While navigating to the home at 521 Collier Road in Atlanta, Georgia you will witness the beauty of one of the oldest and most established neighborhoods in Atlanta. Originally built in the 1930s, this home retains aspects and the original character of the southern traditional Craftsman cottage design which defines the neighborhood. This particular residence, however, has been recently renovated and expanded. The result is a home with the advantages of modern comfort that does not compromise the traditional appeal which makes homes of this era so desirable.
A front porch reminiscent of bygone days is nestled amid the original craftsmanship of brick and stone masons of nearly a century ago. The porch itself, however, features a new slate floor and new, antique-looking light fixtures. Even the new front door of the home looks as if it could have been installed by the original residents. Every care has been taken in this renovation to pay homage to the original appearance and appeal of the residence.
The attention to detail is most apparent after you enter the home. New hardwood floors have a unique antique appearance. Tasteful moldings and classic light fixtures embellish the entire main living area of the home. The formal living room, which immediately opens from the foyer, features a brick motif tile and marble fireplace and is open to the formal dining room.
Continuing into the home from the dining room you will arrive in the completely renovated kitchen. Stylish and worthy of the culinary creations of the most contemporary gourmet chef, the kitchen features custom marble atop the counters as well as the central island. Brick motif tile again makes an appearance on the back splash of the custom cabinetry and as an accent to the new stainless steel appliances. The kitchen in turn opens to a spacious family room with an additional fireplace smartly done in marble.
The en suite bathroom in the upstairs master features dual vanities and a slate tile floor. The custom shower enclosure is tiled with a glass door and the bathroom also features a private water closet. The home contains three additional bedrooms and two additional full bathrooms.
The home is open and receives an abundance of natural sunlight. The semi-private backyard is spacious and flat with mature foliage, the perfect place for outdoor entertaining at any time of year.
Though located in the midst of many commercial districts and established neighborhoods the residents of this area have taken great pains to keep this historical enclave free from commercial incursion. With an unmatched pedigree and modern renovations and upgrades the home at 521 Collier Road in Atlanta, Georgia will uphold the standard of this wonderful neighborhood for many years to come.
