2209 Sherwood Avenue
The house was built in the 1920s, but renovations — done by Halley Douglas Homes — wrapped up just before it recently hit the market.
The house is listed at $3.2 million, and it’s on one of Myers Parks’ famed tree-lined streets, dotted with other multi-million dollar mansions.

The address of the listing is 2209 Sherwood Ave. At 5,806 square feet, there are six bedrooms and five and a half bathrooms.
The house — inside and out — is filled with contrast and gorgeous textures. The outside has been painted a moody dark blue, accented with natural-colored stones and black window frames.

It’s all in the details. The textured walls, natural wood shelving, cabinetry and contrasting black accents smartly build visual interest — without being too in your face.
Whether you prefer a more neutral look or are color crazed, the light floors and bright white walls leave room to make the home all your own.
You could keep with the light and airy theme and allow textures and textiles to run the show, or you can incorporate color for a more obviously dramatic and glam look.

I love how the thick crown molding and wainscoting give it timeless character, but fun wallpaper in smaller spaces and geometric light fixtures give it a more modern feel.

The kitchen, which is equally gorgeous as the rest of the house, opens up to the other family gathering and entertaining spaces.

The black tile herringbone fireplace might be one of my favorite details. It’s glamorous and cozy all at the same time.

The fire place in the home office is beautiful, too. Can you imagine working with a wood fire crackling? Dreamy.

If you’re not in love with this place already, check out the pool. It’s pretty and practical — summer weather in the South lasts way longer than the defined season.
