Inspired by architect Richard Meier, the High Museum of Art designer, this immaculate hilltop contemporary home rests on 2.21+/- gated, wooded acres and offers immense privacy.
Post Modern in style, the home’s exterior consists of stark white bonded stucco contrasted by black railings, black cantilevered rooflines and punctuated by rectilinear windows.
The occasional curvilinear feature adds an element of surprise to the home and illustrates the contemporary side of the architecture. Enter into the light-filled, two-story, 24-foot foyer where a serpentine staircase consisting of warm wood cool metal draws the eye upward to the take in the scale of this grand entry.
Directly off the foyer, the two-story dining room delights with a sinuous gallery overhang, access to an outdoor eating area and doors to a second covered balcony with an outdoor living area with an outdoor kitchen outfitted with an electric smoker and a gas grill.
The renovated kitchen impresses with sleek, German, lacquered flat-panel and full-height cabinetry, an 18-foot island with a waterfall edge, a Wolf gas range with a double oven, two Miele dishwashers, a warming drawer and a GE Monogram refrigerator.
The sun-drenched casual dining area invites with a fireplace and access to the four-season porch and subsequent circular deck. The interior of the home consists of large-scale entertaining rooms as well as intimate, everyday spaces, each with glass doors or endless windows providing a peek into the rooms beyond.
This balance between open and closed elements is characteristic of Meier’s style and is illustrated throughout the home. Enjoy crisp white walls contrasted by rich hardwood floors, three fireplaces, endless windows framing, tree-top views and monochromatic design choices throughout.
Upstairs, relax in the sprawling primary suite, which boasts a vaulted bedroom with clerestory windows, a dual-sided fireplace, double closets and two bathrooms – one with accordion doors opening to the primary’s private porch.
Additional features of note include a separate wing with two bedrooms, two bathrooms and a living room, a $100K media room with 11.2 Dolby Atmos system and a truest black Sony laser projector, a commercially equipped gym, Lutron-controlled lighting, seven Nest thermostats, a 1500- bottle, climate-controlled wine cellar with display lighting and a two-car garage.
Completely private, fully fenced and located at the end of the cul-de-sac, this home feels a world away from the big city lifestyle yet is only minutes to Heards Ferry Elementary School, excellent private schools, Chastain Park, Buckhead, The Battery Atlanta, I-285 and I-75.
Feel like you are on vacation every day in this contemporary work of art.
