Country Club Style

Brier Creek
Raleigh

 The project focused on designing a formal, yet relaxing, entertainment space. We started by creating a grand entrance to the backyard, with a wall made of Old Charleston natural stone, capped with Tennessee stone, and adorned with a wrought-iron archway gate. In Old North State’s tradition of paying special attention to details pertinent to each individual project, we took time to handpick the brown stones in the wall to give the homeowners the color effect that they found most interesting. The spacious cabana that encompasses the new outdoor kitchen and dining area is steps away from the house’s new deck and features more two-inch thick natural Tennessee stone as a unique countertop with a custom waterfall edge. Other special details, such as the tongue-and-groove ceiling, the modern chandelier, the wall fans, a TV that rises from the cabinet, surround sound, and the eight-foot-tall focal-point water feature and privacy wall customize the space specifically for this homeowner’s wishes and needs. A charming adjoining bridge installed to the right of the cabana provides a safe route to cross over a dry creek bed to access additional patio entertainment space. On the left side of the cabana, a pergola shades a large daybed swing to create another entertaining vignette.
