Envision discovering a unique, nearly original mid-century modern architectural gem in Buckhead - the rarest and grandest of its kind - located on a private acre in the prestigious Kingswood neighborhood, adjacent to West Paces Ferry. This stunning residence was meticulously designed by renowned architect Bill Finch in 1958, who is best known for designing Coca-Cola's world headquarters, corporate headquarters, and sports stadiums. The home's scale is refreshingly large, boasting at least 10-foot ceilings and spacious rooms.
The heart of the house features expansive open spaces, adorned with exceptional architecturally designed 14-foot ceilings and clear story windows that allow natural light to flood in. These spaces lead to sprawling decks off the back of the house, providing seamless indoor-outdoor living. Most of the rooms have access to patios, and the hardwood floors throughout create an incredible living environment.
In 2000, the house was restored the house for the current owner, with particular attention to the kitchen and primary bedroom suite. The suite features an oversized dressing room, a vaulted Pecky cypress ceiling in the bedroom and sitting room, and double doors leading to a private patio. The bathroom boasts heated stone floors, a large shower, and separate tub. The kitchen is equipped with cypress cabinets, tumbled travertine heated flooring, and a large walk-in pantry.
The lower level has a gym area, two large light-filled rooms for additional office or play space, and expansive storage rooms. A private walnut study adjoins the primary bedroom suite, offering views of the serene zen gardens. Additionally, there is a meditation/prayer room with ancient wood doors opening to a private patio, heated stone floors, and a dome ceiling that creates exceptional acoustics.
The guest casita is attached to the residence by the carport and features a bedroom/living room with heated stone floors and a full bath. There is ample room for a pool and plenty of privacy. The location is exceptional, just minutes from Buckhead's finest restaurants and Atlanta's top-rated schools. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own an incredible, architecturally designed mid-century modern home - one of its kind in Atlanta.
