Brooklyn Decker Put Her Interior Design Skills to the Test with Gut Renovation of Whimsical Charlotte Estate

Actress Brooklyn Decker and retired tennis star Andy Roddick are sharing the vibrant interiors of their Charlotte, NC home with the world—after the extensive home renovation project was “nine years in the making.”The 7,000-square-foot home was built in 1964, and was in rough shape when the couple—who married in 2009—came across it.“One of the rooms had caved in; there was water pouring in through the ceiling,” Decker, 39, told Architectural Digest.However, Roddick, 44, convinced her to take a chance on the property, which had previously only been owned by one family and needed considerable work.“Our home was brought back to life by countless talented artisans and craftspeople in North Carolina," Decker tells Realtor.com®.
