This beautiful custom home at 3883 Fairfax Court SE in Vinings was originally built in 1980 on the largest lot in Brandy Station. Custom designed, the home has only had one owner and has undergone several thoughtful transformations and upgrades since it was first built.
Features of the stunning 5,791+/- square-foot home include solid wood doors throughout, incredible insulation that reduces utility bills, two HVAC systems, wiring for speakers and alarm, and a walk-in utility closet with shelves and built-in cabinetry.
The main foyer features an elegant lead glass window framed by transom windows. The formal dining room is just off the foyer and has seating for up to 12 guests. The foyer leads to the great room, which has a vaulted ceiling with exposed beams, shiplap walls, custom mahogany built-in bookcases, a pass-through fireplace and an entrance to a large balcony with sweeping views of the backyard.
On the main level, there are three bedrooms, including the master suite, two full bathrooms and a powder room. All of the bedrooms, bathrooms and walk-in closets have built-in drawers and shelves. The master bedroom features a double trey ceiling, built-in drawers and a beautiful bathroom with a double vanity, Whirlpool bathtub and a separate shower.
This incredible kitchen was designed for convenience and has below-counter level drawers for easy access. It is truly a chef’s kitchen with stainless steel appliances that include a double oven, warming drawer, two farmhouse sinks with disposals, four refrigerator drawers, another full refrigerator and two Asko dishwashers. All drawers are dovetailed and pre-finished for strength.
The side foyer offers a barrel ceiling and the arched, custom door leads to the driveway, while the other door leads to a fenced side yard and a fabulous outdoor kitchen area.
The amazing terrace level features Art Deco-inspired architecture and includes a living room with a gas log fireplace that can convert to wood burning. It offers a smaller full kitchen and two bedrooms with full bathrooms featuring built-in drawers and shelves. In addition to the second kitchen, there is a contemporary bar with a wine fridge, icemaker and a sink, convenient for entertaining. The bamboo floors are sealed to keep out water and for long wear. Gorgeous maple wood encompasses the terrace library. Off the library is a room that can be used as a media room or tasting room. It leads into the large temperature-controlled wine cellar that holds approximately 1,200 bottles.
Originally an all-brick home, the owner had most of the brick removed and replaced it with the current stone – the brick was then used to build the garden shed! The original deck was built of wood but has since been replaced with steel columns and brick. Beautiful lighting was also added. As the house faces north, the backyard and deck get plenty of sunlight. It’s an ideal space.
The swimming pool and spa have been converted to a saline system and additional water features were added. Two new pumps were added in 2014 with a new variable-speed sand filter.
The home’s gorgeous landscaping has wiring for light and water, five magnificent Japanese maple trees of different varieties, brick garden shed and a fountain. Gibbs Gardens designed the magnificent side garden. Incredible Japanese maple trees have been strategically planted, crepe myrtle trees line the pool terrace with camellias in between and encore azaleas and hydrangeas bloom during the summer. The covered gazebo is outfitted with electricity and gas for a kitchen with ceiling lights and fan.
The oversized garage has lots of storage, including a freezer, walk-in closet with shelves, cabinets and drawers from the original kitchen and a large, solid wood bookcase. The double driveway provides generous parking and fits six to eight cars and additional parking in the cul-de-sac.
Permanent stairs lead to the attic that contains over 1,700+/- square feet. Two more bedrooms and bathrooms could be added here. This home is a private oasis for the lucky homeowner with its benefits of low maintenance, low utilities and low Cobb County taxes. The house is very private and is larger than what tax records state. Enjoy the tour!
