The four column portico which presents the front entrance of this Buckhead estate home is a signature feature of one of Atlanta’s most well known architectural firms. The partnership of Ernest Ivey and Lewis Crook is well known and often mentioned in the history of Atlanta architecture, being responsible for many notable homes, churches, and school buildings. Not a single aspect of the firm’s tedious attention to detail has been omitted from the materials, finishes, and embellishments of this marvelous home.
Situated on nearly two acres in the heart of Buckhead, the estate features a private guest house separated from the main house by a brilliantly understated brick and stone pool. Mature trees provide both privacy and shade, but still allow views of the Buckhead skyline. The acreage and location of the main house provide a quiet serenity reminiscent of the storied southern estate homes that contribute to the inspiration behind it’s design.
At nearly 7,000 square feet, the five bedroom, five bathroom home easily accommodates spacious living and entertainment areas. The entrance, flanked by large formal dining and living rooms displays examples of the design details of this home which give it an aristocratic flair. Elaborate moldings and pediments for the entrances, built-ins and floor to ceiling triple hung windows abound in these three beautiful rooms.
The living room has a fireplace, as does the family room which presents itself as you move further into the home and displays the slate covered rear patio complete with an intricate wrought iron screen enclosure. The professional kitchen features stainless steel appliances and granite counters, a sous chef island and an adjoining breakfast nook and butler’s pantry.
The main level of this home also contains the master suite and a large family room with a fireplace. The master suite indulges with with large walk in closets, dual vanities, a marble garden tub and a marble and glass shower enclosure. The second level of the home offers four additional bedrooms and a large room perfectly suited for an office or study.
The central Buckhead location of this fine southern estate home allow easy access to all of Atlanta’s major attractions, restaurants and entertainment. The area is served by highly rated educational institutions, both public and private.
This is an opportunity to own a piece of Atlanta history, and a fine example of the iconic commitment of an Atlanta architectural pioneer.
