This house rests far from street view, shielded by five other homes which sit like sentinels protecting the sanctity of this home. Classic French provincial architecture appears at the end of a long and dignified drive surrounded by beautifully wooded and perfectly manicured grounds. As you arrive home each day you will feel like you are driving into a Hollywood movie set save for one notable exception. This is not a movie, this is your home.

The floors of the main level vary from light and dark marble to differing patterns of hardwoods. Exposed beams appear in the ceiling of the kitchen and sun room and elegant crown moldings grace the formal living and dining rooms. The home features a distinctive stacked stone fireplace underneath the cathedral ceiling of the great room flanked on either side by French doors leading to the rear grounds. Two additional marble fireplaces are contained in the den and living room. Large windows throughout the main level invite sunlight into the home as well as providing beautiful views of the grounds.

The kitchen features custom cabinets, granite counters and a marble backsplash. A large central island with a stainless steel counter and integrated professional grade appliances are also featured in a stylish and beautifully designed kitchen. The kitchen is open to the sun room which also features juxtaposed French doors.

The spacious master suite is located on the main level and contains a separate sitting area in a window surrounded alcove and whitewashed ceiling beams. The master suite contains two bathrooms both with custom cabinets and artistic marble counters. One bathroom features a spa-inspired tile shower enclosed in glass and the second a vintage style soaking tub. There are four additional bedrooms on the second level, one of which is en suite with dual vanities and a marble tiled, spa-inspired shower.

A detached two-car garage sits adjacent to the home. A guest suite over the garage contains a spacious den with a vaulted ceiling. The rear patio of the home is embellished with stone paving tiles and provides one of several relaxing sitting areas in the lush, green backyard.

Though the area is geographically just north of Buckhead it has always displayed a unique personality unlike any other Atlanta neighborhood. Chastain Park is a hub of cultural activity, eclectic dining and shopping options, and commercial activity. In an area of the city distinct from any other, the home at 537 Hillside Drive NW in Atlanta, Georgia knows no equal.
