Within a short walk to Chastain Park and set at the intersection of Atlanta and Sandy Springs, this extraordinary estate captures the charm of a 17th-century Dutch manor and combines the essence of historical grandeur with modern luxury. The home’s unique exterior evokes an artful, European flair with a baroque gable gracing the porch entry and playful Oeil de boeuf windows supporting a cast parapet adorned with intricate sun, moon, and star motifs.

Throughout the home, carefully curated details amplify its distinctive character, inviting a sense of refined beauty. Fluted columns and pilasters, crafted from 200-year-old beams, exude a timeless sophistication, while French doors with hand-wrought Juliet balconies add romance. On the main level, an en-suite bedroom serves as a library, where floor-to-ceiling bookcases and a private sauna offer relaxation and inspiration. The primary bath is a sanctuary, anchored by a Sherle Wagner porcelain pedestal sink, polished nickel Waterworks fixtures, and Circa Lighting sconces. An etched 19th-century glass panel completes the space, offering a glimpse into the past with each glance.

Descending the circular staircase to the terrace level, you’ll find a spacious media room and office, framed by an ancient Portuguese arch—a testament to the home’s commitment to preserving architectural heritage. This level also offers a versatile room with a private entrance that can be used as an exercise space or wine cellar, accommodating a variety of lifestyle needs. The aesthetic, with its historic influences, extends outdoors, where the .58-acre grounds are landscaped to reflect the home’s European charm. 

As both a residence and a work of art, this property offers an unrivaled experience of living within history, skillfully interpreted for the modern era. The home’s handcrafted details, distinct architecture, and carefully chosen finishes bring to life an environment that is as inspirational as it is welcoming, embodying the essence of artisanal living for today’s discerning homeowner.
