This masterfully reimagined residence, significantly expanded and meticulously designed by the esteemed Norman Askins just 18 years ago, exemplifies refined living in one of Atlanta’s most desirable neighborhoods. With an artful balance of classic architecture and modern amenities, this home offers a sprawling floor plan tailored for both grand entertaining and everyday living. A gracious entry foyer with exquisite millwork sets an elegant tone, leading to a formal dining room bathed in natural light from an expansive bay window. The study, adorned with beautiful casement windows, provides the ideal setting for a private home office or library. The chef’s kitchen, a centerpiece of the home, features beamed ceilings, a suite of professional-grade stainless appliances, a generous central island, and a discreet scullery equipped with additional appliances. The kitchen flows seamlessly into a vaulted fireside keeping room, a fireside breakfast or living room, and an enclosed fireside sunroom, all opening to the rear veranda featuring a built-in grill and bistro lighting. The main-level primary suite is a tranquil retreat, complete with a fireplace, a marble-clad spa bath with dual vanities, a floating soaking tub, and a frameless glass walk-in shower. Dual closets include a custom wardrobe and a convenient stackable laundry area. À l'étage, four generously proportioned bedrooms boast unique architectural details, while a sprawling bonus room, a crafts room, a morning bar, and a full laundry room ensure unparalleled functionality. The finished terrace level offers a temperature-controlled wine cellar, a spacious guest suite, and a large recreation room, ideal for entertaining or relaxation. The private backyard is a natural oasis, featuring a resort-quality pool and spa, lush green spaces, and multiple hardscaped terraces perfect for outdoor dining and leisure. Nestled in the prestigious Whitewater Creek neighborhood, this home provides direct access to the East Palisades walking trail, the Chattahoochee River, and is conveniently located near I-75, Truist Park, and within the sought-after Jackson Elementary district. This residence is a true testament to enduring craftsmanship and modern convenience, offering an unparalleled lifestyle in a serene, yet accessible, location.
