This house is approx. 3,300 sq.ft. with four bedrooms, three and a half baths. The home features a spacious open floor plan, one story build, study and  media room. If you're in the Auburn area, please visit us June 1st and 2nd and June 8th and 9th. The home is located at 1685 Alex Avenue, Eastlake Subdivision, Auburn. We hope to see you soon! 


The fresh, airy crisp color scheme of whites, greys, and taupes makes this
 home a unique find in the Eastlake Subdivision.



The hardwood flooring features a distinctive heathered grey finish.





The Butler's Pantry, connecting the kitchen and dining room, offers convenience for serving
                                                             and plenty of storage for those extra holiday platters.                     


                                                  The office, located off the foyer is highlighted with a coffered ceiling.



Furniture in this home has been graciously lent to us by Johnson Furniture Company, Eclectic AL.

The Master Bedroom is spacious, large enough for a sitting area!


The Master Bath features double vanities, a jetted tub, and a walk-in shower with multiple
water points!






Guest bedrooms were furnished with boys in mind (I wonder why ;) !






The covered back porch and grilling area consists of concrete pavers.

Projects in Process!


IE Designs is hard at work on some beautiful projects! While some are still in the middle of the building process, others are in their finishing touches, almost ready for the homeowners to move in! Take a Sneak Peek at some of our custom home projects that are under construction before we reveal the beautiful finsihed product!

Under Construction...  

This home belongs to clients who love crisp whites, neutrals, and a chic design with traditional elements.





This bold entryway leads to beautiful french doors, that give a straight through view to the fall leaves in the backyard!


Right off the entry, the living room features big arched windows and a vaulted ceiling to add archectural detail, the bedrooms in the house also have these details. 


As you enter the family room, a row of french doors line the back door to allow plenty of natural lights, views of nature and easy access to the outdoor patio.

This long loft  upstairs will serve as the homeowners bonus room, a space that can be used for anything!


This outdoor fireplace is a perfect touch for a summer or winter fire with friends! We love the herringbone brick inlay in the center! 

Most of the bedrooms are enhanced with large, arched windows to add detail, dimension, and a beautiful view to wake up to!

_________________________________________________________________________
This is currently our largest project, close to 10,000 sq.ft! Our client has a very specific, elegant taste as you can see by the vast amount of details and rock work. 

Right off the entry, these large windows fill the formal living room. The clients grand piano will be beautiful against this window!
                           

The Master bedroom hosts an ornate ceiling that takes the eye up and livens the space! 




This keeping room will get a lot of use from the family, as it's right off the kitchen, so function is a key component to this area.
The Family Room hosts 20 ft. high ceilings, and a grand fireplace! This room will be finished with beautiful furniture pieces and fabrics that will tie in the rest of the home.

Traveling downstairs, the basement will transform into a game room with a pool table, living area, full kitchen, shuffle board, and home theater! 

Inside the movie theater will be three levels of theater seating, fabric covered walls for acoustics, enhanced lighting and a media closet! 

One of two outdoor living areas, with a fireplace, gathering area, and dining areas.


Putting on the Finishing Touches....


This home is just about finished and ready for the homeowners to move in! 

We love the custom cabinetry, lanterns, and contrast of wood stains throughout this elegant kitchen! 

Perfect size built in's in the family room for a display area as well as convenient storage. 

Laundry is a little more fun with this blue cabinetry, and hefty amount of storage space! 

The powder bath displays a chic vessel sink, cabinetry, and sconces to brighten the space... literally! 


You have to love a calming Master Bath! This one infuses cool colors on the wall and fixtures, with warm cabinets and counters!

The chandelier dresses up the master tub area, which adds to the relaxing atmosphere!


Who doesn't love a nice porch swing on a crisp Alabama evening!

_________________________________________________________________________

There are touches of sophistication all over this house, perfect for any homeowner to move into!


The dining right off the entry is a focal point of the house, with moulding, large windows, and an iron chandelier.

Each bath is equipped with detailed custom cabinetry in various stains and styles!


We love the elegant gold lanterns in front of the green distressed kitchen cabinets, and intricate stone backsplash!




Up close view of the ornate glass cabinet details.
Jack and Jill Bath cabinets will compliment any color scheme in the guest bedrooms! 

Double master bath cabinet vanities 

The Master Bathroom shower and tub feature various tile and stone patterns that add texture and aesthetics to the space.
