"Hardrath House" - An Architecturally and Historically Significant Atomic Ranch. Howard Hardrath was an avid follower of Joseph Eichler and a driving force in developing/building Northcrest subdivision. When he had an opportunity to buy this double lot (1.2 acres) in Sagamore Hills, in what was then one of the most premiere suburbs of Atlanta, he began to dream this home into existence. One of the hallmarks of Mid Century Modern design is the flow between the interior and exterior spaces and Howard saw this lot as a perfect opportunity to put this concept into practice as well as to create the Atomic Ranch of his dreams, where he was able to allow form to follow function. In 1955, he had the vision to see how this property would be able to not only create that blend between interior and exterior but also how this could be a place to build community by creating a space for neighbors and friends to gather. The perfect location for garden parties with cocktails being served by the bartender, string quartets playing to the side and conversation flowing. In true modernist philosophy, the setting is just as important as the design. Hardrath lived there for 60 years until he died at the age of 98.
