Own one of the original estates built in the Buckhead Paces neighborhood, rich with timeless architectural details and incredible construction, and effectively brand new thanks to the meticulous modernization and improvements made by the current owners. All 2+/- acres are usable (a rare find in this area), and the home enjoys exceptional privacy as a sanctuary in the middle of the city.
Approaching the home, the craftsmanship in the masonry is obvious. Step inside and marvel at the flood of natural light and endless peaceful views of mature trees and manicured gardens, courtesy of the brand new large windows throughout, and two steel French doors at the entrance. The main floor layout is meant for entertaining, with a graceful flow between the dramatic living room with soaring ceilings and original beams, to the sexy new bar room, to the kitchen – with incredible opportunities for displaying art throughout. The primary suite, while also on the main level, is tucked away and a luxurious respite.
The completely new kitchen with the latest appliances provides an unexpected “wow” factor with an exposed brick wall and circle-shaped skylights letting in even more natural light. Improvements throughout the home include: new roof (50-year warranty), copper gutters, all new Anderson E-Series windows, steels doors, new built-ins, new HVAC, all new light fixtures and lighting, new Sonos and speakers, new hardware, new alarm system, and new gate/gate system.
The “tower” is a whimsical dream, with 3 bedrooms featuring custom murals by contemporary artist Megan McKeithan, whose work has been featured around the world.
The landscaping is remarkable – the plan the current owners and their landscape architect developed nearly 3 years ago is now mature, and creates showstopping views from every angle. Nestled among century-old trees are “outdoor rooms” with their own uses and character — beautifully reconstructed pool, outdoor fireplace, an English garden, historic hydrangeas that make master gardeners swoon, goldfish pond, and versatile spaces for sports and entertaining, plus all new outdoor lighting. For the golfer, the property includes an 8 hole putting green, and 3 chipping tees complete with 2 sand traps.
The current owner is a car enthusiast, and built a fantastic additional 2 car garage for 4 total temperature controlled covered spaces, plus ample parking for 10+ cars.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a significant historical property in Buckhead, while enjoying the easy lifestyle a completely modernized and updated home offers.
