Perfectly positioned in the heart of Buckhead and just moments from Atlanta’s most highly regarded private schools, this extraordinary mid-century modern residence represents a truly rare offering—an impeccably renovated architectural showpiece that feels more reminiscent of Palm Springs than Atlanta. Originally constructed in 1962 and only now transferring from its second owner, the home has been masterfully reimagined while preserving the integrity and soul of its iconic design. Situated on a rare cul-de-sac lot spanning nearly half an acre, the property is enveloped by meticulously curated landscaping and exceptional outdoor living spaces. A dramatic entry foyer introduces the residence with soaring vaulted ceilings and terrazzo tile floors, immediately establishing the home’s sophisticated architectural pedigree. The expansive family room showcases vaulted and beamed ceilings, oversized walls of glass, and jumbo sliding doors that seamlessly blur the line between indoors and out. Designed for elevated entertaining and effortless daily living alike, the great room, dining room, and fireside keeping room each open directly to the covered outdoor living pavilion featuring vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and integrated ceiling heaters for year-round enjoyment. The sleek designer kitchen is both functional and visually striking, featuring oversized picture windows overlooking the front gardens, dramatic quartz waterfall countertops, flat-panel cabinetry, and a fully integrated suite of professional-grade stainless steel appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the fireside keeping room, while the central dining room elegantly connects the home’s primary living spaces. The main level offers three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a powder room, and a gracious private office with substantial built-in storage. The stunning primary suite feels like a boutique luxury retreat, complete with dual custom walk-in closets and a spa-caliber bathroom featuring dual vanities, a dedicated makeup vanity, walnut cabinetry, large-format porcelain tile, and an oversized frameless glass shower. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully renovated bathroom with tub and shower. The finished terrace level continues the home’s exceptional design aesthetic with an additional family room, wet bar with wine and beverage refrigeration, gym, laundry room, full bathroom, and additional sliding glass doors opening to the rear grounds. Outdoors, the professionally turfed rear lawn is framed by lush landscaping and enhanced by a private putting green, creating a resort-caliber setting rarely found in Buckhead. Complete with a two-car carport and executed to an extraordinary standard throughout, this is unquestionably one of the finest quality mid-century modern renovations to come to market in Atlanta.
