Standard
3400 square-foot contemporary townhome in Brookhaven, Georgia.
Contractor : Owner Builder
Standard is a contemporary three-level townhome located in Brookhaven, Georgia, developed on a site that previously housed an aging single-family residence. The original structure was removed to allow for a more considered and efficient use of the property, creating a modern urban home that responds to its surroundings while supporting multi-generational living.
The ground floor is organized around open-plan living, with the kitchen, dining, and living spaces flowing together to form the social heart of the home. This level is designed for daily life and entertaining, with strong visual connections and a clear relationship between interior spaces and the outdoor areas.
The second level accommodates three bedrooms, providing comfortable and private spaces for family members or guests. These rooms are carefully arranged to balance separation and accessibility, ensuring the home functions well for both everyday living and longer-term occupancy.
The top floor is reserved for the primary suite, conceived as a private retreat above the rest of the home. This level features an open layout and direct access to decks at both the front and rear, allowing the owners to engage with views, light, and air from multiple directions and creating a sense of escape within an urban context.
To the rear of the property, a detached three-car garage is connected to the main residence and supports an additional in-law suite above. This flexible space allows for extended family living, guests, or future adaptability, reinforcing the project’s focus on long-term usability and thoughtful density within a residential neighborhood.
