Featured on HGTV, the New York Times and the Wall Street Journal, this architectural and engineering masterpiece is unique in a spectacular country club community of homes. Winner of the prestigious 2004 Grand Aurora Award this Red Oak Lodge features breathtaking views, detailed craftsmanship, and rustic elegance with a contemporary flair. At 4100 feet elevation, this home is positioned to perfectly capture sweeping, panoramic, uninterrupted year round long range views. High ceilings and 6 foot high windows throughout the home create an open environment and lodge appeal. The home features Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, 3 fireplaces, granite counter tops throughout, and a large master suite with a whirlpool tub. Award winning golf and a private mountain top runway are just a few of the community amenities. The home has been tastefully and fully furnished and will sell with these items included. For a limited time a brand new 2008 BMW X3 will be included with the purchase of this home.
An apt description of the home is summarized by Mountain Homes magazine issued fall 2003.
“Perhaps the most striking of these is a home built by the developer (about 50 percent of the community’s homes are designed and built by owners), called The Red Oak Lodge. Its breathtaking reach out into the air and into views of distant mountains is accomplished by a technique at least roughly akin to that used for the Linn Cove Viaduct – the section of the Blue Ridge Parkway around Grandfather Mountain, completed in 1987. The modern, two-level homes are built with respect to the vegetation and rock outcroppings below, as the homes share a suspended-in-air feeling with the viaduct as it curls unobtrusively around Grandfather Mountain.”
