Thanks to WNC Magazine for highlighting a long time favorite retro lodge, Skyline Lodge of the Highlands, and its recent remodel. The original 1930’s hotel was designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright and then further developed in the 1960’s.

“The original owner had intended the project as a personal getaway for family and friends, she explains, but construction was halted shortly after it began in the 1930s due to his death. The property then sat unfinished for decades until it was finally completed in the 1960s by a new developer and architect. A rectangular swimming pool was a focus of the then-seasonal lodge, as dozens of rooms at the mountain-top resort were designed for views of both the pool and the distant peaks. Beams of California redwood were erected in the dining room, along with the massive granite fireplaces that now bookend the bar and lounge seating.” Enjoy the full article here.

Cork floors are rather unique and people either love them or hate them it seems. Kelly and I both chose to put in cork flooring on the basement level of our midcentury homes for the warmth, acoustics and the look. Our friends at Atomic Ranch Magazine just published this article to give you more information on this rare flooring type. Go Here for the full article. Cheers!

Yeah! We are very happy for our sellers who just closed their townhome. They love Haw Creek, but wanted to return to the privacy and outdoor space of a single family home in the same area. Working together we were able to coordinate both buying and selling their homes in their favorite area of town. Congrats to them. Cheers!
