Description

An Architectural Jewel with French Countryside Poise. This exceptional residence, conceived in 1967 by architect J.S. Garrison, was crafted to echo the quiet elegance of an 18th-century French millhouse. Set on over two private acres in Sandy Springs, it combines authenticity, craftsmanship, and refinement in a way few properties ever achieve. The interiors unfold with a sense of balance and sophistication. A kitchen that marries old-world charm with modern precision offering a Sub-Zero refrigeration, AGA stove, copper sink with Rohl fixtures sits at the heart of the home. The primary suite on the main level is more akin to a private wing; an office, laundry, oversized walk in closet, and a marble-finished bath with freestanding tub & Newport Brass fixtures. Throughout, antique cremone hardware, original herringbone brick, exposed beams, and bespoke tilework give the home its layered texture and timeless patina. Upstairs, four generously scaled bedrooms each reveal their own character, while the lower level offers brand new travertine tile throughout and a newly added full bathroom that would make a perfect teenage suite, media room, or exercise room, including lots of storage. A detached guesthouse with full bath completes the picture. Outdoors, the property opens seamlessly for entertaining and leisure; a trellised courtyard, covered patio, and outdoor kitchen overlooking expansive lawns with space for a pool or gardens. Currently, the grounds host a private junior basketball court. Five bedrooms, four full baths, and powder room within the main structure are joined by a guest suite with full bath above the garage. The result is an estate of enduring elegance situated in the heart of Atlanta. This beautiful residence offers a rare balance of intimacy and grandeur, wrapped in the timeless allure of French country living.
