The charming home at 3202 Cates Avenue, in the posh north Atlanta suburb of Brookhaven, is a brilliant combination of functional style and aesthetic appeal. It’s curb appeal is inviting, from the classic brick masonry that meanders through the perfectly manicured lawn to the classic southern porch. Imposing columns are supported by brick risers perfectly placed below the painted tongue-and-groove ceiling and in front of symmetrical paned windows.
Gleaming blonde hardwood floors extend throughout the open floor plan on the main level. The foyer is flanked by the formal living and dining rooms, each displaying a distinct character. The living room is introduced by paneless glass transom-style French doors, and the dining room features a wide-arching transition denoted by two columns. A distinctive inlaid pattern in the floor and a coffered ceiling add a sense of elegance to the dining room.
The main hallway runs passed a classic stair to the upper level and into the great room and kitchen – find the dining room conveniently connected to the rear of the kitchen through a stylish butler’s pantry. The butler’s pantry and kitchen share a similar design motif with custom cabinets, granite countertops and colorful stone-themed tile backsplash.
Furthermore, the butler’s pantry features a stainless steel microwave and wine chiller to coordinate with the dual oven, professional range and range hood in the kitchen. The refrigerator blends in with the cabinetry and a large, granite topped, bi-level and three-sided island separates the kitchen from the great room and casual dining area.
Natural light fills the entire main level of this home – especially in the dining room, decorated with large windows overlooking the elevated rear deck. The great room features a large marble fireplace and with a hideaway inset entertainment center and custom built-ins on either side. A paneless glass door provides access to the rear screened porch , complete with a vaulted tongue- and-groove ceiling and matching knee wall treatment. Stairs lead from the deck to a terrace level two-car garage and a patio where residents can enjoy the beautiful foliage of the private backyard.
The master suite and two additional bedrooms are on the second level with a fourth bedroom and office on the terrace level. The spacious master suite captures natural light from two large windows and features a tri-level trey ceiling. The master bathroom retreat boasts dual, yet asymmetrical, vanities with granite countertops, situated opposite a large soaking tub and spa-inspired tile shower enclosure and private water closet.
This home has it all – eclectic style and modern design in perfect harmony. The only element missing is a new owner to complement the inimitable appeal of 3202 Cates Avenue NE in Brookhaven, Georgia.
