Atlanta Hawks player Dewayne Dedmon picked up a new property in Encino this autumn. Dedmon—who plays center for the team—paid $3.29 million for the contemporary farmhouse-style residence. The recent build that was completed only months ago.

The five-bedroom house’s streetside impression intrigues a little by virtue of a simple cosmetic flourish: a cardinal red door against a black-on-white background. Not a recent design innovation by any means, but in this case the dash of color is rather strikingly invitational and curiosity-inducing against the staid and utilitarian architecture of the style.

Inside, the 4,500 square-footer develops quickly as an engineered contemporary statement. Natural-toned plank floors and trim are juxtaposed with a few distinctly glamorous textural touches, most notably the semi-deco fireplace accent wall in the living room, the office ceiling, the shingle-like kitchen backsplash, and the glitzy gold-speckled ceiling in the dining room. In like spirit, the bedrooms and bathrooms all hold textural surprise of their own.

Pocketing glass doors open to the patio, where a pool and spa with a waterfall feature is the centerpiece of the backyard. A home theater, a covered indoor/outdoor living area, and a grille station are among the amenities of this new property.
