CONNELLY SPRINGS country home

Location: Connelly Springs, NC

Set on a sprawling 27-acre parcel in the tranquil countryside of Connelly Springs, North Carolina, this residence was designed as a timeless home that feels as though it has always been a part of the land. The owner envisioned a classic rural house—something you might find along a winding country road, with a welcoming porch, generous proportions, and a connection to both the landscape and a future working farm.

The home’s design draws inspiration from traditional Southern architecture, featuring a full wrap-around porch, gabled rooflines, and dormers that add warmth and character. Inside, open living spaces flow easily between the kitchen, dining, and living rooms, while large windows and a screened porch offer sweeping views of the property’s rolling fields. The three-car garage is connected to the house by a breezeway, creating a seamless transition between indoor and outdoor living spaces.

This residence is the first phase of a larger vision for the property, which will include a horse barn, paddock area, and a second home for the owner’s daughter. Thoughtfully sited to take advantage of both morning and evening light, the house feels rooted in its surroundings while providing all the comforts of modern living—a true blend of country charm and contemporary craftsmanship.
