Contemporary mountain home with vintage-rustic details

This private residence is situated at the Cliffs at Mountain Park at the edge of the Blue Ridge Mountains, nearby Greenville, South Carolina. The mountain home has been designed by architecture studio Johnston Design Group in collaboration with interior designer Linda McDougald Design. The design of this refined 5,127 square foot, four bedroom and four and one-half bath mountain home is rooted in its natural surroundings. Boasting a color palette of subtle earthy grays and browns, the home is filled with natural textures balanced with sophisticated finishes and fixtures.

The open floorplan ensures visibility throughout the home, preserving the fantastic views from all angles. Furnishings are of clean lines with comfortable, textured fabrics. Contemporary accents are paired with vintage and rustic accessories. Interior materials include rustic oak floors, natural stone, concrete and wood countertops, full North Carolina Granite Fieldstone fireplace and select walls, river rock flooring and accents in the master bathroom and natural stone and ceramic tiles. The exterior facade is cladded with a cedar shake siding and natural stone veneer with cedar heavy timber detailing and cedar shake roof. The outdoor terrace features a full stone fireplace and built-in grill area.

To achieve the LEED for Homes Silver rating, the home includes such green features as solar thermal water heating, solar shading, low-e clad windows, Energy Star appliances, and native plant and wildlife habitat.
