LivingTheDream

Welcome to Currahee...be inspired!

We hope you feel the difference in the atmosphere here, and that you enjoy the southern hospitality that we are so proud to share with you during your visit. This is Currahee Club, a founding member of the Southern Living Inspired Community family of properties.

W

HILE HERE, YOU ARE PART OF THE Currahee family. After you view the Inspired home, we invite you to visit our Club House for lunch. You may also want to stop at the Sports Campus for a casual drink before touring the rest of our 1,200-acre community.

We want you to experience firsthand what living in Currahee is all about: fun lifestyles, village neighborhoods and easy living, all amidst spectacular scenery!

This home is special...

When we approached Hugh Pitts of Kokopelli Builders about building the first Southern Living Inspired Home in 2014, we knew we were dealing with a true building professional. When touring the home, it is evident by the fine craftsmanship and attention to detail why Hugh and his company were added to our Currahee Builder panel. We were further blessed when Atlanta-based Architectural and Design Company, Simmons, Fouts and Fichtel (SFFAD) agreed to design the home. Liam Simmons and his team turned out

Additionally, the talented Traci Rhoads of TR Interiors, brought a unique flair and creativity to the interior with a finesse and style found only among top designers. It is with total confidence that I encourage you to meet with these professionals if you want to design and build a home here in Currahee.

We have had the pleasure to watch this project come alive over the last six months, and we cannot wait to see your reaction as you experience it for the first time today.

These charming residences include a Currahee membership, and range in size from the low 2,000 sq. ft. to the low 3,000 sq. ft., with prices beginning at $395,000.

Why Currahee?

Currahee is an Indian word meaning “stand alone.” Located here in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountains, we make a singular statement, surrounded by travel-worthy destinations and beautiful scenery. There is so much to see for those who call Toccoa and the Lake Hartwell area their

home. Currahee is only a short hour or so north of Buckhead, Atlanta and an hour south of Greensville SC, providing commuters easy access to their mountain homes. Nearby, scenic vistas, hiking trails, white water rafting and zip lining entice not only local residents, but area tourism. Our private lake park affords access to the 52,000-acre Lake Hartwell, while avid golfers enjoy our on-site, award–winning Jim Fazio golf course, complete with a short course option for those who enjoy less of a challenge.

Currahee Club is about lifestyle… from our community garden to day trips and on-site fun days, activities abound to enjoy Currahee year–round. Please reach out to any of our team members to learn more about us during your visit.

Thank you for your time today, and interest in all things Currahee. Tell your friends about us and have a safe journey home!

Warmly yours, Andrew Ward, Managing Director, Currahee Club

I take pride in constructing a house that feels like home the moment you walk through the door. This feeling is created by having an open floor plan, the use of lots of natural lighting and architectural elements such as the exposed cedar beams that we used in the great room. The wide plank hickory flooring and stone fireplace create a relaxed living space for enjoying this beautiful mountain retreat while the screen porch brings the outside in. ~ Hugh Pitts Kokopelli Builders

“

The windows on the back of the home provide incredible views of nature and the outdoors, so our concept was to reflect and really bring the outdoors in.

This was achieved in the interiors by nods to organic styles and shapes of furniture, natural materials and finishes, peaceful color palettes of soft blues, off white, sage, and earth tones, and fresh, crisp, paint colors.

The artwork throughout also reflects the surroundings and culture of the area to give a resident a real sense of place.

SUMMER 2014 • DESIGN&BUILD MAGAZINE

Kokopelli Builders Where Design Meets Construction HUGH PITTS, OWNER OF KOKOPELLI BUILDERS, has a passion for flawless design and construction, and it shows in every home he builds. It’s this passion for excellence that was the deciding factor in his selection as the builder for the new Currahee Southern Living Inspired Home.

Hugh has a discerning eye for the extraordinary and his intrigue of the elements in the design project is evident. It’s this ability to see beyond the ordinary which sets Kokopelli apart from the competition. Hugh explains that when he accepts any job, it begins with the design. “I work with the architect, detailing the overall conception of the home. His creativity then enhances my vision. Together, we create more than we could individually. The entire construction process is a team effort. We take special pride in creating what the customer envisions and making certain the construction is beyond compare.”

The Construction Process

For Hugh, the number one priority is to be totally involved with the project every step of the way. “I am not a drive-by builder. I’m on the job site making certain everything is going smoothly. I have the big picture in my head from beginning to end and the vision of the completed project, all the way to the interior design and the landscaping.

It’s this vision that draws all the elements together. We are always working to get the WOW effect while at the same time appealing to a broad audience.”

The Key is in the Details

A Kokopelli home is set apart by the details. In today’s market, people are conscious of the value of a home and the value comes from making it distinctive through architectural elements and

floor plans that flow, beautiful views combined with unique materials that bring an “Ah ha! factor!” When you combine this with skilled artisans who know their craft, the result is a quality, custom-built home where the overall picture is exceptional. “A true custom-built home should be comfortable and unique, with wonderful details that fit together without any one part jumping out and standing alone. I love using natural materials in the construction process because they bring warmth and hominess to any house.”

The Kokopelli Southern Living Inspired Home at Currahee is distinguished by his choice of materials.

Quality is found in the details which create a rustic look, but with more refinement. For this particular design, a country motif which fits well into the terrain of the North Georgia Mountains was selected. By incorporating natural stone, wood and a metal roof that integrate into the surroundings, a home of distinction has been created. The open floor plan, gray color palette and exposed beams add a bit of the rustic while retaining sophistication. And yes, there is plenty of outdoor living space to take in the astounding views!

What Makes a House a Kokopelli Home?

Kokopelli Builders offer turnkey construction of your custom home in Currahee. A Kokopelli build immediately feels like home and has such a comfortable feel you don’t want to leave. “We accomplish this in many different ways including lighting, interior design, and the layout. We believe in the importance of bringing as much natural light inside a room as possible. In all our home designs we incorporate an open floor plan, and supplement the existing natural light with well designed interior lighting.”

Our Finished Product

Kokopelli Builders provides an exceptional product at a fair value. As a custom builder, we build a house to be proud of, and one we would be happy to live in ourselves. Our promise to each client is to deliver more home for the money than they ever expected.

Kokopelli Builders is recognized throughout the industry for their achievement in building homes, many of which have a rustic look, much like the Craftsman style home popular years ago. Hugh Pitts has twice been selected as the winner of the “Best of Houze” award for his quality workmanship. The winner is selected on a variety of factors including ratings and reviews by Houzz’s 11 million monthly users. www.kokopellibuilders.com

Architecture and Design, Inc. Together, the team of SFFAD and Kokopelli Builders has created an exquisite mountain escape at Currahee Club, an exceptional mountain and lake community in north Georgia.

Currahee is a founding member of the newly launched Southern Living Inspired Communities, a unique collection of residential developments that exemplifies the Southern Living lifestyle.

SFFAD specializes in residential and light commercial architecture, interiors and landscape design. Each plan is designed to the specific needs of the client with attention to the nature and context of the project’s environment.

As such, the opportunity to design a Southern Living Inspired Home in Currahee is a dream fulfilled.

Our many projects include revitalization of historic properties in and around Atlanta, as well as custom homes across the Southeast from South Carolina to Texas. We take pride in bringing our client’s vision to reality and responding creatively to the constraints of space, time and budget. As a design team, we collaborate to conceive elegant and timeless solutions and constantly strive to build a lasting legacy. We believe our designs, including the Southern Living Inspired Home at Currahee, will endure and continue to delight for years to come.

William “Liam” Simmons, Jr., AIA Liam’s passion for design was influenced by many sources, from the rustic natural beauty of Jungle Gardens created by his paternal greatgrandfather, Edward Avery McIlhenny, to the refined mid-century modern style and taste of his maternal grandfather, Paul Hemenway. He studied architecture at Auburn University under the tutelage of such prominent designers as Bobby McAlpine and David Braly and earned an accredited Bachelor of Architecture degree in 1991. Liam’s passion is in the authenticity and delight that exists uniquely in residential design. He founded his first company, InVintage Designs, Inc., in 2001 which evolved into Simmons | Fouts

“Unlike many designers who impose a rigid style on their project, we strive to give each project the signature of our clients as well as our own.”

“The long-term vision is to bring the Southern Living brand to life at Currahee Club in a unique, differentiated way by offering consumers a complete Southern Living experience, including the option of attending Southern Living branded events, such as on-site classes in cooking, interior design, organic gardening and landscape design. Come be a part of the Southern Living landscape by allowing SFFAD to create your unique dwelling.” | Fichtel Architecture and Design with the addition of Leslie Fouts and Chris Fichtel as partners in 2011. Their projects range from thoughtful one-room additions to sophisticated custom homes. SFFAD has earned a reputation of excellence and the loyal support of clients and contractors alike.

Leslie Fouts Leslie’s fervor for design was founded on the Florida Gulf Coast, in the birthplace of pioneering new-urbanism communities such as Seaside and Rosemary Beach.

Upon earning a degree in Architecture from the prestigious Georgia Institute of Technology School of Architecture in 1996, she worked with one of Atlanta’s leading firms specializing in adaptive reuse, historic preservation and mixed-use development. She honed her experience at the same Atlanta-based international design firm which employed Liam Simmons. There she developed a thorough understanding of project planning and scheduling, sensitivity to critical zoning and building code requirements, technical proficiency in the organization and preparation of construction documents, and a solid commitment to prompt, precise project delivery. Like Liam, Leslie yearned for the personal gratification of working on a residential scale. Liam and Leslie joined forces in 2003 and have since garnered local awards and national recognition for their work together.

Christopher Fichtel As a witness to the explosive growth and progressive redevelopment of his native city of Atlanta, Chris is keenly aware of the power and potential of design. In 2006, he earned a degree in Graphic Design from the Art Institute of Atlanta and his work quickly attracted the attention of multi-national corporations including CocaCola. His employment with a renowned Atlanta graphic design firm, specializing in architectural and ADA compliance signage, brought him into the construction industry; Chris’ innate design sense translated easily from twodimensional graphics into the 3-D environment of actual buildings. He began consulting with Liam and Leslie on residential interiors and landscape projects, receiving in-

stant recognition for his standard of excellence. In 2011, Chris brought his enormous energy and creative talent to the company with the formation of Simmons | Fouts | Fichtel Architecture and Design.

Camp Toccoa

AT CURRAHEE PROJECT Welcome to Camp Toccoa at Currahee! The purpose of this project is to celebrate the lives and contributions of the paratroopers who trained at Camp Toccoa on Currahee Mountain during World War II. Each of the boys who left that mountain as “Toccoa men” and those who have carried on the tradition of Currahee deserve to have their legacy preserved for generations to come. The Camp Toccoa at Currahee Project started as a dream that “should be” done and has now become a project that “must be” completed authentically for the stories of these true American heroes to be told on the hallowed ground where their lives were changed forever.

The 70th Anniversaries of Camp Toccoa and D-Day remind us that future generations deserve the opportunity to visit Camp Toccoa and see, hear and feel what those men learned and took with them as they served their country around the world. We hope that there are others who will join Camp Toccoa at Currahee, a 501C3, non-profit organization, to preserve the legacy of these great American heroes who trained on this mountain. Without each of us committing to this project, the heritage and legacy of Currahee will be lost forever.

The picturesque town of Toccoa is a great complement to Currahee Club. Recently selected as one of the Top 10 Main Streets in the Nation, Toccoa’s revitalized downtown has “something for everyone!” Stop in to see Michelle at CK Morgan for gifts, monogramming or home décor, find Atlanta style fashion at Karly’s 34 North 83 West Clothing Store, enjoy a home cooked meal at BJ’s where the wait staff treats you like family or have a glass of wine and fine dining at Cornerstone Café or a cold glass of ale and your favorite game at the X-Factor Pub. There are many opportunities to find the unique while shopping in Toccoa,but it is also perfect for nature lovers and outdoorsmen.

Hiking Trails include Broad River and Panther Creek each offering a unique hiking experience ideal for novice and/or family groups. The Panther Creek trail captivates hikers with its challenging obstacles and magnificent views as the path follows the creek along steep, rocky bluffs – passing by beautiful cascades, including the 70foot Panther Creek Falls.

There are many trout streams in Stephens County including the Middle Fork Broad River, the North Fork of Broad River, Panther Creek and Toccoa Creek upstream from Toccoa Falls. Black crappie, largemouth bass, striped bass, hybrid bass and channel catfish are also abundant, especially in Lake Hartwell.

One of the southeast’s largest and most popular public recreation lakes, Lake Hartwell is complete with many parks and marinas, encouraging the pursuit of a variety of outdoor recreational experiences. Living at Currahee Club provides access to Lake Hartwell through the privately owned Lake Park.

River. It is located on the campus of Toccoa Falls College, a four-year, fully accredited Christian college. A meandering stream flows through the lower part of the 1,000-acre, wooded campus from the base of the waterfall.

A favorite attraction in Toccoa is Currahee Mountain, the last mountain of the Blue Ridge chain that rises more than 1,700 feet about sea level. According to legend, Cherokee Native Americans named the mountain Currahee (quu-wa-hi, meaning “stands alone”). On clear days, the peak’s 1,735-foot summit is visible for many miles and is a prominent landmark to the southeast of Georgia’s Blue Ridge Mountain crest.

The historic Southern Crescent, now known officially as the Amtrak Crescent, runs twice daily between New York City and New Orleans with stops that include Toccoa, Gainesville and Atlanta ... an amenity that adds to the uniqueness of our beautiful city.

The Toccoa Symphony performs annual concerts throughout the year in Stephens County. For theater lovers, the Toccoa Stephens County Community Theatre presents several theatrical productions each year at the Schaefer Center for the Performing Arts. During the summer months the Ida Cox Music Series brings a variety of music genres to the outdoor stage located on Doyle Street.

The Currahee Military Museum receives visitors from around the world. Located in the historic train depot the museum features a massive exhibit of 506 Easy Company.

This World War II paratrooper division was popularized

by Stephen Ambrose’s book “Band of Brothers,” the HBO Miniseries “Band of Brothers,” and the blockbuster movie “Saving Private Ryan.” The depot has been restored to its pre-1940′s appearance and is now home to the Chamber of Commerce, local Welcome Center, and Stephens County Historical Society Museum.

“Spend some time with us and find out why we think our city is one of the greatest places to live in the world.”

Doyle Street (Toccoa’s Main Street) provides many opportunities to shop, play, and dine while in downtown Toccoa and the historic courthouse, built in 1907 is a great visual anchor to the newly renovated downtown district.

Toccoa’s proximity to the county’s natural resources makes it easy to find plenty of adventure to engage your “wild side” from zip lining to kayaking and everything in-between. Part of the Chattahoochee National Forest and the Chattooga River Range is located in Stephens County, with much of it closely accessible from the Currahee Club.
