Step into a piece of Atlanta history with this breathtaking 1870 estate in Grant Park, situated on one of the neighborhood's most coveted streets between the park and the Belt Line. Lovingly restored to surpass its original grandeur, this post-Civil War gem exudes timeless charm, with a perfect blend of historic features and modern luxury. The moment you approach the expansive front porch, you'll be captivated by the home's beauty. Step inside, and you're greeted by the elegance of a bygone era: a ladies' parlor on the left, a gentlemen's parlor on the right, and a stunning central hallway that draws you in. Original southern longleaf heart-of-pine floors, wavy glass windows, period-correct light fixtures, and carefully preserved pre-Victorian fireplaces adorn every room, creating an ambiance that’s as warm as it is impressive. As you move toward the rear of the main level, you'll discover a spacious guest suite complete with its own bath and office. Across from that is a chef's dream kitchen — the size of a small house! Outfitted with Viking appliances, the kitchen opens onto a second-story screened porch with its own Viking grill. Wine lovers will appreciate the temperature-controlled wine storage pantry, while entertainers will revel in the butler’s pantry, serving room, and a formal dining room that comfortably seats 12. Ascend the grand staircase to the upper level, where a cozy landing has been transformed into a library featuring custom mahogany bookshelves. But there's a twist! Press a few select books, and two hidden doors reveal two secret bedrooms — one a luxurious guest suite, the other a private au-pair suite with its own kitchen, sitting area, and a secluded third-floor balcony with views of the estate. The lower level is designed for entertainment, boasting a party-ready space complete with a wet bar, dining area, and lounge. For relaxation, enjoy the men's and women's changing rooms, a steam sauna, and a stunning cherry-wood, temperature-controlled walk-in wine cellar. From here, step through French doors to yet another covered porch, where you'll overlook the resort-style pool area. Surrounded by lush landscaping, waterfalls, and fountains, it's your own private paradise. This estate goes above and beyond with additional features like a koi pond, a 4-car detached garage, a large storage building, and nearly an acre of green space. Don’t miss your chance to own this rare piece of Atlanta’s history. A home of this caliber — where historic charm meets modern luxury — doesn’t come around often. Schedule your tour today and prepare to fall in love!

How insights can help you

Interest rate

If the seller has a low interest rate, they may be tempted to rent the property out if they can't get the price they have in mind.

Motivation

If the seller already got a job in a different city, they may feel pressure to sell quickly to free up cash for a new home.

Equity

If the seller stands to receive a large amount of cash when they sell the property, they might be willing to negotiate on the offer price.
