This inviting family home in desirable Tuxedo Park is just a stone’s throw from Chastain Park with an unbelievable backyard! With a stately setting on a hill above Blackland Road, the home features a circular driveway for easy access and guest parking, and a rear motor court behind a motorized gate. The extra deep 1.19 acres features a flat backyard with a walk-out swimming pool and spa, pool house, a stone patio with a fireplace, and plenty of room for play and sports activities.

Inside the pool house you will find a large open living space with a dry sauna, custom cabinetry with a sink, and a full bath. This space could easily serve as a studio suite with a 5th bedroom. The pool terrace has plenty of room for recreation and a picturesque poolside pergola with additional seating. A breezeway connects the home to the garage on the main level.

Main Level

Originally built in 1948, the home has been updated and expanded to accommodate modern family life and entertaining. Inside, the home retains warmth and charm, although the open living spaces and floorplan offer a more contemporary feel. The entry foyer provides access to the breakfast room and living room, plus the kitchen and a powder room beyond the main staircase.

The fireside formal living room introduces you to the wide-open living spaces. The living room is open to the dining room, and provides sight lines all the way through to the backyard, but the spaces are separately defined. An adjacent private study makes the perfect home office.

A wall of glass doors connects the dining room to a brick terrace outside, and a large cased opening leads into the cozy family room with a great built-in wet bar, a marble fireplace, and open sight lines into the kitchen bringing in an abundance of natural light and verdant views.

The very spacious kitchen is lined with custom cabinets and designed around a large central island with counter seating, and a walk-in pantry provides even more storage. There is a separate breakfast room just off the kitchen. A home management office is nestled adjacent to the powder room and the main floor laundry room.

Primary Bedroom

The primary bedroom suite occupies the entire rear corner of the home, with large windows on three walls, high ceiling, a cozy marble fireplace, and convenient access to the rear staircase. The master bath features dual vanities, a soaking tub, large separate shower, and a generous walk-in closet and dressing room.

Upper Level

Upstairs you’ll find three bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Two of the bedrooms share a Jack & Jill bath, and the other has a private ensuite bath. The rear staircase near the primary bedroom wing connects to a bonus room that was originally a sleeping porch. This space makes for a great nursery, play room, or home office hideaway.

Terrace Level

The rec room on the terrace level was built for entertaining family and friends of all ages! This large finished space has a fireplace and a small kitchenette, with plenty of room for a game room and a second family room. There is a full bath on this level, as well as a second laundry room and a walkout terrace that connects to the backyard area.

Tuxedo Park

Tuxedo Park is the undisputed top-shelf neighborhood in Buckhead. The rich history of this area goes deeper than many residents may realize. This early Atlanta suburb was only woods and farmland at the beginning of the 20th century, but that quickly changed. Wealthy Atlantans began building homes along Paces Ferry around 1904, many used as summer or country estates with farm animals and extensive gardens. Tuxedo Park expanded North several blocks from there and has kept its refined Southern elegance ever since.

The Tuxedo Park Civic Association holds social events, hires private security officers, and generally keeps the neighborhood connected despite the mostly gated and secluded estates. With its historic mansions and picturesque landscaping, Tuxedo Park is aptly named for this sophisticated neighborhood of magnificent residences. Some of the finest estates in Buckhead are located in the prestigious Tuxedo Park neighborhood.

Although the city of Atlanta has grown to surround this once-remote area, the neighborhood still maintains an aura of seclusion and escape. The manicured grounds and varied architecture of the homes give the neighborhood a formal air befitting its name.

Chastain Park 

Homeowners here will enjoy all that Chastain Park has to offer year-round. Chastain Park is Atlanta’s largest city park, and known by all as Buckhead’s premier park. The wide variety of competitive and recreational activities and entertainment venues hosted by Chastain Park include a swimming pool, a musical amphitheater where both pop and classical musicians entertain audiences outdoors, an arts center, tennis, gymnasium, walking trails, playgrounds, softball diamonds, a golf course and even a horse park – all of which appeal to athletic types and Sunday morning strollers alike.

The Chastain restaurant offers “refined comfort food” for residents and visitors alike in a beautiful setting across from the park.
