MELANIE TURNER
Alrighty then....Monday morning. Did you watch the Grammys? Favorite performance was Annie Lenox....when I grow up can I be her? She is just so cool sporting that short hair and singing her heart out.....Rock Star.
Over the weekend I went on The Cathedral Tour of Homes. We were having epic weather here in Atlanta [almost 70 degrees] so it was crowded!
The first home I saw was this one....

The Calhoun House which was built in 1923.
The architect was Philip Shutze who also designed the famous Swan House in Atlanta.
6 bedrooms, 7 baths and over 10,000 square ft, this home was recently bought by designer Melanie Turner and her husband [builder] Stan Benecki. They are only the 3rd owners.
Can you even?
The back...

OMG....Melanie can I come over for coffee so you can tell me your plans?
You guys know her right?

Here is a review for your pleasure....





Major talent.
Im feeling stalkerish towards her:)
Here are some older images I found of the house online.

The ballroom...

Dining room

The ceilings in this room were incredible....

I mean these doors and this fireplace!


If you are curious for more history of this home go here
I wish we could have taken pictures as they have already done quite a bit of renovating.
Ill let you know when Mel and I start hanging out.
