December 29, 2009

170 High Bluff Court

Do you want a home that looks and feels like a cottage, but need the space of a suburban home? Did you think that was impossible? Visit 170 High Bluff Court in Duluth and you will find your dream home.

Living room

Four bedrooms and four and a half baths take on a whole new dimension. Quality is easily found in the home that is a builder’s personal home, extra touches are what set it apart. The home was originally built in 1997 and has been well taken care of with lots of updates. All new windows have recently been added.

Back Patio and Yard

Inside on the main level you will find beautiful hardwoods in the dining and windows in two living areas with transoms or decorative moldings. A doorway framed by molding and glass separates a family room and dining room. Step back to the kitchen and breakfast room and you will be delighted. Diagonally laid black and white tiled floor, glass front cabinetry, plate racks and a center island painted in an accent color. It feels like you are in a English countryside cottage. Lots of storage and bright light from the windows in the breakfast area will make this one of your favorite places to be.

Side exterior

The master is on the main floor with a connecting bath. The bath has a split vanity with a sitting area between the two sinks. There is a window high above the vanity that allows natural light to flow in.

A separate tub, shower and water closet rounding out the space.

The garage has a suite with a kitchenette area and private bath. What a great area for an au pair or guest suite. If you need other options, think of how much you could accomplish if this was your home office.

Sovereign has many successes in leasing commercial space

December 29, 2009

Sovereign

Regent Partners shared its excitement over Sovereign’s super-successful leasing achievements with the Rooster the other day. Regent has leased close to 90-percent of its commercial real estate space at its luxury high-rise in Buckhead, and the success comes at a time when Buckhead faces historically high class A office vacancy rates.

With more than 500,000 square feet and 50 stories, the mixed-used tower on Peachtree Road in Atlanta’s Buckhead district recently welcomed tenants Asset Preservation Advisors, Crescent Wealth Management and the Law Firm of Weinberg, Wheeler, Hudgins, Gunn, & Dial. Together, these tenants represent more than 80,000 square feet of new occupancy. This follows the very successful November opening of Bistro Niko, Buckhead Life Groups’ newest restaurant, located on Peachtree Road in the building’s retail area.

“We are extremely pleased that we are continuing to experience such strong success on both our commercial and residential sides,” said Regent Partners Principal, David Tennery. “When you look at the current realities of the overall Atlanta real estate market, we are truly blessed to be in the position we are in. We worked hard and took considerable risks in order to deliver a project that could make a long-term difference in the community and it would appear that the strategy, combined with significant determination have indeed been well received by the market.”

Sovereign is located at 3344 Peachtree Road in Atlanta’s prestigious Buckhead area. Homes are offered from $1 million and begin on the building’s 26th story affording penthouse-like views from all residences, and a sky terrace with private residential amenities. The exclusive condominium homes range in size from more than 1,700 square feet to more than 10,000 square feet. Several decorated models are open daily for showings.

For more information about Sovereign, please Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty sales associates Burma Weller or Kevin McBride in the onsite sales center at 404-266-3344 or visit sovereignbuckhead.com.
