Located in Roswell, Alstead's Donnelly model home features high style and leading edge design. An open, light filled entry with 10 foot ceilings leads to the main living area and opens to a gourmet kitchen that connects easily to the dining room for plenty of entertaining power. A luxurious owner's suite, spacious secondary bedrooms and cozy loft give everyone plenty of private space. The home also impresses with a private work zone tucked behind the hidden bookcase and fully outfitted outdoor entertaining space.

The Tindal model home in Marietta's Meeting Park features high style and leading edge design. A welcoming terrace level entry with adjacent bonus room is ideal for entertaining. Upstairs, a cook's kitchen with waterfall island overlooks the living and dining rooms. A private study makes an ideal work space. A luxurious owner's suite with spa bath and additional bedrooms round out the top floor. Views of the vibrant Marietta Square are a must-see from the home's deck off of the owner's suite.

Woodmont Golf and Country Club's Madison model home in Canton is filled with southern charm. Chefs will appreciate the prep space on the waterfall island and will always be part of the conversation with the connectivity to the keeping, breakfast and living rooms. The private owner's retreat offers an oversized sitting area with morning bar. The fully finished terrace level opens to a stunning outdoor space complete with a private putting green.

A clever and thoughtful design, Meeting Park's logo is a graphic representation of the street map and the streets surrounding the Historic Marietta Square. At the center of the logo is Marietta's Glover Park, the heart of the area and home to festivals and concerts. Spanning out from the central square are the surrounding streets where all of the shops, restaurants and museums are located that further reach out to the location of the neighborhood and uniquely connect to the tagline, "Your corner of the square." The logo allows the sales team to convey the location of Meeting Park and its proximity to everything in a unique and easy to understand way.

The builder also received these two silver OBIE awards:

·         Best Interior Merchandising, Detached Model, $450,000 to $549,900 - Meeting Park, Tindal Model

·         Best Community Information and Sales Center - Meeting Park, Silver Winner
