Teardown Homes

Since 1964, the custom Davidson home builders at E.S. Johnson have crafted luxurious residences throughout our local community. However, over 60 years of enjoyment and prosperity have left little opportunity for new homes.
 
A teardown home might be the way to go!
 
Exploring a teardown option allows for fresh beginnings in established areas, ensuring the continuation of custom, elegant living spaces by E.S. Johnson Builders.
 

“The land under many of these homes is now worth more than the home itself, giving to a new type of waterfront lot, the teardown or high-end remodeling project.”

– Eric Johnson

What Our Clients Say

We absolutely love our house! E.S. Johnson Builders brings the highest quality fit and finish to a custom home - plus they were fun and flexible to work with throughout the entire process. Thank you for an incredible finished product we now call home!
Shawn King
ES Johnson Builders built our Davidson, NC. There are many, many things we love about our home, but what really stands out is the ES Johnson Builders signature style - "Southern Casual Elegance"! The attention to detail throughout the home is simply wonderful. Thank you, ES Johnson Team!
Amy Cook
After interviewing several custom builders, we spoke with Eric Johnson and instantly connected with him on our appreciation of coastal design. As a design/builder, E.S. Johnson made the entire process seamless from design, through architectural planning, through the build. Eric quoted us one price for our home (which included allowances) and delivered the agreed product at that price. We couldn't be happier with our house.
Ron Sutek
We walked out of the first meeting with Eric knowing this was exactly who we would be building with. Eric has a passion for building homes, great style, and an impressive amount of knowledge of everything in between. He knew our budget, got to quickly understand our style, and built us the perfect coastal home with all the high-end finishes we could have ever expected. ​

2.5 years later we sold our home in under a week, and are finalizing plans to build with Eric again. We are excited to have Eric get creative on our custom farmhouse and look forward to working with his team again.
Courtney Bursich
When my husband and I decided to make our dream of building a modern farmhouse a reality, we started researching custom builders in the area. There were many options out there, but ES Johnson stood out as our favorite! From the initial design meeting until the last walk through, we were taken care of. Eric's entire team was always there to help. We have lived in our ES Johnson home for 2.5 years now and we absolutely love it! We feel very proud of our home, especially when friends and family say how beautiful it turned out and that the quality shines through.
