Set within Buckhead’s established Rivermeade neighborhood, 2968 Rivermeade Drive offers the rare combination of meaningful acreage, waterfront setting, and everyday livability just minutes from the city’s most desirable destinations. Positioned on approximately 1.2 acres and directly on the neighborhood lake, the property enjoys peaceful water views, its own dock, and a setting that feels more like a private retreat than an in-town address. Originally constructed in the early 1970s and thoughtfully expanded over time, the home offers more than 5,000 square feet with five bedrooms and generous gathering spaces designed for both relaxed daily living and entertaining. Large windows and multiple living areas connect naturally to the outdoor spaces, while the floor plan supports flexibility for modern lifestyles — home office, guest accommodations or recreation. The outdoor environment is a defining feature. A newly constructed pool and spa overlook the water, creating a true backyard destination for both quiet mornings and evening entertaining. The gently sloping grounds lead to the lakefront and private dock, offering opportunities for fishing, kayaking, or simply enjoying the view. Mature trees and established landscaping enhance privacy while preserving the character Rivermeade is known for. Rivermeade is valued for its non-through streets, walkable feel, and close-knit community atmosphere — all while remaining moments from top private schools, Buckhead shopping and dining, and major business corridors. For buyers seeking space, waterfront living, and long-term upside inside the perimeter, this property presents a compelling opportunity to enjoy immediately or personalize over time within one of Buckhead’s most enduring residential settings.
