After consolidating 12 parcels, the owner wanted to position a more than 35,000 sf estate at the crest of a hill overlooking the Chattahoochee River in West Buckhead. This traditional French Provincial home with modern accents would need to have multiple entry points, all gated for security, to accommodate a complete guest house, a hobby related air strip, tennis courts, walking trails by the river, and heavily hard-scaped areas surrounding a colossal outdoor terrace and swimming pool.
The lowest of 3 levels, with its own covered terrace is designed for recreation and entertainment with luxury commercial gang restrooms. A theater sized for screening movie productions, flanks one of the 4 distinct wings of the residence. Multiple suites with optimal lounging areas and large storage are provided at each of the upper wings and a care-taker’s residence is also positioned in a wing above part of the 6-car parking garages.
The main level greets the owner’s guest through a 12-foot grand entry into a double loaded monumental stair and parlor. This entire level is designed to accommodate the residence of the house but can also serve as a more formal means of entertaining guest. It has in fact served Presidents and dignitaries of the country, as well as other prominent guest of the Atlanta area.
