At the halfway mark, 2024 has already seen the bar raised in many ways for Buckhead real estate. The year started off strong when I sold a home on Knollwood Drive in Tuxedo Park for $9.5 million. The all-cash deal closed on January 17th in a private transaction in which I represented both the buyer and seller. With 11 months left in the year, this home had already topped the highest sale of 2023.

Just six weeks later, that record was eclipsed by a stunning Georgian estate on Riverly Road in the Paces neighborhood, closing at nearly $13 million.

Around that same time, I was putting together the biggest deal of my career. In fact, when it closed for $19,800,000 in April, it became the #1 home sale of all time in metro Atlanta. As you can imagine, Atlanta’s most distinguished home ever sold is unique in the market. It has been described as Scandinavian in style, with a Japanese-inspired flow – highlighting the fact that many of today’s buyers value a more streamlined aesthetic.

More recently, a 1930’s estate at 65 Valley Road traded hands for an even $10 million. This grande dame sits on 9 acres and was originally built by the 3rd president of Coca-Cola, Samuel Candler Dobbs.

Our own Marci Robinson sold the 2023 Holiday Show House for $7,450,000, one of the highest sales ever in Chastain Park. This stunning home came in at #7 on the list.

It has been a fast-paced year for Buckhead real estate with many big deals in the record books. Behind every one of these sales are families that have chosen to call Buckhead home, when they could truly live anywhere in the world! That is a testament to the enduring and growing appeal of the Buckhead community. Here are the top 10 homes sold during the 1st half of 2024:
