After having the privilege of being the Lady of this beautiful estate for over a decade, I will miss many things about it. The privacy is amazing. The home can't be seen from the road and few in the area know it exists. There is a regal entry gate that affords a sense of security and when it opens, it allows passage into a verdant and peaceful hamlet. Our dogs can roam and not be burdened by fences. Most of the year, I can go out and cut a colorful bouquet as there is always something blooming. I love the hundreds of Daffodils and Lenten Roses in the spring, the Azaleas, Peonies, and Hydrangeas to name just a few. It is always a treat to hunt for mushrooms as there is an abundance of Chanterelles. The deer wander through almost daily. The evenings are lit up by Fire Flies and the frogs, Cicada bugs, and crickets perform a melodious symphony as the dusk arrives. The birds also chime in as the hummingbirds buzz around the deck, an owl hoots at night, hawks soar, ducks, geese, and herons land on the lake. The residence itself is completely unique. It is built in the Old World style with hard coat stucco and venetian plaster interior. A team was flown in from Europe to do the Venetian plaster. It is substantial and timeless as it has so many architectural antiques built into it. Designed by the famous Architect Charles Levinson of Architectural Accents. The house has mantels and mirrors from 18th century France, doors and chandeliers from the same vintage, doors and stairs from London, tiles from England and France. It feels like stepping into Europe into a fine residence. No trips to Versailles or Tuscany required. The fireplace in the keeping room is so cozy on chilly nights and the sunny conservatory is a perfect place to enjoy a quiet read. The acoustics of the piano in the great room are superb. The Holiday decorations in the great room and the twelve foot tree are so festive. There is no other place like this one. It is a rare opportunity for a new owner to experience something special and create memories. Additional adjoining acreage is available. Additional adjoining acreage is available. Great location, 52 miles to Hartsfield Jackson International Airport and 16 miles to Alpharetta.
