The Orchard House site was selected primarily for the mountain view and it's convenient location to shopping, schools and business'. The owners have studied design, construction, art, music and horticulture and enjoy these interest. The seller especially likes new technology, engineering and machinery. The kitchen, master bedroom, library and outdoor living areas enjoy a beautiful view of the sunrise while the sun porch, dining and living space have a fabulous view of sunset! The building materials were selected for their aesthetic quality, durability, low maintenance and subtle colors which blend with the setting.

The house is constructed of approx 1 million pounds of concrete and exterior walls are EIFS (Exterior Insulation and Finish System). The foyer floors are Italian Granite and the guest bath contains Italian tile. The kitchen and master bath floors are polished porcelain from Tennessee.
