Bring Life Outside

Outdoor Spaces

Monteagle and Sewanee residents enjoy a dynamic mountain landscape that is a vital part of why calling this place home is so special. Create the ideal outdoor spaces for your family’s treasured routines, whether they include entertaining, sports, children’s play, swimming, gardening or outdoor recreation. A good outdoor space should feel like an extension of your home’s indoor environment and blend seamlessly into the singular landscape that attracted you to the property in the first place. No matter the terrain, topography or your intended use, we are excited to work with you on crafting an ideal outdoor living environment that gives you year-round enjoyment of our magnificent Cumberland Plateau.
