Luxury Residences in Charlotte's Premier Private Community

QUICK ANSWER

What does it cost to build a custom home in The Sanctuary?

A custom home in The Sanctuary runs roughly $400-$725+ per heated square foot for construction in 2026, excluding the homesite, difficult-lot site work, pools and landscape. Expect 14-24 months from design through move-in. Peters Custom Homes builds 8-10 residences a year, The Sanctuary among them, so pricing is quoted open-book against an itemised budget rather than a single square-foot figure.

Frequently Asked Questions

What defines The Sanctuary as a luxury community?

The Sanctuary is a premier gated community in south Charlotte featuring estate lots, a private clubhouse, and architectural review standards that maintain exceptional quality. Homes in The Sanctuary typically range from 5,000–10,000+ SF on lots of 1+ acres.

How do I begin the process of building with Peters Custom Homes?

Every engagement begins with a private consultation where we learn about your family's vision, timeline, and goals. From there, we guide you through homesite evaluation, architect selection, design development, and the full scope of pre-construction planning. We accept a limited number of new engagements each year, so we encourage interested families to reach out early to discuss availability.

What sets a Peters Custom Home apart after move-in?

The difference reveals itself in the details you experience daily—doors that close with a whisper, natural light that shifts beautifully through carefully placed windows, materials that age gracefully, and mechanical systems that perform silently and efficiently. Our families consistently tell us that the quality of daily life in their home exceeds even their highest expectations, and that the residence continues to surprise and delight years after completion.
