996 McLynn Avenue NE, Atlanta, GA 30306

You know that feeling when a home simply fits its neighborhood? Refined yet relaxed. Architecturally distinctive, but deeply livable. Elevated design balanced by the warmth and ease that make Morningside and Virginia Highland so beloved. Another remarkable collaboration between Jackbilt Development and architect/designer Linda MacArthur, this exceptional newer-construction residence was created as a custom home for sophisticated entertaining and comfortable everyday living. Located on popular McLynn Avenue, just moments from the Virginia Highland border, North Highland Avenue and Morningside Village, it offers striking design and genuine walkability to restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques and parks. Architectural presence begins with four gas lanterns, an oversized steel-and-glass pivot door, expansive windows and 10-foot ceilings. Custom millwork, rustic beams, steel-framed doors and three masonry fireplaces create interiors that feel polished yet welcoming. Multiple French doors connect the dining room and adjoining cocktail alcove to the covered front porch, while a dramatic double-sided fireplace wrapped in custom wood paneling anchors the space. Formal and casual living areas flow easily together for gatherings large or small. The kitchen and family room form the heart of the home, featuring custom Keystone cabinetry, an oversized island, marble countertops and a full Thermador appliance suite with separate refrigerator and freezer columns and a six-burner double oven with grill. A walk-in butler’s pantry offers extensive storage, while the adjoining wet bar includes a 60-bottle Thermador wine tower, ice maker and sink. A tucked-away two-desk office or craft room adds valuable flexibility. A four-panel Western Window system opens the rear of the home to a spacious covered porch, professionally designed landscaping, irrigation and a lower-level patio. The built-in Paradise Grills outdoor kitchen includes a 42-inch gas grill, flat top, high-powered side burner, refrigerator and warming drawer. Upstairs, the serene primary suite features softly curved architectural details, dual custom closets and a spa-inspired bath. Three additional ensuite bedrooms provide privacy, while a treetop loft offers flexible space for work, reading or relaxation. The finished terrace level includes a recreation and media room, secondary bar, guest suite, covered patio and exceptional storage. The home is also elevator-ready. A comprehensive Control4 smart-home system integrates speakers, Wi-Fi, security, cameras, smoke detection and televisions throughout. Additional upgrades include automatic Lutron shades in all bedrooms and baths, smart TVs in all bedrooms, the office and terrace room, a Wallbox EV fast charger, Rain Guard gutter covers, professionally built rear porch stairs and regular arborist care.
