Custom builders bring a unique approach to home construction, offering personalized designs that reflect homeowners' individual needs and styles. Unlike standard production builders, custom homebuilders focus on creating one-of-a-kind spaces, blending high-quality craftsmanship with thoughtful innovation to deliver homes tailored to fit both function and lifestyle. In Virginia, Eagle Construction embodies these principles by delivering homes that combine modern design with practical, homeowner-focused features. Their thoughtful layouts, like open floor plans and features such as opening glass doors, create flexible spaces that enhance daily living while increasing property value. Their sought-after developments span grand-scale communities, custom-designed residences, and revitalized historic properties, each project surpassing the highest standards of excellence.

The custom builders’ approach to space design with the integration of opening glass walls, transforms conventional boundaries into fluid, expansive living areas. Developers and homeowners alike value the way these thoughtful design features enhance property appeal while increasing property value, offering a strong ROI in the long run.
Maximizing Home Value and ROI with Custom Homes
Eagle Construction’s focus as custom builders is on delivering homes that not only enhance daily living but also maximize property value and return on investment. Through innovative design solutions, such as the integration of opening glass doors, they redefine traditional layouts to create versatile, expansive spaces that appeal to modern buyers. These features elevate the aesthetic appeal of a home and contribute to its marketability, making it a smart choice for homeowners and developers alike. As custom builders, Eagle’s attention to quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design ensures their homes are functional and visually striking.
“When we did the research: the components that NanaWall uses, the hardware, the sill system, materials, and all those engineered details perform at the highest level, in an industry where things don’t usually go that way,” says Eagle Construction Vice President Josh Goldschmidt. “We trust them.”
Unlimited Design Possibilities with A Single Solution
Eagle Construction expertly blends form and function by incorporating opening glass doors into its diverse building projects. Known for their durability and ease of use, these customizable systems seamlessly complement any architectural style, enhancing both the aesthetic appeal and functionality of living spaces. Moreover, their prominent application of NanaWall systems into their home designs—from folding and frameless, to sliding options—allows for limitless customization and versatile environments for modern homeowners. With various sill choices like ADA-compliant and enhanced weather performance options, each installation is aligned to specific architectural demands. Independently tested for performance in air and water resistance, structural integrity, and security, these opening glass doors are built to endure, with a lifespan that surpasses 20,000 open-and-close cycles, an essential feature in contemporary home design.
“The flexibility created by the NanaWall folding door to turn two rooms into three is a key value proposition,” says Josh Goldschmidt. “Eagle is selling more homes this way, it’s worked very well.”
