This stately Greek Revival in the heart of Atlanta's prestigious Buckhead is one of the city's historic crown jewels. Originally built in 1926, it underwent a massive renovation and expansion by the Garrett Group that spanned some 10 years. Architect Laura Howard did well in updating many facets of the home so that it complements today's modern way of living without compromising the integrity of its original architectural style. Known as "White Oaks", the exceptional brick residence is situated on nearly four acres of land about 15 minutes outside of Atlanta's downtown district. It boasts a grand footprint and a number of staircases where one can seamlessly move about from one wing to the other.
It features approximately 12,755 square feet of living space with six bedrooms, seven full and four bathrooms, foyer with floating staircase, an elevator, great room with fireplace, formal dining room, a butler's pantry, eat-in gourmet kitchen, a separate catering kitchen with commercial-grade appliances, a breakfast room, two-story family room with fireplace and library above, a home office with fireplace, sun room, upper level sitting and media rooms, lower level wine cellar and tasting room, billiards room, an exercise room with separate sauna and steam shower, and much more. There is also a separate caretakers quarters and garage parking for six cars. Outdoor features include a gated entrance, a porte-cochere, motor court, front portico, open and rooftop terraces, patios, expansive formal gardens, reflecting pool and fountains, a rotunda, swimming pool with spa, cabanas, and a BBQ kitchen.
