Property Description
Designed in 1929 by Ivey & Crook, one of Atlanta's most respected architectural firms, this distinguished residence exemplifies the Georgian Revival style — perfect symmetry, balanced proportions, and understated elegance.
Constructed of rich red brick with contrasting black shutters, the façade presents a stately yet welcoming presence. A columned portico with fluted supports and a triangular pediment frames the front door, adorned with original sidelights and a delicate fanlight transom — glowing in afternoon sun and setting the tone for the craftsmanship within.
A brick walkway winds through the front lawn, softening the symmetry and leading to the entrance. Mature trees, sweeping lawns, and thoughtful siting on three acres create a sense of quiet grandeur — spacious yet intimate. At the rear, a charming pool and pool house offer a relaxed counterpoint to the home's formality, ideal for entertaining or private retreat.
Inside, graceful proportions, sunlight, and original details define the interiors. The central foyer showcases hardwood floors, intricate moldings, and a sweeping staircase that rises with understated elegance. Flanking rooms — a bright formal living room centered on a carved mantel and a balanced dining room overlooking the lawn — reflect Ivey & Crook's mastery of flow and proportion.
To one side, the formal living room centers on a traditional fireplace with a carved mantel and flanking windows that fill the space
with natural light. The dining room on the opposite side mirrors this sense of proportion — bright, balanced, and open, with original
millwork and double windows that look out to the beautiful lawn. Together, these rooms create an ideal setting for both entertaining
and quiet evenings.
The kitchen, filled with morning light, retains its vintage footprint and offers potential for sensitive modernization. Adjoining rooms provide inviting informal spaces, including a breakfast room with original glass-front cabinetry.
Upstairs, four bedrooms continue the home's timeless symmetry, with high ceilings, ample windows, and 1920s craftsmanship. Light shifts beautifully throughout the day, and two and a half baths serve the upper and main levels.
The basement, with original plumbing and electrical connections, includes a long-unused bath — a glimpse into the home's early
design foresight. It offers flexible space for storage, a workshop, or future renovation. The three-acre property unfolds gently
around the home, with manicured lawns, mature magnolias, and a natural sense of privacy. The pool and pool house, added later,
harmonize beautifully with the landscape, giving the estate a quiet, resort-like quality.
Lovingly cared for by only two families since 1929, this home stands as a living testament to Ivey & Crook's enduring Southern grace, proportion, and light.
