The Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Magazine 2024 Serenbe Showhouse
I’m a Board Member of the Atlanta chapter of the Real Estate Staging Association and this Fall our October meeting took place at the Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles Magazine Serenbe Showhouse. This Victorian style home was part of the new Overlook section of this sustainable community. Serenbe is the brainchild of developer Steve Nygren who had previously developed a bed and breakfast in the area. It’s a planned wellness community located just miles south of the Atlanta-Hartsfield Airport.
Designer & Diy’er pumped up on caffeine and willing to create anything. I want to let women know they can do it and if they don’t want to, I will.
