This private estate has been the treasured home of Coca-Cola Chairman Paul Austin for over fifty years. It is situated on 8.75 acres accessed via a gated entrance.
One of Mr. Austin’s sons reflects on the tranquil nature of the bird sanctuary this estate offers “Shortly after we moved in I saw from the living room a Pileated Woodpecker swoop in and hang precariously on a suet bag we had in a Dogwood tree. I have never seen such an amazing woodpecker before. This home remains to this day a magical nature preserve and wildlife sanctuary in the heart of Buckhead.

Although I don’t live in Atlanta, my parents do and I absolutely LOVE Buckhead. It is the quintessential essence of the South with a perfect mix of urban living. Whenever we go to the mall there, we take a little bit of time to drive by Buckhead and just get inspired. How does this particular home compare to the surrounding area?
