As the weather cools and holidays approach, a home that comfortably accommodates family gatherings and eventful entertaining is on everyone’s mind. What follows is a collection of homes that boast spacious floor plans complete with thoughtful, cozy design. From incredible kitchens and dining rooms to outdoor entertaining areas and grand great rooms, these homes offer everything a homeowner could ever want.
This dreamy home in the heart of North Chattanooga provides luxury living only minutes from downtown. Its residents and their guests can enjoy respite from the everyday without sacrificing proximity to the city’s many shopping, dining, and recreational amenities.
Welcoming steps lead visitors inside the home and toward its main living area. Here, large windows and soaring 10-foot ceilings work in harmony with an open concept layout to create an easy flow between rooms. A cohesive monochromatic design, complemented by warm hardwood floors, serves as an elegant backdrop for any occasion.
In the kitchen, the cabinetry lineup is able to accommodate tableware storage while ample counter space and a gorgeous marble island make room for meal prep. Refreshments can be prepared at a butler’s pantry next to the kitchen while a built-in desk area is perfect for party planning. The kitchen overlooks the spacious living room, keeping hosts connected to conversations. Rounding out the main living area is the dining room, defined by wide doorways and wooden ceiling beams.
A private outdoor haven awaits upon stepping into the backyard, poised for entertaining no matter the season. Company can cozy up by the large fireplace in the wintertime and relax in the water come summer. The custom saltwater pool features a sun shelf, waterfall, and large integrated spa, while the covered seating area’s grill and TV plugin will certainly excite football fans.
The basement houses a studio apartment with a private entry convenient for overnight guests. Its full-size kitchen and bathroom and designated spaces for sleeping, dining, and entertainment will make guests feel right at home. Plus, the connecting two-car garage comes with a pet washing station for those with furry friends in tow. The home’s upper level provides additional accommodations with four bedrooms and two bathrooms, while the master suite is quietly tucked away at the front of the house.
