There is a quiet, exclusive street tucked away in the heart of Buckhead where only a few grand estates confidently and luxuriously provide serenity, security and an oasis to a select few. The homes here rarely come to market – and now the iconic home at 3915 The Highlands NW is available for purchase.
A graceful sophistication is evident beginning with the initial entry through the tall, antique pair of front doors, through the house and into the exquisite back patio, pool, and gazebo areas – a trademark of the luxurious homes designed by Bill Harrison. As you enter the large foyer, the elegant and open space commands your attention to its arched doorways, art niches, crown moldings, curved staircase and grand chandelier. From this place, natural flow for entertaining begins as guests can be led to the formal dining room, lovely white living room, the walnut-paneled library with a fireplace or into the more casual family room. An exceptional detail in the entry foyer are the tall, hidden pocket doors into some of the rooms. Each of these rooms is bathed in light, especially in the formal living room, where soaring, two-story windows inspire grandeur, complemented by a beautiful fireplace.
One of the favorite aspects of this home by the current owners is the open, professional kitchen designed for chefs. In this kitchen, double sinks, a six-burner stove and warming ovens all provide the perfect setting for creating a gourmet meal. In addition to the large central island, the adjoining breakfast room enjoys scenic views through windows on three sides. There is an extra-large butler’s pantry and a kitchen that serves both the family and separate dining room – and can be closed off from either or both through its serving windows and doors.
The master suite is on the second floor. Arched doorways and a vaulted ceiling add a dimension of roominess to this space that already hosts a separate, full-size sitting area with fireplace and built-ins. With two master closets and a private balcony, this is the ideal retreat. Two additional bedrooms with full bathrooms are across the landing, and down the hall is another large room and half bathroom over the three-car garage along with a spacious laundry room.
The terrace level is the alter ego of the main floor of this estate. Filled with creative entertainment space, it includes a gym, wine cellar, wet bar/kitchen, a large bedroom and full bathroom, plus a daylight den with a half bathroom. The den has an existing DJ booth and is also wired for home theater use with optional blackout curtains to complete the scene. The den also opens directly to the patio and backyard with fire pit area.
French doors lead from the main level den and breakfast room to the incredible outdoors. Professional gardens surround a resort-like swimming pool, patio and gazebo. There is ample room for entertaining in this privately ensconced paradise.
