Living the Dream
Friday, November 1st, 2024
Welcome to the epitome of East Tennessee luxury—where mountain views, lakeside beauty, and refined design come together in a custom-built home by McCamy Construction. Nestled in the Rarity Bay golf course community, this month’s featured home was built for a couple relocating from Illinois to right outside of Knoxville, Tennessee. Seeking a seamless blend of style, comfort and the great outdoors, they quickly discovered that McCamy Construction was the perfect fit to bring their home to life.
All About Outdoors
At the heart of this home is a remarkable screened-in porch that’s more than just an outdoor space—it’s a retreat. Complete with a cozy stone fireplace, mounted TV, and ample seating, this porch perfectly combines warmth and functionality. The homeowners affectionately joke, “We have this really awesome porch and there’s a house attached to it!” They practically live outside, savoring fresh air and incredible views year-round, with their two beloved dogs enjoying the outdoor space as much as they do.
Luxurious Living
McCamy’s attention to detail shines throughout the home with standout features that bring luxury into their everyday life. Convenience meets luxury in the laundry room, which is cleverly connected to the primary closet. This thoughtful layout makes daily routines easier and maximizes functionality with plenty of cabinet storage and custom closet solutions.
Living in a golf course community calls for easy access to a golf cart. A dedicated golf cart garage door makes it easy to enjoy the amenities of Rarity Bay. Perfect for a home where indoor-outdoor living is central, the mudroom bench with built-in storage provides a spot to drop off shoes, bags, and other essentials.
From the high ceilings adorned with wood beams to the high-end lighting, every corner of this home reflects a commitment to quality and craftsmanship, thoughtfully selected with the help of McCamy’s interior designer. “Ashley was incredible. Her attention to detail was amazing, as was her organization. She truly listened to what we were envisioning, guiding us in helping make decisions. She didn’t force ideas on us, but gave us options and realistic solutions to make our vision come to life.”
A Positive Building Experience
The clients were thrilled with their experience working with McCamy Construction while they remained in Chicago during their building process. “They set us up on the BuilderTrend app which served as our lifeline to see the house in various stages. That is so important when you are out of state during a build. We could see the house at all stages, ask questions if we saw something that didn’t seem quite right or that we didn’t understand. It was like daycare for our home build!”
As they settle into their new community, these homeowners are embracing the East Tennessee lifestyle to the fullest, especially through their beloved outdoor spaces. Their McCamy-built home is more than just a residence—it’s a sanctuary for relaxation, entertainment, and everyday joy.
They agreed that the best part of working with McCamy was the ease during the process.”And how responsive, honest and friendly the team was. They are calm, which can help ease a lot of anxiety during a build,” the homeowner reflected.
If you’re in the market to build your forever home in East Tennessee or you know someone who is interested in moving to the area, these clients can’t recommend McCamy enough! “Especially if you are moving from another state and not there during the entire build. You need someone you can trust that communicates well during your build,” they shared.
