Martin Alloy and Stanley Halle created Stanley Martin in 1966 in the Maryland suburbs outside of Washington, D.C. Early on, we began innovating with fresh new designs and quickly expanded our portfolio of homes to include various sizes and townhomes as well. Our innovative designs, commitment to quality and strong customer service quickly led to significant growth.

Stanley Martin expanded into Northern Virginia in 1971, Charlottesville, VA in 2013 and both Richmond, VA and Raleigh, NC in 2014. In 2017, Stanley Martin joined the Daiwa House Group, which provided the opportunity to expand into Atlanta, GA and Charleston, SC in 2018 and again in 2020 into Columbia, SC and Charlotte, NC among other metro areas on the east coast. We are proud of our 50+ years of success and look forward to helping homebuyers find their dream home every day.
