Stunning and sophisticated...this wonderful, one-of-a-kind, executive home brings together everything coveted and desired in a sanctuary from today's hectic world. In a style reminiscent of "Architectural Digest" and "Fine Gardening", this residence has been re-invented, re-imagined, and re-invigorated to the most discriminating of standards and with an eye towards upscale, traditional living. The main floor provides expansive living spaces including a traditional living room; formal dining room (accommodating twelve); a spacious, gourmet kitchen; and the crown-jewel...a spectacular family room with soaring ceilings, sun-drenched windows, and cozy fireplace. The gracious master suite is also located on the main level with an additional secondary bedroom/nursery which currently functions as a private office. Rich crown moldings, hardwood floors, and four gas fireplaces (in the breakfast area, formal dining room, family room, and terrace-level art studio), all combine with traditional architectural features and designer elements to create a sense of style character, warmth, and charm in this very special residence. The main level opens to a wonderful grilling deck with ample space for outdoor living or dining. Upstairs, the home boasts three full bedrooms : one includes a private, en suite bath while the two remaining bedrooms directly access another well-appointed bath. The terrace level offers a second home office, gym area, guest bedroom with full bath, full flex space with kitchenette (currently used as an artist studio), laundry facilities, and an oversized workshop. The three-car garage is quite spacious with additional storage. Lush, professionally designed, and landscaped gardens provide additional outdoor living and entertaining spaces while creating beautiful vistas from the residence's interior. There is also a personal putting green for the golf enthusiast. This home is designed for gracious entertaining or for intimate family get-togethers. Truly, words can not describe the beauty, charm, comfort, and graciousness this home affords. Check out the photos and don't miss this rare opportunity to own one of Atlanta's masterpiece homes. Driveway exists onto Ivy Lane (a cul-de-sac). Please note it is believed that the public records do not reflect the appropriate square footage of the home.
