Feature Friday: Atlanta House Rebuilt

You might remember that I featured Lynn’s house a couple of times now, they are the family who lost their house to a fire 2 years ago and they’ve now been back in the newly built house for a year now.

Hard to believe! Lynn’s done a lot in the last year getting the majority of her basic bones furniture in place, but she still has more to do on adding accessories and artwork. I can’t imagine having to replace most everything, like Lynn has had to do. I know she is breathing a sigh of relief that this year is behind her too.

Front door

Coming in the front door, it’s a beautifully built home, with lots of moldings and details. I’ll just let you enjoy the pics for the most part, as they are self explanatory.

dining room

Dining room. Lynn had this rug already, so is using what she has until she can get what she wants. All the furniture is new.

Check out the beautifully detailed moldings on the doorways.

Tall armoire anchors between the windows. She still has lots of soft goods to fill in like drapes, pillows and more rugs.

Love the set of antique doors on that side of the room.

Stairs going to basement.

Ikea sofas basement

She’s purchased Ikea Ektorp slipcovered sofas and chairs for this downstairs sitting area. No need to spend a fortune on all the furniture in a tucked away area like this.

wine cellar

They even have a wine cellar. Love that door!

wine cellar 2

Her builder added these to hold their wine.

basement entry table

Downstairs entry way.

apartment downstairs

They also have a downstairs apartment that they are finishing up and Lynn’s inlaws will be moving in with them. I think that’s a great idea for aging parents to have that option.

apartment kitchen

It’s almost finished and they should be moving in in a few months. Kitchen area. There’s a separate bedroom and bath here too. A very nice apartment.

basement rec room

In the other part of the basement, this large rec room holds a pool table, bar and Home theater.

basement bar

sconce

Bar sconces

Home theater

Theater area, how nice is that?

entire basement

It’s a huge space and I’m sure their family enjoys it all, along with friends.

outdoor patio

Outside, they have a small, but adorable backyard patio.

seating outside

With seating and a stone fireplace, perfect for entertaining.

small pool

Not to mention, a small pool to take a dip in on hot summer days. How fun!

outdoor chairs

Chairs beside the pool.

waterfall

Complete with a waterfall.

What a beautiful home this is! Congrats, Lynn on getting back in your home and adding your furniture, it’s all gorgeous! Hope you all enjoyed seeing the update at Lynn’s house.

    What a beautiful home! I have the same wicker dining chairs and farmhouse table in my house, my husband built the table, it’s similar to the Pottery Barn one . Can you by any chance tell me the color of your kitchen island? I’ve been thinking about painting mine and I just love it. Great job on everything!

    The wall color is Ramie SW6156, trim Nacre SW6154, and ceiling color is Rice Grain SW6155. Don’t you just love the
    paint color names…the island cabs are painted the darkest of the three colors and then they added a black glaze.

      Oh, the island looks like a blue grey color in the photos but aren’t Rice Grain and Ramie tans?

      I believe the black glaze over the tan is giving it a “grey” appearance/color. Just like when you mix black and white and get grey. It’s beautiful!

    Can you please tell me where the front entry doors were purchased? If you have a style number, that would be wonderful.
    Thank you

      HI, Heather, so sorry, but that is a house I featured and I don’t have any info on the doors or any of the other things.
