The past decade has seen an explosion in the popularity of contemporary style homes, a style of residential architecture that borrows from modern designs and is rooted in the “now,” therefore making it an ever-evolving design style that reflects common architectural trends of the time.
The style pays tribute to many of the features of modern architecture, including an emphasis on open floor plans, natural light, and geometric lines. Its embrace of minimalistic elements and sleek, thoughtful details offers an “everything in its right place” interior featuring designs that are high on function and simplicity and low on clutter and fuss.
This completely renovated, 6-bedroom home in Sandy Springs is a gleaming example of a contemporary style home that is both aesthetically pleasing and puts function at the forefront of its design. Located in the sought-after Glen Errol neighborhood, this stunning, move-in-ready home features thoughtfully considered architectural elements throughout that are designed for today’s living; custom built-ins and woodwork, a sun-drenched open floor plan, white-oak hardwood floors throughout, spacious rooms, high ceilings, and even skylights.
The front porch welcomes you into the expansive two-story foyer flanked by the dining room, office, and living room and accentuated by the custom steel and cable rail split staircase. The vaulted great room’s soaring 18’ ceilings, skylights, and shiplap walls accentuating the sleek gas fireplace make for the perfect space to entertain, as the open floor plan connects it with the luxurious, gourmet chef’s kitchen.
The chef’s kitchen features white cabinetry, quartz countertops with sculpted subway tile backsplash, a center island with a breakfast bar, professional grade stainless steel appliances, custom designed pantry, a farm sink, a butler’s pantry with wine cooler, and a bright breakfast area.
