It’s no secret that I absolutely love calling College Heights home. If you love your neighborhood grab a cozy sweatshirt and do some good to raise some money for kids in our community. 💕 Contact Jeb or myself if you have any questions!

“When you buy an old house, you have to earn the right to call it your own. The people who once lived there are part of its story, and you can’t just erase them- even if you want to. The foundation of that home isn’t the concrete it’s built in; it’s the souls and the stories and the love embedded there. That’s what makes houses so alive.” -Ben Napier

What an honor it’s been to play a small role in the story that is Skyhaven’s over the years. Historic homes are one of our favorite things in real estate. We love learning about what makes each home alive and the role they play in our community. Then when the time is right we have the opportunity to help close chapters and begin new ones. If you’re curious about historic home ownership we’d love to chat with you!

Skyhaven: 1955 midcentury modern marvel now available!
 
Designed by award-winning architect Joseph Amisano of the firm Toombs, Amisano & Wells in Atlanta, the one-of-a-kind home is constructed of concrete, steel, travertine and glass. Long rumored to have been a creation of Frank Lloyd Wright, the home has become something of a legend in Rome and Northwest Georgia.
 
As you approach Skyhaven through its front gates, the home’s unique layout is immediately apparent. Entering through a large courtyard, the front door opens into a Mies van der Rohe-inspired space. Currently used as a formal living room, the open area at the core of the home could easily be used for dining or other entertaining purposes and functions. To the right, find a chef’s dream kitchen featuring Sub-Zero and Viking appliances, dual sinks, a 10-foot quartz covered island, and custom backsplash. A half bath, over-scale laundry/utility room with additional cabinetry and counter space, and three-car garage complete this wing of the home.
 
Returning to the large open space in the middle of the home, a walk into the opposite direction allows you to view some of Skyhaven’s most unique features. Among the many focal points are a strikingly modern brick fireplace that appears to float between plate glass windows and the original “Skybar”. The bar features a double sink, ice maker and refrigerator—everything needed for the perfect cocktail. Accessible via spiral staircase, a loft with windows on all four sides frame partial views of Downtown Rome and the Coosa Valley. This space also includes its own full bath and could be used as a casual den, playroom, home office or bedroom.

Continually and lovingly renovated by the previous and current owners, Skyhaven remains a respectful interpretation of the original vision.

2022, you were one for the books! I wrote these words a year ago and they ring even more true now:

“In many ways I’m at a loss for words and overwhelmed with gratitude. If you know me in real life you know that I prefer to put my head down and just do the work.

But this. This is worth celebrating. Over 19 million dollars in sales.

Over the last four (now FIVE!) years we’ve learned a TON but the biggest thing would be that we are better together. To our dear friends and clients, THANK YOU. Thank you for trusting us to help you and those you know accomplish those real estate goals. We don’t take it for granted and we are humbled by it. In many ways my words seem inadequate but just know how grateful we both are.”

In addition, this year we were able to make new friends, serve old ones, and link arms with one of our favorite people to serve Rome as a team of three. We won an award we were not expecting and went viral on a house that’s probably not haunted. At the end of the year I’m just so grateful for the opportunities we were presented to love our clients and our city so well this year.

Jeb, I say it every year but I can’t wait to see what’s next. Andy and Luke, thanks for your unwavering support because we couldn’t do this without you both. I’ve especially enjoyed seeing your roles in this partnership evolve with marketing and photography this year. And Mimi, we have loved linking arms with you this year to serve some of your most beloved clients. I can’t wait to see what the three of us tackle next!

And if you’ve got real estate goals for 2023, we’d love the opportunity to serve you and this city we so dearly love!

Today we closed another chapter in the life of this iconic Roman home. Historic homes are near and dear to our hearts! It was an absolute pleasure to play a small part in this home’s storied history.

Never before has one of our listings been featured in news sources like CNBC, TMZ, People, Architectural Digest, House Beautiful, USA Today, the Independent and beyond — making headlines in places as far away as the United Kingdom, Norway, Spain, India and Vietnam!

Our talented clients transformed this home, taking it back to its original c. 1882 glory. The gorgeous showplace is now ready for the new chapter that began this afternoon with a SOLD sign — thanks to this dynamic TTW listing trio!

It may be the Creel House to the rest of the world — but to most Romans it will always be the Claremont House!
