Built for the wedding weekend

Skip the hotel rooms. Get ready under one roof.

A new country house on a quiet acre in Johnston County, minutes from the area’s wedding venues, designed so a whole wedding party can dress, primp and leave together, then come home to a porch, a garden and a greenhouse.

Newly built, at the end of a long drive

The house

Newly built, at the end of a long drive

Turn in between two white brick pillars and follow the asphalt drive about a hundred yards to a custom home completed in 2026: nearly 3,200 square feet of high-end finishes on a secluded one-acre lot. Three bedrooms and a sitting room with a sleeper sofa hold up to eight, and the whole house and grounds are yours.

Inside the house

The greenhouse

An outdoor living room, made of glass

Air-conditioned, furnished in bright, comfortable colours, and strictly shoes off. Coffee in the morning, the bouquets before the ceremony, the photos everyone keeps.

Getting ready

Everything the morning of needs

Nearby

Minutes from the venues

Zebulon, Wendell and the Johnston County countryside are full of barns, farms and estates. A few of them. Photos courtesy of Google.

The screened porch

Breakfast without the bugs

Rocking chairs, a fluffy rug and a CURRENT electric griddle, out in the country air for most of the year.

The grounds

An acre of garden, fenced and green

Nearly an acre of landscaped beds and lawn, fully fenced, with a tiered fountain, the greenhouse and blooms through the warm months. Eastern tiger swallowtails are regular visitors.

Lora Williams

From the owner

Why we built it this way

For more than thirty years we travelled with our own pillows and boxes of cookware, because the rentals we found never quite had what we needed. When we built The Greenhouse Getaway in 2026, on country land that was once part of a larger farm, we designed it around one kind of weekend in particular: the wedding.

Johnston County is full of beautiful venues, and the families and wedding parties who come for them deserve better than a corridor of hotel rooms. So the house has two full bathrooms with double vanities and a half bath, full-length mirrors throughout, ironing boards and steamers, a primary suite with a walk-in closet big enough to get ready in, and a garage so everyone can load up dry when it rains. And then there is the greenhouse, which we hope ends up in your photos.

We also own Deer Trail Lodge on Beech Mountain. If you need anything while you are here, call or text.

Once part of a farm

The land

Once part of a farm

The acre the house sits on was once part of a larger tract with farm structures, out in the Johnston County countryside. We built new in 2026, planted the beds, set the fountain and put up the greenhouse, and we are looking forward to every bloom.

Deer Trail Lodge, Beech Mountain

Our first home is a remodelled log cabin at 4,330 feet in the North Carolina mountains, two miles from the ski slopes, with a fire pit, two creeks and deer most mornings. Dogs welcome.
