The striking home and manicured front lawn will immediately catch your attention, but there is much more to this 2-acre estate than meets the eye. Located in the desirable Paces Neighborhood, this gated home has the spaces you need while still maintaining a manageable size. A timeless limestone façade, slate roof, and copper gutters are among the beautiful architectural details. Pass through the porte-cochere into the backyard, and you will discover what makes this property so special!
The pool terrace is a grand space for fun and entertaining, with a Pebbletec pool and spa, grilling area, covered cabana, and fire pit. You will catch your first glimpse of your private forest from the pool terrace as you follow the stairs to the large private deck. Continue down the stairs to access an additional level terrace and your own personal nature trails, where you can walk down to a clearing in the forest surrounding a fire pit. While the acreage affords privacy and beautiful views, this is a very low-maintenance lot.

Then, you crest a hill and see the entire Atlanta skyline peeking above the tree line, a reminder that you are a few minutes from just about anywhere in Buckhead, Midtown, or Downtown! This embodies what Buckhead is really about, a wonderful quality of life combined with the conveniences of a modern city at your doorstep … or front gate.
