Description
Designed for multi-generational living and entertaining, this custom Benecki home is on a quiet street just steps from the action. Spread over three floors, it is laid out around a social courtyard with a shady porch, pool and separate guest quarters above the detached two-car garage. Natural light floods the impressive foyer of this luxuriously appointed residence. It opens into an equally sophisticated living/dining room with textured limestone floors and hand-crafted beams adding charm and character. Atlanta designer, Melanie Turner, applied flawless attention to detail with Venetian plaster walls, a feature fireplace and contemporary oil-rubbed bronze light fixtures. An oversized island with bar seating creates a social hub overlooking the superbly equipped chef’s kitchen with a Sub-Zero refrigerator and a six-burner cooktop with griddle. The adjoining butler’s pantry goes beyond the usual storage space with its own sink, a second dishwasher, refrigerator, microwave and coffee bar area. Fully retractable glass doors allow guests to spill out into the private courtyard oasis with pool, outdoor kitchen, gas grill and ice maker. Steps lead up to the one-bedroom carriage house, which is fully self-contained with its own kitchen, bathroom, living and dining areas. Two lavish master suites, including one on the first floor, boast ensuite baths with twin vanities and walk-in showers. The second-floor master also has a sitting room providing a private escape for relaxing after soaking in the luxury spa tub. Also on this level, there’s a capacious laundry room and a series of guest rooms each with their own boutique ensuite facilities. The third floor is dedicated to fun with a social gathering space including a home theater/media room with wet bar, pool table, and a bunk room to comfortably sleep eight. The Rosemary Beach vibe continues at the neighboring fitness center, Sky pool and racquet club. Town center shops, restaurants and live entertainment are a short walk away, along with the beautiful white sandy beach.
