The Farm of Tralee named The BEST New Community Plan

The Farm of Tralee, located in Strawberry Plains TN, has been named Best New Community Plan By Mountain Homes, Southern Style in its Winter 2008 Annual Guide Issue.

Best New Community Award
Nestled in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, the Farm at Tralee provides views that include a snow-capped Mount Le Conte to the south and the distinctive contours of House and Clinch Mountains to the north.
Each of the forty homesites has been selected to capture mountain views and to assure maximum privacy for residents.  The number of homesites has been purposefully limited to allow the space, privacy and serenity that only a low-density, secure community can provide.
The Farm of Tralee is modeled after an English country retreat with natural materials and soft palettes that define the cottage-style homes. Future residents will own undivided interest in more than one hundred areas of common area, which include equestrian facilities, four-mile walking/riding trail, three-acre lake for fishing and swimming pool with cabana.
The Farm also provides its residents with numerous amenities. A twenty-four hour concierge serves the residents in various ways ranging from food shopping to technology help.
     Mountain Homes, Southern Style focuses on upscale communities in Virginia, West Virginal, North and South Carolina. Tennessee, Maryland, Georgia and Alabama. The five year old publication is owned by Leisure Publishing of Roanoke, Va.

The Farm at Tralee is a premier gated community and English riding facility in the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains.  With over 190 acres of peaceful rolling hills and majestic mountain views, residents can enjoy the sanctuary of a farm setting and the ease of maintenance-free living.  Amenities include: on-call concierge, outdoor arena with jumps and trails, and easy access to Knoxville’s 50-plus golf courses.  Tommy Hamm, a new visitor of The Farm at Tralee, said "Standing on top of that hill at Tralee is as good a view as one can get in this region. By the time I got to the top of that small hill, I was breathless from the climb. Then the view made me even more breathless.”
