Meeting Street Homes & Communities has been building homes of distinction with a focus on townhomes, live/work townhomes and detached single-family homes in the Charlotte market since 1996 and in the Charleston area since 2003. Meeting Street is a leader in creating walkable and beautiful villages consistent with the "Smart Growth" (shared green space) movement, while offering affordable homes with classical architectural detailing normally found only in the finest custom homes.
Meeting Street, an award-winning homebuilding company, was founded by Joe Roy to bring custom attention to all aspects of a community through an innovative manufacturing process. "The company is truly a team", said Roy. "We play together. We work together. It is through the diligence and ownership amongst our employees that we are making history in creating beautiful and functional communities."
Meeting Street provides unique and quality homes at affordable prices, while making excellent customer service a key priority. "We are continually improving our systems and processes, we make it easier for our builders to focus on the homebuyer" said Roy.
WALKABLE
Meeting Street is responding to the needs of the growing number of Americans who prefer to live in a new type of neighborhood where the pedestrian is not an afterthought, and where interesting places within walking distance are as important as the quality of the interior finishing of the home. Building our homes or townhomes out in the middle of nowhere is not an option. Thus, the communities we build are conceived and designed in such a manner as to encourage interaction with neighbors and reduce mandatory time spent in cars by being near places of work and shopping.
Through our commitment to establish pedestrian-friendly communities, streets are often narrow (to slow traffic), and lined with shade trees to soften the density and beautify your vistas. Wide sidewalks line both sides of the street and are adorned by traditional styled lampposts.
BEAUTIFUL
Meeting Street takes pride in building on the traditions of classic homes in the finest old neighborhoods such as Charleston (home of the original Meeting Street), New Orleans, Boston, Alexandria, Georgetown and Savannah, where you will see many finely landscaped public squares - the inspiration of many of our neighborhood land plans.
The interesting streetscapes of these quaint, elegant cities with their varied old brick townhomes and diversified neighborhood centers influence our material selections and our ideas on livable porches, landscaping and authentic architectural details. The artful arrangement of our buildings and the use of a nostalgic theme add another dimension of beauty in our communities. Wherever possible, buildings are positioned to form town-style squares and open spaces, or take advantage of scenic views and vistas. Garages and utilities are unobtrusively located behind each home on a service alley. Click on the attached photos to compare our community to the more typical suburban approach to home building. After all, a picture speaks a thousand words.
Meeting Street is thorough in its approach to planning and developing a community from the great attention to detail to the effective use of key architectural elements. It all starts with visiting other countries, cities and old-world communities ranging from Europe to the superb homes of Myers Park and Dilworth. This allows us to explore and to see first-hand the architecture, planning and streetscapes that have endured over the years and still bring daily delight to their owners and visitors.
To bring these visions to reality and help design and engineer a community, we use award-winning professionals including David Furman Architecture, Shook-Kelly, LandDesign, DPZ, Seamon-Whiteside, and Christopher Phelps Associates. The result is evident in the proportion, scale, rooflines and details of our homes, and in the integration of natural areas and green space for our communities.
AFFORDABLE
Through an innovative manufacturing process, Meeting Street focuses on bringing classic architectural details that are normally found only in the most expensive custom homes to the more affordable price range. The end result is that residents get custom-style homes in a timely manner without custom-home prices. Streamlining our manufacturing process also allows us to maintain our commitment to responsible planning and to create inspirational communities.
We often find that it is more a matter of obsessive attention to detail and desire to excel than a matter of just adding cost to the home budget. We are committed to building quality homes priced from the low $110,000's to the mid $500,000's. Depending on your needs, Meeting Street has the perfect home for you.
When we develop a Meeting Street community, it's about more than building houses; it's about building communities, based on the lessons learned from traditional streetscapes that have stood the test of time. Simply put, it's where the best of yesterday meets the best of today.
Maybe your Meeting Street community will one day be a place of history. Hide

Review in Charlotte, NC
Meeting Street was a great builder to work with. Throughout the buying process, they stayed in constant communication, answered my questions thoroughly and overall made the process relatively painless.
Review in Davidson, NC
Definitely an innovative builder with unique community design & construction that takes their projects out of the ordinary and makes them special places to live in
David M.
We've built multiple homes over the years across the US and our experience working with builders ranges from absolutely horrible to outstanding. Meeting Street is in the outstanding category and not because everything was flawless. No construction project runs without some detours and roadblocks along the way. The key is effective communication, managing expectations, construction quality, timely follow-up, and trust. In these areas, Meeting Street excels. We made a good choice and are happy with the final product despite Covid, supply chain problems, and unforeseen labor issues that had to be overcome. Bravo!
Timothy S.
Given the price range that I bought my home in, I would recommend Meeting Street Homes & Communities to a friend. It was a pretty good value.
Review in Charlotte, NC
As a first time homeowner, I was initially nervous about the home-buying process, but it ended up being much easier than I expected. Nora and John were extremely helpful and communicative, and both my realtor and my third-party inspector were very impressed with the building material/quality.
Vivek S.
They have a very good quality of construction. I would recommend them.
Catherine M.
High caliber and top quality builder.
Joseph G.
I was originally placed next to the woods, but now they have build a bunch of apartments right next to me. The homes are close together so you have to put up with everyone's business.
Review in Charlotte, NC

Recognized Excellence - John Ammeratta and Denise were both exceptional
Additional Comments
Additional Comments - Although we will have to re-paint the house and replace bad carpeting on the first floor, we still have had a great experience with Meeting Street and I cannot say enough good things about John and how well he's taken care of our concerns along the way.
Problem Resolution
Problem Resolution - Austyn was great at addressing our concerns around closing
Construction Schedule
Construction Schedule - All items weren't completed by closing, but was completed within a week or so after closing; communication with Austyn was GREAT
Additional Comments
Additional Comments - Overall our experience with Austyn, Denise, and John were fantastic. The home is great and they were all extremely responsive and I felt like they all genuinely cared to produce the best product they could. Our biggest issues pertain to not having the home 100% completed by closing, the poor quality in the paint, and the quality of the trim in a couple locations (that we missed in our walkthrough but that the sub cut some corners to complete on the aggressive timeline). That being said, we'd recommend Meeting Street and have already recommended Meeting Street to our friends and family.

Construction Quality
Construction Quality - There are a few minor issues, I assume every new house has. We will be emailing our 60 day list to Meeting Street and I'm sure Carrie will be able to address/fix all the issues.
Problem Resolution
Problem Resolution - Carrie has been truly remarkable. Every time I have needed to reach out to her for a question, issue or problem, she is on it! She is kind, professional and genuinely cares about her homes and her new homeowners.
Additional Comments
Additional Comments - We are so impressed with Carrie. Not only was Carrie knowledgeable about everything we asked regarding the house, she was genuinely helpful everytime we needed her. Carrie truly is the face of Meeting Street for us, because we moved from Wisconsin and had no interaction or knowledge of Meeting Street prior to the day I first walked through the house in early July. Carrie also worked great with our real estate agents, as they had to do the walk through for us. Carrie actually got on the phone/we FaceTimed as she and our real estate agents were in the house. Please note, this survey is highlighed below that it is "Share as Timothy S." however, this is Wendy Scott responding to this survey. I have had the most interactions with Carrie, as I was here a month before my husband. We both give Carrie 5 stars and we love our home!

The sales representative, Denise, was really awesome during the experience! My only issue was with the confusion with what they do with the first year warranty - what they will correct and won't correct.
