The view from the top of Hans and Sabrina Weger’s driveway can be described as “alluring.” Descend to their doorstep and the view of the lake only gets better ... and better. The entrance could be a lobby in a luxury hotel. A sign on the front door says, “E komo mai,” which in Hawaiian means “Welcome.” As in, Welcome to Weger-ville.
Excuse the boxes. The golf courses, the boat, and the pool out back make it hard for us to find time to unpack. The boxes don’t seem to bother our friends and family — they haven’t stopped visiting since we moved in two months ago. That was our intent when we moved here.
The house is designed to host people. Hans used to build resorts all around the world. Maldives. Mauritius. Fiji. Oahu. We brought some of those concepts into our house to make it inviting and interesting.
See the gate at the pool? We brought it here from Hawaii. The chandeliers are from Europe. The four guest rooms all have themes, like Memphis, New Orleans, and Honolulu. Even the bathrooms are customized to make you feel like you’re in a resort. One bathroom door is from a barn on our family farm in Mississippi.
