  The building process went well, and Travis was very accommodating to all my special requests, even down to the paw print doorbell!   We’ve been in our house for 8 years now and we couldn’t be happier with our forever home."  C.
