Architectural Review Documentation
We design to the POA's architectural guidelines and prepare the plans and documentation the Architectural Review process requires, so approval is smooth and the build stays on schedule.
Loudon County · Tellico Lake
Tellico Village, TN
Luxury hardscape and landscape design for Tellico Village's lakefront estates, golf-frontage homes, and the standards of a master-planned lake community.
Tellico Village is one of East Tennessee's premier master-planned communities — a lakeside, golf-centered enclave on Tellico Lake with three championship courses, marinas, and a discerning, largely retired clientele who expect their outdoor spaces to match the setting. The terrain is dramatic: homes perched above the lake and along the fairways, with the kind of grade and view that rewards thoughtful hardscape. We design and build to that standard, and to the Property Owners Association's architectural guidelines.

The Setting
A Master-Planned Lake Community With High Expectations
Tellico Village homeowners have chosen a lifestyle defined by the lake, the golf, and the quality of the community — and they hold their outdoor projects to the same bar. The Village's lots are often steep, with elevated home sites dropping toward the water or fronting the fairways, which makes retaining and terracing central to nearly every project. We bring premium materials, low-maintenance luxury design, and full compliance with the POA's architectural review process to each build.
- POA architectural compliance
Tellico Village's Architectural Review process governs exterior improvements. We design to those guidelines and prepare the documentation needed for approval, so your project moves forward without surprises.
- Lakefront and fairway grade
Village lots frequently drop steeply from the home toward Tellico Lake or front the golf courses at grade. We design terraced retaining, stepped patios, and overlooks that make those slopes usable and capitalize on the view.
- Low-maintenance luxury for an active community
For a community that would rather be on the water or the course than maintaining a yard, we design premium outdoor living that looks high-end and stays that way with minimal upkeep.
Local Considerations
What We Plan For in Every Tellico Village Project
The community standards, steep lakefront grade, and discerning clientele specific to Tellico Village — addressed in every proposal.
Steep-Lot Retaining & Terracing
Lakefront and view lots in the Village drop sharply toward the water. We engineer terraced retaining and stepped hardscape that turn unusable slope into livable, view-capturing outdoor rooms.
Tellico Lake Waterfront Base Work
Hardscape near the shoreline uses a waterfront-rated base assembly modified for near-saturated soil, freeze-thaw near water, and TVA pool-level fluctuation, with shoreline-zone compliance where it applies.
Low-Maintenance Premium Design
We specify premium, durable materials and planting designed for minimal upkeep — luxury that holds its look while you spend your time on the lake or the course.
View & Outlook Composition
On lakefront and fairway lots, the view is the asset. We compose patios, overlooks, steps, and plantings to frame the lake and golf vistas rather than block them.
Crew Continuity You Can Reach
The same project lead is on your job from site walk to final walkthrough — no crew switching mid-project, and no account manager you never see on-site.
Our lot dropped so fast toward the lake we'd written off ever using the back of the property. They designed a terraced patio and steps that took us right down to a lakeside overlook — and handled the entire architectural approval so we didn't have to chase it. It's the reason we bought the house, finally realized.

Local FAQ
Tellico Village & Loudon County, Answered
Questions specific to luxury hardscape and landscape work in the Tellico Village community.
Do you handle the Tellico Village architectural review process?
Yes. We design to the POA's architectural guidelines and prepare the plans and documentation the Architectural Review Committee requires. Handling that process correctly is part of every Village project we take on.
Our lot drops steeply toward the lake. Can you make it usable?
That is one of our most-requested Village projects. We design terraced retaining, stepped patios, and lakeside overlooks that turn a steep, unusable slope into a series of livable outdoor rooms that capture the view.
Can you build right on the Tellico Lake shoreline?
Yes. We design drainage and waterfront-rated base assemblies for the specific pool-level and water-table conditions on the lake, and we work within TVA shoreline requirements where they apply to the shoreline zone.
We want something high-end but low-maintenance. Is that realistic?
Absolutely — it is exactly what most Village homeowners ask for. We specify premium, durable materials and resilient planting designed to keep their look with minimal upkeep, so your time goes to the lake and the course, not the yard.
How quickly can you schedule a site walk in Tellico Village?
For Tellico Village properties, a senior project lead can typically visit within 5–7 business days. Lakefront and steep-grade lots receive an extended assessment to document grade, shoreline conditions, and view lines before the design and architectural submittal are developed.
