Prize-Winning Modern Home in the Mountains

Welcome to The Mod Lodge!

Centrally nestled between Boone and Blowing Rock, The Mod Lodge offers unbeatable access to the endless adventures of the High Country. Just five minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway, you can easily explore the region's hiking trails, waterfalls, and scenic overlooks. Within a 15-minute drive, you'll find popular attractions like Tweetsie Railroad, Appalachian Ski Mountain, High Gravity Adventure Zipline and Aerial Park, and the Tanger Outlets of Blowing Rock. After an action-packed day, head to downtown Blowing Rock for a leisurely stroll, savoring delicious local cuisine and unique shopping experiences.

The Mod Lodge, a stunning mountain retreat, was crowned the winner of The Matsumoto Prize—North Carolina's most prestigious accolade dedicated solely to modernist residential architecture in 2010. This custom-built home blends contemporary design with the rustic charm of its natural surroundings. As you step into the main level, you're greeted by soaring ceilings that create an airy, open atmosphere, perfect for basking in the serenity of the mountains. The spacious living area invites relaxation, featuring a leather sectional that's ideal for sinking into after a day of adventure. A large HDTV promises entertainment, but it's the warmth of the wood stove that truly steals the show. Imagine cozying up by its gentle glow on a crisp winter evening, the flickering flames casting a soft, golden light that enhances the room's inviting ambiance. The Mod Lodge features a modern kitchen with sleek stainless steel appliances and a butcher block island that adds a touch of rustic warmth. The island includes seating for two, making it an ideal spot for casual meals or a quick chat while cooking. A dedicated workspace is located on the main level.

Step outside to discover The Mod Lodge's enchanting outdoor space, where nature's beauty and modern comfort merge effortlessly. The covered patio invites you to unwind in style, complete with bistro seating that's perfect for enjoying your morning coffee or an intimate alfresco meal. For those who love to grill, the gas grill stands ready for your culinary creations. Gather around the fire pit, nestled in cozy Adirondack chairs, and let the crackling flames and mountain air soothe your soul. Whether it's roasting marshmallows under the stars or sharing stories with loved ones, this outdoor haven is the ideal spot to create unforgettable memories.

The Mod Lodge is a charming tiny home designed for a cozy mountain escape. The loft features a king bed, where you can unwind while watching TV or slide open the door to let in the refreshing mountain air. On the main level, you'll find a well-appointed bathroom with a tub/shower combo.

Perfect Fall break

I loved the interior decor!! We used the outside firepit every night and most mornings while sipping on coffee. So close to Boone, Blowing Rock, Sugar Mtn, the parkway, everything! The house had everything we needed. It was absolutely perfect.
