Since opening with a flourish in June 2009, just minutes off the Blue Ridge Parkway and the heart of Roanoke, VA, Ballyhack Golf Club has made quite a name for itself with accolades from leading golf magazines celebrating its Lester George-designed course. The 190-acre layout is shaped to the natural flow of century-old farmland and blends the dramatic qualities of modern design with the traditions and style of Europe’s Old World links courses, featuring 50- to 70-foot elevation changes, fairways as wide as 150 yards and old-style, gouged- and roughed-out bunkers.
Ballyhack recently marked its one-year anniversary by breaking ground on its 11,500-square-foot clubhouse featuring a private steakhouse-style restaurant, wine room and a number of concierge services.
“The clubhouse is on track to be completed at the end of this season, and we couldn’t be more pleased to be able to open this extraordinary facility so soon after having introduced the course,” says Jonathan Ireland, Ballyhack’s director of operations. “The club will be the heartbeat and penultimate gathering place for our Members and their guests, and we’ve designed it to feel timeless, like it’s always been here.”
The 370-acre community offers a number of homesites for sale, all positioned with remarkable views of the course. Evoking the spirit of the nearby Blue Ridge Mountains, each homesite offers its own distinct character and miles upon miles of uninterrupted scenery. A limited number of custom homesites comprising Ballyhack’s first phase range from one to two-plus acres and start in the $170,000s, with Ballyhack’s most select sites in the $270,000s.
