There's something special about watching a new home rise from the ground up - every beam, every finish, every detail chosen with intention. And when that home lands in one of Soddy Daisy's most sought-after neighborhoods, it's worth paying attention.


Welcome to the newest addition to Serenity Cove, a stunning custom home crafted by Nu-Era Construction that's turning heads and redefining what new construction can look like in this growing North Hamilton County community. Clocking in at an impressive 3,378 square feet, this home doesn't just offer space - it offers a lifestyle.

From the moment you turn onto Restful Drive, this home commands attention. Nu-Era Construction leaned into a modern farmhouse aesthetic with Craftsman influences, and the result is nothing short of striking.


The exterior is clad in deep charcoal-gray vertical board-and-batten siding, framed by crisp black trim that gives the home a bold, contemporary edge. A multi-tonal stacked stone veneer runs along the foundation and wraps into the recessed front entry, adding texture and grounding the home in its natural surroundings. Warm cedar wood accents on the porch columns and window brackets soften the dark palette beautifully - it's the kind of balance that looks effortless but takes real intention to pull off.


The roofline is anything but ordinary. Three forward-facing gables flank a central hipped roof section, crowned by a black standing-seam metal dormer that adds character and dimension. Black metal awnings over the front windows echo that same metal roofing detail, tying the whole design together.


Black-framed windows without grids keep the look clean and modern, while the double entry doors with their tall vertical glass panes invite you in. Flanked by modern black box lanterns mounted on the stone entry wall, the front porch feels both grand and welcoming - a perfect preview of what's inside.


And the setting? Serenity Cove lives up to its name. The home sits against a backdrop of mature trees on a spacious, manicured lot with stone-edged planting beds and a curved concrete walkway that leads you right to the front door. It's peaceful, private, and picture-perfect.

At 3,378 square feet, this home is built to be lived in - not just admired. The single-story ranch layout means no stairs to navigate, making it as practical as it is beautiful. Three well-appointed bedrooms and three full bathrooms provide plenty of space for family, guests, or a home office setup. The bonus room adds another layer of flexibility - think media room, playroom, hobby space, or that home gym you've been promising yourself. And with a two-car garage, there's no shortage of storage or parking.


Every square foot reflects Nu-Era Construction's commitment to quality craftsmanship and thoughtful design. This isn't just a house that was built - it was designed.

Design Elements of the Modern Tudor Home

By Caroline Nelson • December 20, 2021
Traditionally, Tudor style homes feature steep, triangle roofs quintessential to their design, often layered from top to bottom in red brick. These gable roofs are a staple within Tudor homes. Tall windows contribute to their older, 17th-18th century English design that are often highlighted with a perimeter of wood. These homes often have interiors to match their older outside, rife with vintage wood panels and beams. The Modern Tudor, however, gives these homes and updated and rejuvenated feel that still pays homage to the timeless and historic look of these homes. While celebrating and respecting the original design and exterior on the outside, utilizing its signature staples in its roof shape and design, the home’s inside is revamped with a modern sleekness that replaces the medieval and archaic design of before with a stunning and confident interior that reflects advancement in modern home design while never crossing lines in its celebration of its roots. Brighter and lighter colors are used to give a current feel that breathes new life into these homes. Older aspects and materials of the home are often preserved to break up and soften the home’s interior and prevent it from feeling as if its strayed too far from its roots. An impressive meld of a classic and modern, the Modern Tudor will leave you feeling nostalgic but comfortable in its design.

Your Custom Home: How to Budget and Organize

By Caroline Nelson • May 1, 2019
Choosing to design and build a home is a tremendous financial commitment. It does not begin and end with the initial price of the home, either. Instead, adjustments and budget increases are a necessary part of the process. Whatever you initially anticipate spending on a new home design and build, be sure that you have budgeted for additional funds that will likely be required. During the course of a build there are many mitigating factors to consider. Depending on economic conditions, the price of materials could increase. It is also possible that a desired feature may need to be tweaked due to a backorder, manufacturer’s issue, or some other unforeseen circumstance. A good builder will keep you informed of changing costs, new developments, and the need to make some unexpected changes. As a home owner, you need to be prepared to handle changing circumstances and be able to roll with the changes. You want to ensure that you have a builder who will consult you for feedback while giving you his or her professional recommendations. Be prepared to combine your thoughts and plans with the information presented to you by your build team. Above all, remember that your builder is on your team. He or she is working to give you the best possible home according to your budget, your desires, and the resources available to them. Parts of the process will be stressful. Be prepared for that, but be sure that you have a builder that you trust who can help you work through the issues and mitigate situations as best as possible. At Nu-Era Construction, our goal is to build the home of your dreams. In every situation we will work to make sure that things stay on track as best as possible.
