French Country Collection
Decorated with warm, bold colors, such as vivid blue, rich gold and red, a French Country home exudes rustic warmth and soft lines.

The French Country Collection offers wonderfully beautiful French Country cottage designs that are sure to brighten up the grayest of days. The stone, old brick and stucco exteriors and slate roofs are finished with the unexpected—and superb—detail of copper gutters.
Inside, homeowners will find wood beam and copper accents in addition to wood and natural stone flooring for an authentic French feel. Cozy French kitchens topped off with granite countertops are perfect for making Chicken Cordon Bleu, croissants or liver pate for your family, your friends or your next dinner party.
Compass Luxury Homes handles all the details so you don’t have to. Just open the door to your new French Country home—it’s sure to exceed your expectations.
Lake Shore Collection
For many people, living lakeside is like owning a little slice of paradise. Whether you want to escape to the lake for a weekend or an extended stay, it’s like you are on summer vacation all year long. You can sit back and relax while watching the seasons change or explore your second childhood with the many recreational activities on the lake and along the shore.
Compass Luxury Homes’ Lake Shore Collection offers homes specially designed for lake topography and luxury lakeside living. A full-service team of builders, designers and service professionals are on hand to create a lake home that provides just what you need to get away from it all.
For homeowners who can’t get enough of the great outdoors, the open porches are ideal for lounging after a day of boating or fishing or they serve as a gathering spot for a hearty family breakfast before a fun-filled day of activities. The outdoor fireplaces and kitchens offer an opportunity to take in the evening summer sky in style or to entertain family and friends without missing the view. Plus, interior details help to bring outdoor living inside to be enjoyed no matter the season.
Stone, brick and wood exteriors complement the natural setting and provide the sense of privacy so often sought when escaping from a busy workweek.

As the early morning sun climbs into the eastern sky and shines in the windows of your new home, the day starts with birds singing and dew on the grass. The sounds of traffic are far away, while the conveniences you depend on are all still at your fingertips.

Old European Collection
A stroll along the streets of an old Mediterranean town is sure to create images that stay with you for a long time—narrow cobblestone roads, stucco buildings and open-air markets are all reminiscent of a bygone era. The history associated with these places is rich and produces a feeling you’d like to bring home along with your souvenirs.
Compass Luxury Homes’ Old European Collection can help you craft that old European feel right here in the Upstate. With medium to large floor plans that balance classic beauty with European elements, the many home plans available are never short on grand details.
Stone, stucco and brick exteriors and slate roofs set the scene from the outside, while heavy wood door entries welcome guests in royal style. Formal living areas and open plans provide plenty of opportunities for entertaining and showing off your new home. Wrought-iron, copper and wood accents throughout add a special touch, and copper sinks and granite countertops add sophistication to any dinner party or Sunday lunch at home.
The amazing master suites and elegant European kitchens inspire culinary delights and spa-style weekends with bubble bathes. Hardwood, natural stone, marble and limestone flooring ensure that the proper European feeling is continued right down to the floor, all with superb craftsmanship.
Whether you’ve spent a lot of time in Europe or you just daydream about it, Compass Luxury Homes can help you live the dream every day.
Southern Estate Collection
Building your estate begins with a tract of land and ends with the perfect estate house to call home. Whether you own a horse farm or will leave your acreage empty to fully enjoy the openness, the home is the crown jewel.
Designed with an eye toward Southern Estate charm and plantation styling, Compass Luxury Homes’ Southern Estate Collection goes above and beyond to build a home that will be a family legacy and a showpiece for generations to come. Start with brick and hardwood exteriors that are both durable and beautiful, especially when capped off with slate or 50-year architectural roofing, and then let Compass Luxury Homes add the details that make a house a home.
The many large and spacious floor plans offer exquisite Southern kitchens, where down-home cooking keeps the family well-fed and feeling loved. Hardwood and marble tile flooring stand up to the wear of an active family while maintaining an atmosphere of elegance and luxury. Magnificent studies provide an office away from the office so you don’t have to miss out on family time.
No detail is overlooked in these grand homes, from the granite and ceramic tile countertops to the stylish lighting fixtures and meticulous crown molding. Compass Luxury Homes’ relationship with several upscale, Upstate design firms means you don’t have to be bogged down in the details, but can thoroughly enjoy the outcome.
Weekend Escape Collection
Today, we work longer and more hours than ever before. With e-mail, fax machines, PDAs and cell phones, we’re almost never disconnected from a 24-hour world, and that can make it harder to relax and reduce stress. Time with family and friends becomes precious, and a weekend getaway destination is practically a necessity in order to reconnect.
Compass Luxury Homes’ Weekend Escape Collection has just what you need to create a quick-escape oasis. With many cottage and bungalow designs to choose from, these cozy architectural designs are sure to soothe away the stress when you need to get away from it all.
Along with all the luxury living details you’re accustomed to, these homes offer exotic hardwood and natural stone flooring, granite countertops and slate, cedar shake and 50-year architectural roofing, all chosen to complement each other by a professional design team so you don’t have to take time out of your already overloaded schedule.
Home exteriors include cedar shake, stone and board-n-batten shutters, all crafted with expertise and built to perfection. Designed as an escape from the hustle and bustle of the working world, these smaller homes are perfect for a weekend with your loved ones and a break from the office.
