| Street-side view of Eagle Mountain
Aerie mountain home designed by Rand Soellner Architect. Rand
used colored concrete pavers and thick flagstone pavers along
the driveway and motor court. The property had a
substantial cross-slope, so Mr. Soellner picked a point in the
middle and had half of the driveway go down and half go up;
which situated the home in the middle. The multiple gable
roofs at various heights provide a rambling mountain character
to the entry side of the home, while allowing spacious vaulted
ceilings within the home. The large lodge-style
porte-cochere (covered vehicular entry) at the front porch is a
significant aesthetic element that makes it immediately
understandable where the entrance to the home is located. |

Eagle Mountain Aerie
Majestic Rand
Soellner Mountain Lodge Style Home Takes Shape in Lake Toxaway, NCThis
home is for a discerning family from Florida who wanted a special “heritage”
home that will remain in the family for centuries. Impressed
with the Falcon Cliff Lodge, this home is about twice as large, with
5,600 heated square feet and about 8,000 gross sf. Large log
posts support the rear porches and commanding front porte-cochere.
Large rock masonry clads the historic battered (sloping) column
pedestals. Acid-washed faux-slate concrete roof tiles with
copper flashings should protect the roof for hundreds of years.
