Holly Creek
Contemporary 1600 square-foot home in Greeneville, Tennessee.
Contractor : Owner Builder
Holly Creek is a contemporary custom home designed to sit lightly within its wooded setting along the creek it is named after. Located in Greeneville, Tennessee, this 1,600 square foot residence embraces the natural slope of the land, using architecture to choreograph a close relationship between interior spaces and the landscape beyond.
The home includes two bedrooms and two bathrooms, organized around a series of interconnected living spaces that flow seamlessly indoors and out. Rather than a single central living area, the design creates multiple places to gather, relax, and retreat, each oriented to a different view or outdoor terrace.
Extensive glazing lines the primary elevations, dissolving the boundary between inside and outside and drawing daylight deep into the home. These large window walls frame views of the surrounding trees and creek, allowing the house to feel immersed in nature throughout the seasons. Outdoor entertaining spaces step with the slope of the site, creating layered decks and patios that extend the living experience into the landscape.
Holly Creek reflects our approach to custom home design in Tennessee, where site conditions, topography, and lifestyle shape the architecture from the outset. The result is a modern, nature-driven home that feels both grounded in place and open to its surroundings.
