McGuinn Hybrid Homes began in the Midlands and surrounding areas in 1984. Since that time the company has gone from a custom builder to a builder who focuses on community living. At McGuinn you will find a variety of options when choosing finishes for your home. Granite countertops come standard in every home and they have since added quartz countertops to their selections. Every home from their level one plans have basic standard features that consumers have come to expect. Brick or stone come standard around the garage. In the luxury production series the fronts of the homes have 80% masonry finishes. McGuinn specializes in starter homes for the first time home buyer, has smaller single story plans for those who are downsizing, and selections are available for the lateral mover. They call their energy efficient plan Hybrid. Hybrid is a combination of more than one thing combined: the company provides energy efficient features with a prewire for a technology package in every home.

McGuinn has communities in both Southeast Columbia, Northeast Columbia, and Blythewood areas. Burnside Farms and Hampton Forest are sold out of new homes but often have great resale opportunities for the first time home buyers. They are located off Garners Ferry in Southeast Columbia near Ft. Jackson, Shaw Airforce Base, and McIntyre. Alden Glen is located in Northeast Columbia and Willow Commons is in Blythewood
