In 2014, it was Swann Ridge. In 2015, it was on the lake in Grange. And this year, the Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Serenbe Designer Showhouse takes visitors to the three-bedroom penthouse in Grange’s new Textile Lofts.
“This is the third designer showhouse Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles has produced at Serenbe, and the Textile Lofts are a definite departure both in size and aesthetic,” AH&L editor-in-chief Elizabeth Ralls told The Editor At Large website. “What ultimately drew us to this project is the way this building lends itself to creativity.”
The building is modeled after a turn-of-the-century textile mill and the penthouse features 16-foot Roman arched windows providing unparalleled bird’s-eye views of Serenbe Stables, Serenbe Farms and Grange Lake. The space includes three spacious bedrooms, a gourmet kitchen with top-of-the-line appliances and a series of shared and private outdoor living spaces that include a copper spa. Designed by J. Ryan Duffey and built by Morgan Construction, the Textile Lofts pair the textile-mill structure and modern amenities to create the ultimate urban residential experience in Serenbe.
Featuring 15 designers, including Susan Hable Smith, Melanie Davis Design and Steve McKenzie, the showhouse benefits the Art Farm at Serenbe, which sponsors and hosts artist dinners and cocktail events. It is also where The Serenbe Institute’s first two artist cottages live, designed by Rural Studio and programmed by AIR Serenbe. Proceeds from this year’s showhouse will go toward building another artist cottage at The Art Farm.
The Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Serenbe Designer Showhouse opens Friday, Sept. 9, but you can get a sneak peek of the Textile Lofts Penthouse and meet the designers at the Showhouse Preview Party on Thursday, Sept. 8, at 7 p.m.
