Midtown condo's artwork rivaled only by its city views

When Stephen Wells decided to move from his north Buckhead house, he looked for a home that was convenient to work and had a walkable neighborhood.

He also needed a place that could showcase his 50 pieces of art, made up of photographs, painting, sculptures and more.

This 2,300-square-foot condo in Midtown, with three bedrooms, three baths and lots of wall space, filled all of his needs.

Now, Wells can take MARTA when he is working at the Northside Hospital campus in Sandy Springs, and he walks to Piedmont Park for farmers markets and weekly tennis matches.

He chose this specific unit on the 31st floor because it had enough wall space for art and floor-to-ceiling windows that provide day-to-night city views.
