This East Lake residence was designed to feel classic and personal. From the street, the wide front porch pulls you in, a nod to traditional Southern architecture, and French doors open the house from front to back, bringing in light, air, and an easy flow for entertaining.
Inside, the main level balances scale with warmth. High ceilings and expansive rooms set a dramatic tone, yet every space remains inviting. The dining room, finished with box-beam ceilings, makes dinner parties special without being overly formal. Just beyond, a paneled den with pocket doors overlooks the backyard, an ideal spot for unwinding after work or enjoying conversation.
Upstairs, the primary suite spans the front of the house and feels like its own hideaway. Two walk-in closets, a soaking tub, and a series of French doors open to a second-story porch that runs the width of the home. From here, mornings can start with coffee outdoors, and evenings can end with the neighborhood in view.
Practical touches haven’t been overlooked. A rear-entry garage with alley access keeps the street view clean, while the unfinished walk-up above the garage is ready for storage, a workshop, or even a future guest suite.
Location, of course, is the final piece. In Atlanta’s East Lake community, just two blocks from the Village and minutes from Kirkwood and Oakhurst, the home places restaurants, coffee shops, and parks at your fingertips. Whether gathering friends or settling in for a quiet weekend, the design makes it all possible, proof that good architecture can be as comfortable as it is beautiful.
