Secluded Private Retreat Near DC Shepherdstown A comfortable and ideal retreat near enough to DC for work or play. Nestled in the shenandoah valley, this private retreat promises a relaxed Sylvan setting on 17-secluded acres. But its other 'promise' is its amazing proximity to endless urbane and out-of-doors invitations for pleasure and fun. “Shepherds cottage” is a rambling five-bedroom affair on park-like grounds with a separate guest house overlooking the pool, a great room with service bar, an owners's suite, a library, a stainless and granite kitchen and butler’s pantry, fireplaces, and lofts. Outside there’s a barn, a warehouse with a pool and exercise room, a bocce court, a paintball field with a fort, other out buildings, and a windmill that creaks in the wind. Designated an apiary, there’s honey and very low taxes.

FEATURED PROPERTY NORTH CAROLINA
SAGEE MANOR Highlands, North Carolina
B
By Nicole Lauber | Photographs Sarah Valentine
“Before you can truly appreciate Sagee Manor, you have to know about Highlands, North Carolina, where the property is located,” says Bob Fisher, current owner of the Sagee Manor. “Highlands is like the watering hole in the African Savannah in that it has attracted sophisticated, successful people from all over the South for generations, and now people beyond the South are discovering it.” Recently rated by Barron’s as one of the best second home communities, Highlands is surrounded by National Forest with summer temperatures averaging in the mid-70s. Bob believes that the quality of life is what makes Highlands so extraordinary. “People come here to seek respite in a stressful world,” he says. “We have a great climate, a clean environment, friendly people, and sophisticated amenities in a laidback atmosphere. It really is a remarkable place.” Perched atop a mountain conveniently located inside the Town of Highlands is Sagee Manor, a true work of art when it comes to architecture, interior design, craftsmanship and landscaping. “When my wife and I bought this incredible property in 1999, we wanted to do the right thing with it,” Bob says. “We wanted to create something of permanence, something that would be recognized nationally and internationally for its extreme high quality of design and craft, and something that would last for generations.” Bob and his wife did just that. The rustic, Tudor-style estate sits on a portion of the 50 pristine acres of woodlands, comprised of its own mountain, with 360-degree vistas. With seven bedrooms, eight full baths, and five half baths, the estate is perfect for hosting guests, especially with three outdoor patios. The grounds of the Sagee Manor are also extremely impressive, with 13 gardens around the house, several designed by famed English designer, Rosemary Verey. “Between the quality of the location in Highlands, of the site atop an in-town mountain, of the design of the Manor and gardens, of the millwork from local artisans, the result of our and our team’s efforts is unmatched in the modern era,” Bob says. Sagee Manor is currently listed at $17.9 million for the Manor, and 22 acres with additional acreage are available as well.

PUBLISHER’S LETTER Dear Readers, In honor of the summer recreational season, we have dedicated a seven-page spread to WATERFRONT PROPERTIES. We have included such popular areas as Sarasota, Fort Lauderdale, and Sanibel Island in Florida, as well as The Catskill Mountains in New York, and Smith Mountain Lake in Virginia. The homes featured in this editorial not only have beautiful waterfront views and access, but each of them has their own unique attraction separate from the water. Probably my favorite feature in this issue is, A RUNWAY IN YOUR BACKYARD on pages 38–42. Elite communities for pilots and private plane enthusiasts are becoming more popular. Most of the owners’ lifestyles center around traveling via airplane versus automobile. Literally, in their backyards are runways and hangars for their private planes. We showcase just a few of these in Alpine, Wyoming; Banner Elk, North Carolina and Rabun County, Georgia. Our FEATURED PROPERTY in North Carolina is Sagee Manor in Highlands,

ASHEVILLE Named the Happiest City in the U.S. by author Eric Weiner and Self Magazine, Asheville, North Carolina is at the top of the list of places to live and visit in the United States. Asheville’s diversity, laidback lifestyle and natural beauty make it a revered destination. The Blue Ridge Mountains surround downtown where you can visit some of the finest galleries, restaurants and music venues found anywhere, yet a mere 5-minute drive will take you deep into the woods. One of the most enticing things about Asheville is its weather. Asheville has four distinct seasons but without 22

the temperature and humidity extremes found elsewhere. Summertime average highs are in the 80s, and daytime winter temperatures are in the low 30s. The 40 inches of annual precipitation keeps the area lush and vegetation diverse, helping Asheville to keep its classification as one of the most ecologically diverse regions in the world. “In no other place do so many perspectives meet and flourish under the backdrop of these beautiful mountains. The mountains provide the perfect assortment of natural resources for residents to live active and healthy lifestyles among an inspiring artist community,” says Neal Hanks, President of Beverly-Hanks & Associates Realtors. www.duPontREGISTRY.com

THE CAROLINAS Although the Asheville area offers an array of outdoor activities like fly-fishing, hiking, kayaking, rafting and cycling along the Blue Ridge Parkway, it is not just for the outdoorsy. The area boasts a thriving arts community and a vibrant downtown that embraces entrepreneurship, cultivated eateries and a variety of shopping options, all unlike anywhere else. “There’s an energy here that simply can’t be described on paper,” says Hanks. “Those who want to live in the heart of art and activity and culture and convenience find that Asheville delivers in a way that is uniquely its own.”
WINSTON-SALEM “Winston-Salem is the center of the East Coast, which attracts northerners and southerners,” says John-mark Mitchell, Principal Broker with eXp Realty of the Carolinas. “We have northerners who want southern hospitality without going too far south, and we have southerners who want the cooler weather of the north without the extremes.” Winston-Salem was the first city in the United States to have an arts council, which led to the nickname “City of the Arts”. Multiple galleries and artisan workshops, as well as the University of North Carolina School of the Arts, are located in Winston-Salem, and the city hosts many theater and film festivals throughout the year. Many notable artists call Winston-Salem home, like Jon Kuhn, a glasswork artist whose artwork has been featured in the Smithsonian, the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and the permanent collection in the White House. In addition to notable things about the area, Wake Forest University, N.C. Baptist School of Medicine and Forsyth Hospital, all located in Winston-Salem, offer some of the best hospitals in America. Old Salem is a major tourist attraction, and Winston-Salem’s sweetest claim to fame is that it’s home to Krispy Kreme doughnuts. One property in the area that John-mark is currently representing is NASCAR Hall of Famer Junior Johnson’s 150-acre ranch estate. “Junior’s estate could continue to function as a ranch, or it could be turned into a winery,” John-mark says. “It’s a very unique property and one of the most outstanding homes I’ve ever seen.” The best part about Winston-Salem, John-mark notes, is the feeling of community in WinstonSalem. “I’ve traveled a great deal, but nothing quite compares with the residents of WinstonSalem, the opportunities people have here, and the amount of support our community gets.”

THE CAROLINAS HATTERAS ISLAND With over 70 miles of white sandy beaches—the beautiful blue Atlantic Ocean to the east and the calm and peaceful Pamlico Sound to the west—Hatteras Island is surrounded by nature and beauty. The pristine beauty, recreational opportunities and relaxed atmosphere are what attract year-round residents to this isolated paradise. “They get a taste of all four seasons, but the weather is gorgeous nearly all year long,” says Scott Leggat of Outer Beaches Realty. Currently, there are about 4,000 permanent, yearround residents living on Hatteras Island. Hatteras Island is the ultimate destination for a watersports enthusiast or a world-class fisherman. You can always find someone surfing, kite boarding, windsurfing, standup paddle boarding, kayaking or just hanging out by the beach, depending on the conditions.
The residents of this quaint little community are independent yet tight-knit and willing to help each other out in the face of inclement weather or other hardships. Scott explains, “We have villages as opposed to towns or cities. Each village has something different or unique to offer its residents and guests.” With the island’s unique, laid-back style of living and solid community, it’s not hard to understand why people love Hatteras Island. There are many beaches along the east coast but Hatteras Island’s pure, uncrowded and undisturbed beaches are a hidden gem in this busy, overcrowded and hectic world. Come and unwind with us while you enjoy the beauty that is Hatteras Island.

you want or need to tune in,” says Anne Hartley, co-owner and developer with husband Al.
One of the Carolina’s most hidden gems is Roanoke Reserve. A naturally preserved 35-acre wooded enclave that surrounds a deep-water cove with 2,850-feet of shoreline on the main lake, Roanoke Reserve is located on Lake Gaston near the North Carolina-Virginia border. First-time buyers of Reserve property have the advantage of choosing both the perfect spot among several options—more space and natural privacy, a smaller lot, or being part of a closer-knit community—and tailoring their home design and living space to be just right. Living on the Reserve is simplified by personalized concierge and living assistance programs. The whole custom approach makes it perfect as a favorite escape destination or year-round home base—with easy, carefree living for residents at all phases of life, their extended family, and friends.
Roanoke Reserve is two hours away from Williamsburg and Jamestown and an easy drive south to the Raleigh-DurhamChapel Hill area or north to Richmond and DC. Rosemont Vineyards and Winery is only a 15-minute drive from the Reserve. “We take great pride in making the Reserve a reality and always enjoy the opportunity to personally introduce this special place to newcomers,” says Hartley.
“The authentic rural, friendly and more relaxed way of life reflected in the communities around the lake, close to the Reserve, take you back to simpler times. Yet, it’s an easy drive or just a mouse click to the rest of the world when
Roanoke Reserve is ideal for those seeking upscale waterfront living tuned to their personal lifestyle and stage in life —and value the eco-friendly principles of preservation, appreciation for nature and environmental compatibility.
www.duPontREGISTRY.com
The natural beauty, mixed forest, inspiring views of water and nature, and slightly buffered waterfront setting make the Reserve one-of-a-kind; not to mention the weather is most favorable with mild temperatures and a distinct change of seasons. In addition to the full spectrum of water-based activities, golf courses, a day spa, retro country stores, quaint restaurants, and shopping are all nearby.

ou’ve just watched the sunrise over the waterfront. The water is like glass, not even rippling. It’s calm, serene and soothing. This peaceful relationship with nature in such a secluded setting is like no other moment you have ever experienced. The next day you’re in a high-speed boat, making waves in yesterday’s glass-like pool. Now the waterfront is adventurous, daring and action-packed. Waterfront living is a getaway, whether you’re seeking tranquility or a liveliness outside your daily routine. Many of the waterfront properties featured in this issue are short drives to neighboring cities. That way, you can have the best of both worlds.
SARASOTA
A FLORIDIAN’S SANCTUARY “Some days you celebrate and the water celebrates with you. Other days when you need comfort, the water is rhythmic and reassuring. There is something about it that is a sanctuary,” says Candy Swick, realtor and owner of Candy Swick & Company in Sarasota. Living on Sarasota waterfront offers an endless spectrum of lifestyle and recreational possibilities. Enjoy fishing, sailing or swimming. Living in Florida also presents the benefit of snorkeling and observing tropical life under the sea as well as dolphin and manatee watching. After gazing at one of Florida’s magnificent sunsets, head into downtown Sarasota, rich in culture and art. Enjoy a wonderful meal and then a night at the theatre. “Life on the Sarasota waterfront is constantly changing. It’s never the same, never ho-hum. t’s always electric,” says Swick. It is currently the perfect time to buy in the Sarasota waterfront market. While interest rates are low, market inventory still has good values and interested buyers still have plenty of choices.

A premiere property on Sarasota’s market is at Vista Bay Point, luxury condominiums at the entrance of Golden Gate Point that exude prestige and architectural style. Drive into your twocar garage and take the private elevator right to your front door. This 3,300-square-foot, three bedroom, three bath residence offers a 180degree view of the bay front, the perfect place to watch Florida’s beautiful sunrises and sunsets. In addition to the pool, spa, athletic center and state-of-the-art theatre room, Vista Bay Point is within walking distance from all of the shopping, restaurants and theatres that downtown Sarasota offers.
CATSKILL MOUNTAINS A WATERFRONT RETREAT UNLIKE ANY OTHER
Ninety minutes from Manhattan, north Jersey and Connecticut is a waterfront living experience unlike any other. Escape the city and, upon arrival, be greeted with crisp, clean mountain air. Look out your window at an enticing view of the lakes. The water is pristine and clear. Neighboring eagles soar over the water as they fish. The 20-acre equestrian peninsula compound within the gated Chapin Estates embodies refined rustic elegance. The Timberline Lodge Estate serves as a therapeutic waterfront retreat for many of its residents and guarantees an oldtime privacy experience. Feel like you stepped back in time to an Adirondack Great Camp or a lodge in the Great Northwest with all of the modern conveniences. “Nothing else exists like this so close to the city,” says Steve Dubrovsky, developer of The Chapin Estates.

Fall weather in the Catskill Mountain area is classic, and the trees are emblazoned in gold, red and orange leaves. Winter offers adequate snow fall for sports like skiing and snowboarding on nearby slopes. The spring is moderate with cool breezes; perfect weather for hiking on one of the area’s many trails. In the summer, the days are warm and nights are cool. Boating and water sports are available on the Timberline Lodge Estate’s bordering lakes.

WATERFRONT PROPERTIES FORT LAUDERDALE VENICE OF AMERICA
Fort Lauderdale enjoys the title “Venice of America” because of its winding network of canals and waterways throughout the city, but with a decidedly cosmopolitan crowd, active nightlife, and an abundance of world-class restaurants, the comparison is all too appropriate. Whether it’s enjoying al fresco dining on Las Olas Boulevard or a night on the town to the Center for Performing Arts, Fort Lauderdale offers big city amenities situated against a backdrop of 23 miles of tropical, sugar-sand beaches and sunshine. As Julie Jones, Broker/Associate at Premier Estate Properties
explains: “Residents can enjoy oceanfront living either in a luxury condominium with vast ocean views or the intimacy of a private beachfront estate. The possibilities for a tropical lifestyle in Fort Lauderdale are multi-faceted!” As a tropical vacation destination with a rich and diversified center of industry, Fort Lauderdale is a city where one can work and play. A huge hub for international commerce, the city offers three local airports, a bustling seaport and businesses that call its downtown “home.” As more businesses relocate here, Fort Lauderdale is proving to be an ideal location for executives and their families to live in and enjoy. Distinct luxury waterfront residences, a sophisticated city, and pristine beaches make Fort Lauderdale a natural choice to achieve an unparalleled Florida lifestyle.

SMITH MOUNTAIN LAKE A JEWEL ON THE LAKE
Known as a premier vacation destination and perfect spot for relocation, Smith Mountain Lake is nestled in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Central Virginia. Located a few hours from Washington, D.C. it is a picturesque rural landscape of mountains and lake. Dubbed the “Jewel of the Blue Ridge,” the area is home to families, business moguls, and retirees, attracted by both its beauty and accessibility. Diversity of home styles and a wide array of cultural offerings give Smith Mountain Lake a decidedly European-like flair. In fact, many of the area’s year round residents hail from around the world. “People know that you get great value and high quality of life here,” says Leslie Becker, broker/realtor at Smith Mountain Lake Properties and owner of Premier Vacation Rentals at Smith Mountain Lake. A low-key yet active lifestyle is one of the area’s main draws. Popular recreational offerings include signature golf courses, www.duPontREGISTRY.com
equestrian centers, and sailing regattas. “You can go full-throttle all year long with any activity you want,” says Becker. Blessed with a 22,000-acre lake and 500-miles of shoreline, Smith Mountain Lake provides ample opportunities to purchase the perfect waterfront home to suit any lifestyle – whether it’s a luxury condo, vacation retreat, or year-round home. A “controlled” deep water lake, Smith Mountain Lake never loses more than three-feet of water, which protects the shoreline and beaches. “Savvy homebuyers know this fact,” Becker says. “It is one of the reasons people from around the world buy lakefront homes here.” A beautiful example of the area’s waterfront properties can be found at the Love Stone Inn, a $995,000 or turn key $1,250,000 French country lakefront estate with breathtaking views of the mountain and lake. Its Peaks of Otter stone exterior is a rare find on the lake. Additional features of the over five-acre property include a private dock and terraced beachfront as well as a separate guest cottage.

WATERFRONT PROPERTIES SANIBEL ISLAND
A NATURAL BEAUTY
Warm Gulf waters, uncrowded beaches, and an unspoiled landscape are a few of the reasons that Sanibel Island is the perfect spot to purchase a waterfront home. Sanibel Island’s east-west orientation makes it one of the most unique barrier islands in the world. Its fifteen-miles of pristine white-sand beaches and 250 kinds of sea shells add to its worldwide allure. Located minutes west of Fort Myers on Florida’s Gulf Coast, Sanibel Island is easily accessible to the mainland, yet its commitment to conservation makes it feel truly special. The island’s renowned Ding Darling Nature Preserve is home to more than 300 species of birds, 50 species of reptiles and amphibians, and over 30 types of mammals. “Sixty-five percent of the island is protected conservation land or wildlife refuge,” says Jim Hall, managing partner with VIP Realty Group in Sanibel, Florida.
Strict building regulations help preserve Sanibel Island’s unique look and feel. You won’t find any stop lights, chain restaurants, or high rises here. “The island is about ninety-percent built out,” Hall says. “There is very little development left.” Unique shops, great restaurants, and close-knit community atmosphere are just a few of the reasons that people are attracted to Sanibel Island. A laid back lifestyle coupled with a plethora of recreational activities make for a great quality of life. Sanibel Island’s extensive bike trail system and new multi-million dollar recreational facility provide fun ways to enjoy it. “Great values and decreasing inventory make it the perfect time to buy a waterfront home on Sanibel Island,” notes Hall. One of Sanibel Island’s premier waterfront homes is on Joewood Drive in the gated Gulf Ridge subdivision. The $2.775-million Old Florida style gulf-front home has breathtaking gulf views and an extensive list of amenities. The two-acre property has an attached guest house as well as 100-feet of gulf-front footage and a sand beach.

NEW ENGLAND BE SECLUDED YET NOT ISOLATED By Hannah Mobarekeh “I have lived in a lot of different places and what brought me back to New Hampshire was the four distinct seasons,” says Rob Tappen, associate broker at the Bean Group. As a New England native, Tappen is very familiar with the region, and all of the luxuries that make it feel like home. The city of Sunapee in Northwest New Hampshire is most known for its namesake lake that flanks the right side of the city. Come in the summer, and the lake is alive with water skiers, boaters and swimmers. Stately houses set upon the lake get a private viewing of all these summer activities. Just off the lake you can enjoy activities such as golfing, hiking, art festivals and summer theater. Summer is not the only active season in New England. Come wintertime, the skiers hit the slopes, flocking to Mount Sunapee or Ragged Mountain.
