Northcrest: Another Happy Home Owner!

July 9th, 2011

After multiple offers and multiple contracts falling though Evan and Rebecca finally found their NORTHCREST Dream Home!! They are the new LUCKY owners of 3685 Eaglerock Dr.

Have you been looking for a Mid-Century Modern Home in Atlanta but can’t find it? Have you heard of Northcrest? I know there is a lot of stigma with living “OTP” (outside the perimeter) but here is the thing: Northcrest isn’t “outside” it’s “at” the perimeter! and I can tell you from personal experience that it is easier to get to places in and around Atlanta from this location than most in-town locations where I’ve lived in the past! With 285 and 85 so close you can be in Buckhead in 10 minutes and at the Perimeter Mall area in less than 15. Or if you need to shoot downtown for some IKEA shopping you can get there in 15 minutes!!

So stop getting all hung up on living ”INSIDE” the perimeter. In Northcrest you get more BANG for the BUCK, bigger yards, cool neighbors and an assortment of wildlife! Plus we have tiki bar at our swim club, WHAT OTHER NEIGHBORHOOD POOL HAS A TIKI BAR!?!?! Riddle me that!

This Garden Retreat is a certified Wildlife Habitat by the Atlanta Audubon Society! While the home still has Mid-Century Modern bones, it has been transformed into a modern day nature preserve with plenty of natural light, two professionally installed waterfalls and secret paths that wind through the exotic foliage of the back and front yards. If you take your time walking around the property you might spot a blue bird, an owl or a woodpecker. Inside, the home has beautiful new, natural, oak hardwoods and fresh paint! The kitchen has granite and custom cabinetry with plenty of space for your china and silver. If you are familiar with these Mid-Century Modern Split level homes in Northcrest you will notice that the bedrooms of this home are about 3 to 4 feet bigger than the average home. One of the most charming additions is the glassed in stone sanctuary that overlooks the backyard waterfall and gardens!! This is truly a beautiful home on an incredible lot!!

Dick and Jane’s Mid-Century Modern Makeover!! (Before & After Pics)

This one was fun!! The 3597 Eaglerock Dr. already had GREAT BONES and sits on one the most coveted lots in the Mid-Century Modern neighborhood of NORTHCREST! The lot is over an ACRE and the gardens have been loved and nurtured over the years to provide some of the most spectacular fruits and flowers!

Mr. and Mrs. Dingler lived and loved this house for close to 30 years and they had the basement dug out by hand to create a wonderful large office where Mr. Dingler could keep track of their day to day finances. The clean Mid-Century Modern lines of this house were left intact while we decided to go with a more modern gray color pallet for the outside and cool whites and blues for the interior. Wood Floors were added as well as a completely new kitchen and baths. All the electrical was updated along with some hip contemporary lighting that had a MCM twist. The copper plumbing is new and the “shag” a.k.a frieze carpet in the den added an element of cozy-class. The original hood-vent, which previously displayed an electric fireplace was left for the new owners to decide what they wanted to do with it. Some people like it some don’t. I personally think it gives the home a more original feeling and keeps in line with how the builders/ designers wanted it back in the 1960′s (but to each his own).

Northcrest was featured in the Atomic Ranch issue last winter. If you are interested in finding out more about this article please email me and I’ll send you a copy! Interested in finding out where to buy Mid-Century Modern Original pieces? Check out City Issue, Antique Factory and Highland Row!!

Enjoy looking at the dramatic changes and please forward to your friends and/or family who is looking for their very own Mid-Century Modern Home to call their own. This house is for sale and offered at $300,000.
