Frequently Asked Questions About Building in Rarity Bay
Do you work within the Rarity Bay Architectural Review Manual?
Yes. Every home we build in Rarity Bay is designed in full compliance with the Architectural Review Manual, and we handle the submittal and review process for you. We have 20+ years of experience navigating HOA reviews in East TN lake communities.
Can you help me pick the right Rarity Bay lot before I buy?
Yes, and we encourage it. A complimentary lot review is one of the most valuable things we offer. We’ll walk your prospective lot with you, assess grade, drainage, view orientation, and build cost implications so you can make an informed offer.
Do you build on the waterfront lots with deep-water access?
Absolutely. Deep-water waterfront builds are one of our specialties. We coordinate dock permitting, shoreline work, and home placement to capture the best views and morning light.

Most Rarity Bay custom homes take 11 to 14 months from breaking ground to final walkthrough. Sloped lakefront lots and complex waterfront homes can run longer; we’ll give you a realistic timeline at the start.
