THE GREENBRIER SPORTING CLUB
T
he Greenbrier Sporting Club is a private residential community master planned by
Hart Howerton and developed on the grounds of the historic Greenbrier Resort in
White Sulphur Springs, West Virginia. Created for members and families with a love of
sport and the outdoors, The Greenbrier Sporting Club, nestled within the lush 6,500
acres of “America’s Resort,” represents Sir Nick Faldo’s once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to
own a piece of history at the most acclaimed West Virginia property.
The development of the Club will reflect the same ethics that have shaped The
Greenbrier Resort: an appreciation for nature, the love of sportsmanship, and the
importance of maintaining tradition. And it is for these reasons that Sir Nick Faldo
approached Hart Howerton to design and build his residential retreat at The Greenbrier.

THE LODGE COTTAGES
D
esigned by Hart Howerton and delivered to the real estate market as a “turnkey product,” the Lodge Cottages at The Greenbrier Sporting Club reflect
the rugged beauty of the Allegheny Mountains and offer buyers the opportunity
to live in homes at the center of activity. Conveniently located adjacent to The
Members’ Lodge, Sports Complex and Spa, this cluster of 20 cottages reflect the
casual, vernacular architectural style of The Lodge and are just steps from the
private golf course.
These homes use natural materials and earthen colors native to the wooded
mountainside to permit the home to blend gracefully with its surroundings. And,
at approximately 4,400 square feet and four bedrooms/four bathrooms, they
offer prospective buyers the potential for rental income through The Greenbrier
Sporting Club’s use by members and their guests.

THE OPPORTUNITY
S
ir Nick Faldo and Hart Howerton dedicate their respective design practices to
drawing on the history, traditions and culture of a given context – its geographic
region; its members, visitors and guests; and developers’ sales and operating objectives.
Beginning with a charrette-style exploration of market-driven, site specific solutions,
each Faldo Club Residence design will be unique; the architectural character, whether
modern or traditional, will be both a response to a project’s specific objectives as
well as Sir Nick Faldo’s personal taste in luxurious living. Each bespoke design will be
a distinct response crafted in concert with developer expectations and, equally, the
real estate’s natural setting, climate, topography, views, indigenous building forms and
materials that have been appropriately used in that particular region over generations.
Each product will be contemplated as part of the complete golf experience in harmony
with real estate sales, operations and as an extension of the golf course landscape itself.
