At 2370 Coosawattee Drive in Atlanta, Georgia, among the eclectic mix of architectural styles that have collected here over time, sits what might be the most unique home on the entire street. There are a handful of newly constructed houses of varying sizes and styles and homes currently under construction in this neighborhood, but there are just as many homes that were built in the coolest decade ever—the 90s. These homes are occupied by colorful and nonconforming city dwellers who have found their happy place in Brookhaven, on Coosawattee Drive to be exact.
At first glance, or maybe at second glance that turns into a straight out gaze, one might find the curved lines along the façade of this house a bit misplaced. But these are likely passersby who think all houses should look just slightly different in the most subtle way possible. The fact is, once you venture inside this home, the continuous curvy lines that swirl around start to make more sense. Because without them, this would just be another house different from others only in the most subtle ways.
The frisky front entrance attempts to play a reflective trick with the illusion of two doors atop two doors, unobstructed by the overstated archway in front of it. An open floor plan reveals spacious rooms stitched seamlessly together but defined perfectly by the mix of floor treatments. Hardwoods down the hallway, tile in the kitchen and carpeting in the family room. By the looks of the wood-burning stove and glass brick accents, you’d be smart to bet that this home is energy-efficient.
An elegant dining room opens to the curvilinear balcony overlooking the neighborhood. A wonderful kitchen shows off its curves with a large counter that bows out to make room for the breakfast eaters. A spherical gallery houses the best art piece, and the contoured walls lead to more playful spaces of this Atlanta home that may appear to be replicating The High Museum.
Upstairs, the master bedroom sits behind a dramatic window that proves to be the perfect spot to drape sunshine. Conversation windows are cut high in the wall between the master bedroom and its bath. This is likely useful when the bathroom amenities are enjoyed for too long. An upgraded soaking tub tiled to a half-glass separate shower sits across from a vessel sink, making for a functional and aesthetically pleasing view. A slanted window trellis and more glass brick keep the perfect amount of daylight in the room. An enormous walk-in closet completes the master suite.
A finished terrace level, enchanting backyard and roomy back deck, complete with curved railing make up the remainder of the tour. The synopsis is that this house is not common, yet it is pleasant and uncanny. If reading this has caused you to see the status quo as tired and repetitive, then you owe it to yourself to take a closer look at 2370 Coosawattee Drive in Atlanta, Georgia.
