Property Description

This unusual “house on the hill” is a gem: a spacious, inviting home offering estate-style privacy and central-city convenience in a wooded enclave in Atlanta’s urban heart. Set on approximately .75 acres with an adjacent lot, this exceptional property offers **dual income-generating potential** through future development and conversion opportunities. Imagine building an ADU (Accessory Dwelling Unit) on the extra lot for a music or art studio, Airbnb, or in-law suite—or creating your own private retreat with a pool or tennis court. A second opportunity is to convert the garage and storage areas into a 3-room studio apartment for rental income or use as groundskeeper/property manager quarters. All uses and improvements are subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and approvals. Completely stripped to the studs and rebuilt in 2016, this architecturally distinctive home showcases modern eclectic design, with towers, bay alcoves, high ceilings, generous closets and storage, and oversized windows that fill the home with natural light. The 4,700+ sq. ft. residence features 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths, quality craftsmanship, hardwood floors, solid wood cabinetry and doors, stone counters, and ceramic tile in all bathrooms. Lighting fixtures and mirrors convey; a fully or partially furnished option is available. The main level welcomes you with a dramatic 2-story atrium foyer, 10-foot ceilings, and an expansive living room centered around a fireplace, with three walls of windows rising to a 20-foot ceiling. The chef’s kitchen, with appliances conveying, flows through a butler’s pantry into a separate dining room with a charming bay alcove. The primary suite occupies its own tower, featuring a 15-foot ceiling, four closets, double vanities, a soaking tub, and a glass shower. Up the winding staircase, the upper-level family room anchors three spacious bedrooms, each connected to bathrooms. The lower level and both garages are fully sheet-rocked for fireproofing and insurance purposes. This level includes a finished playroom, workshop, wine closet, and three walk-in rooms offering flexible space for storage, hobbies, fitness, or potential repurposing. Designed for gracious entertaining, the home features an oversized 25' x 35' pergola deck, ideal for alfresco dining and gatherings, plus a firepit and screened gazebo off the front porch. Outdoor furniture conveys. Beautifully landscaped grounds include more than 100 fir trees lining the perimeter, an ornamental tree orchard, mature 50-foot trees, and over 100 perennials and evergreens. A gated driveway, dramatic dry-stone retaining walls, terraced frontage, and multiple parking areas accommodate approximately 8–10 cars. Illuminated landscaping creates a remarkable estate-like ambiance after dark. Despite its secluded setting, the property is minutes from downtown and Midtown, the airport, restaurants, and shopping. Nearby are a variety of public and charter schools, including options with immersion and baccalaureate programs. Convenient access to three highways makes travel throughout Atlanta easy. A rare opportunity to own an architecturally distinctive property combining privacy, elegance, modern comfort, expansive grounds, and **two potential paths to additional income** in one of Atlanta’s most central locations. Please see the Virtual Tour for a closer look.
