Offered for the first time since its original owner in 1945, this extraordinary 4-bedroom, 3-bath estate presents a truly once-in-a-generation opportunity to own one of the most breathtaking and iconic properties in all of Sandy Springs. Spanning over 5 pristine acres and ideally positioned just minutes from Buckhead and Brookhaven, this secluded woodland sanctuary feels worlds away—yet remains effortlessly connected to the best of Atlanta living. As you wind down the gravel driveway, the city disappears behind you. What unfolds is nothing short of magical: a natural wonderland blanketed by a property-wide tree canopy and home to more than 1,000 plant varieties, including old-growth azaleas, cherry trees, walnut trees, camellias, Japanese magnolias, black locusts and maples—each one adding texture, color, and heritage to this remarkable landscape. At the heart of the property lies a network of nearly one mile of hand-crafted moss-covered walking trails, carefully designed and lovingly shaped by the original owner’s own hands. The result is a storybook setting unlike anything else in Atlanta—an enchanting, almost mythical retreat where nature and history are woven together with rare artistry. Whether you choose to reside in the charming, rustic home or bring to life a custom luxury residence that honors the natural grandeur of the site, the possibilities here are limitless. With complete privacy, unparalleled tranquility, and an existing inground pool ready to be reimagined, this estate offers a once-in-a-lifetime canvas for those seeking a legacy property of exceptional character. Homes of this stature, on land of this scale, in a location of this caliber, simply no longer exist. This is your invitation to create something timeless—an enduring masterpiece in one of Atlanta’s most prestigious and beloved communities.
