Project Overview

The renovation and expansion of 2566 Creekwood Terrace, Decatur, GA is a complete design-build transformation executed by Atlanta Turnkey Construction. This project involved a major structural renovation, foundation reinforcement, and a full second-story addition, followed by a luxury interior build-out and modern exterior redesign.

Originally a single-story brick residence, the home was re-engineered and rebuilt into a modern two-level luxury home, dramatically increasing its square footage, functionality, energy efficiency, and market value — while remaining fully compliant with City of Decatur zoning and building codes.

This project is a showcase of our expertise in:

  • Full home renovations in Decatur & Atlanta

  • Structural additions and second-story expansions

  • Foundation reinforcement and load upgrades

  • Design-build project delivery

  • Luxury interior construction

  • Turnkey construction management

Phase 1: Site Evaluation, Planning & Permitting

Every successful renovation starts with proper planning. Our team began with:

  • Structural assessment of the existing foundation

  • Load-bearing wall analysis

  • Roof and framing evaluation

  • Zoning and setback verification

  • Code compliance review

Architectural & Structural Design

The project design was developed to:

  • Support a full second-story addition

  • Improve spatial flow and ceiling heights

  • Introduce modern architectural proportions

  • Maintain neighborhood compatibility

All architectural and structural drawings were professionally prepared and reviewed.

Permits issued and approved by the City of Decatur, GA.

Phase 2: Demolition & Structural Preparation

Once permits were secured, selective demolition was performed:

  • Removal of the existing roof system

  • Interior demolition for structural reconfiguration

  • Temporary structural supports installed

This phase required precision to protect the original structure while preparing it for vertical expansion.

Phase 3: Foundation Reinforcement & Structural Upgrades

Because the home was being expanded vertically, foundation reinforcement was critical.

Scope of Foundation Work:

  • Structural load calculations

  • Reinforced footings where required

  • Masonry and concrete upgrades

  • Structural tie-ins between old and new construction

This ensured the structure could safely support:

  • Second-story framing

  • New roof loads

  • Open-concept interior layouts

Phase 4: Second-Story Framing & Structural Build-Out

After foundation reinforcement, full framing commenced:

  • New second-floor walls

  • Engineered roof framing

  • Ridge beams and structural headers

  • Floor system integration

At this stage, the transformation became fully visible, converting the original home into a true two-story residence.

Phase 5: Roofing, Sheathing & Weather Protection

The structure was sealed and protected with:

  • High-performance wall sheathing

  • Moisture and air barriers

  • New roofing system

This created a fully dry-in structure, allowing safe and efficient interior construction.

Phase 6: Exterior Architectural Transformation

The exterior redesign focused on timeless, high-end appeal.

Exterior Improvements:

  • Modern farmhouse architectural style

  • Vertical siding accents

  • Updated windows and exterior doors

  • Custom front porch with architectural truss detail

  • Integrated brick and siding finishes

The home now presents as a new luxury residence, while blending naturally into the Decatur neighborhood.

Phase 7: Mechanical, Electrical & Plumbing (MEP) Systems

All systems were fully upgraded:

  • New electrical wiring, outlets, and panels

  • Modern plumbing systems

  • Energy-efficient HVAC designed for two-story living

All systems were installed to current code and passed required inspections.

Phase 8: Luxury Interior Construction & Finishes

The interior was completed with high-end finishes and craftsmanship.

Interior Features:

  • Smooth drywall and premium wall finishes

  • Designer lighting layouts

  • Luxury flooring throughout

  • Custom stair system

  • High-end bathrooms with tile finishes

  • Modern kitchen layout with premium cabinetry

  • Custom trim, doors, and millwork

The result is a bright, functional, and elegant interior designed for modern living.
