Reynolds Blue Ridge

Your new cottage home has been carefully crafted in harmony with its beautiful natural surroundings. Each cottage was thoughtfully placed to feel as if it has risen from the landscape. And each residence is oriented to take maximum advantage of specific views. Immediately, you’ll sense an enduring, timeless quality to your home that makes it seem like it has always been there.

The landscape design philosophy is to utilize vegetation that occurs naturally on the site. Where additions are desirable, the landscape palette will rely upon indigenous species that occur naturally within the region. These sensitive design principles carry on throughout the neighborhood where you’ll find sustainable practices such as rainwater cisterns and the preservation of trees. It’s easy to see that all the building efforts are guided by a desire to preserve the land, enhance the views, and not disturb the environment.

Porch Living

The cottages are situated to encourage meaningful connections with both nature and neighbors. Designed to take advantage of all four seasons of great North Carolina weather, this is porch living at its best. After a day of exploring the winding walking trails at Dugger Valley Trail, grab that glass of iced-tea and prop your feet up on your covered back porch while rocking the minutes away watching the sun slip over the horizon. With each address boasting its own unique identity and only 10 cottage homes, you’ll experience an intimate neighborhood feel. And the community continues as you gather with your neighbors at the adjacent Watson Park and the nearby Village Center to enjoy fun, year-round amenities, community organized programs, and events.

With the use of natural materials, the cottage homes have a rugged style that advances their sense of stability by also fitting comfortably into this homestead. The large roughhewn wooden timbers, bark siding, random-sized free-stacked stone, and intricate wrought-iron hardware look like they were harvested from the land itself. These natural materials, shaped and placed by local craftsmen, are a testimony to the beauty and simplicity of indigenous architecture.

You’ll appreciate how this natural form follows function as you experience a home designed for true outdoor living. Extend your idea of living and go beyond the walls with an outdoor kitchen, fireplace, and spacious covered living porches.
