Often referred to as the “Beverly Hills of the South,” Buckhead is one of the wealthiest communities in the country. It is home to upscale shopping, dining, and culture, and, as you might imagine, homes. After the Civil War, Atlanta’s northernmost community became a country getaway for the city’s wealthiest families. Many of those estates still stand today, but there are also many new homes built in their image. No matter what neighborhood you choose or whether you want something historic or brand new, you will find hundreds of beautiful and elegant homes here. Take a look at some of the million-dollar listings currently on the market:

The house itself features an open floorplan flooded with natural lighting. The master suite is on the main floor, and upstairs there are four more guest suites. The home has its own pool and pool house and a beautiful lush green yard. It can be yours for $1,890,000.
