‘Inspired Cottage’ coming to Verdae

The 2021 edition of Milestone Custom Homes’ “Inspired Cottage” will be on display in the Hollingsworth Park neighborhood of Verdae, a master-planned community on Greenville’s Eastside.

The 2,470-square-foot “iCottage” is located at 138 Jessen Drive in the custom cottage community of Bella Grove, a traditional neighborhood in the 300-acre Hollingsworth Park development. Milestone Custom Homes created the Inspiration Home brand in 2009 to showcase elite building methods, captivating design, and innovative products at the forefront of the home building industry.

Features of the four-bedroom, four-bath cottage include timeless architectural lines, built-in flexibility with indoor/outdoor living, smart storage solutions, tall, light-maximizing windows and lofted ceilings, high-performance and energy efficient technologies, cohesive fixtures and state-of-the-art engineering. Coldwell Banker Caine will host open house weekends at the cottage June 17-20 and June 24-27.

This 2021 edition takes it a step further with a specific focus on health and wellness features born out of the past year’s experiences and challenges. The suite of air-improvement systems captures contaminants, pollutants, allergens, pollen, and more, to ensure the air that enters and is kept within the home is clean and healthy.

“After a year that brought so much intense focus to individual and collective health practices and during which we spent the majority of our time at home, it was a top priority for us to be able to showcase a home designed to promote an individual’s continuing physical, emotional, mental, and social ability to thrive within their environment,” said Jerry Fay, Milestone co-owner. “The iCottage represents the future of truly living well.”
