About Us

Legacy Development Company

Legacy Development Company LLC was started in 1998 by custom home builder, Preston Poythress. After a 21 year career with United Parcel Service, Preston took the opportunity to retire early and to pursue his dream of being a Custom Home Builder.

Preston grew up in Raleigh and has resided in Wake County all his life. He presently lives in Raleigh with his wife, Joan, and three sons, Dylan, Austin, and Mason.

He is proud that he has assisted in the development of fine neighborhoods in Raleigh and surrounding areas, including our newest homes at Sunset Manor.

Attention to Detail

Preston’s devotion to detail inside and out is evident with the many homeowner walk-thru’s throughout the construction process. No detail is too small or insignificant. Preston’s goal is to design and build a home specifically for his clients. Preston’s ability to communicate and work closely with his clients makes building their new home the joy it should be.
