A one of a kind custom built post and beam home – surrounded by majestic old growth hardwoods in Roswell’s Mountain Park neighborhood – is for sale. The home located at 115 East Lake Drive was carefully designed and built, lovingly tended to by the original owners.
From the moment your eyes gaze upon the exterior of the home, the workmanship and architectural detail is apparent. Florida cypress plank and western cedar shingle envelope the home, allowing it to fit effortlessly with the surrounding natural landscape.
There are more than 40 windows in this 3,213 square foot, three bedroom, three and a half bedroom home. Each window and doorway were carefully planned and accentuated with craftsman touches. All the trim and millwork was completed by hand on site.
Inside, the main room is a breathtaking sight with exposed post and beams in one large flowing space. The floors and partial walls are knotty white pine 1×12 V-joint construction. The floors are also the work of a true craftsman – they are random width old resawn pine timbers. Just gorgeous! The kitchen is part of this open format and is a joy to be in. Details include glass front cabinets, top of the line appliances and plenty of counter and storage space.
The master bedroom suite is also on the main level is and is filled with natural light. The view is of the surrounding forest – it’s as if you feel like you’re sleeping in a tree house! The master bathroom includes a large jetted tub and a doorless large walk in shower with tile seat. There’s a separate double vanity outside.
The most extraordinary space in this home might just be the two-story vaulted screened in porch. There are exquisite details here in the trim work, fans and plenty of room for a sleeping area. It’s so easy to forget your troubles while sitting here three (or four!) seasons of the year while looking out into the wilderness.
Mountain Park is special because you’re only 2.5 miles from the hustle and bustle of vibrant North Atlanta but tucked quietly away in an idyllic setting with two lakes, many parks, a diverse resident base, and some of Georgia’s best public schools.
