Amenities and special features of this house
We invite you to enjoy a tour through another time in this special home with pristine original elements including spacious entertaining rooms, marble and tile sunrooms, four spacious bedrooms with art deco en suite baths, a spacious kitchen and breakfast room and space for a large wine cellar. There is also an elevator. A true luxury of the time, and something not found even now in many historic homes here.Originally built for the VP of the Loews Grand theater (and later MGM studios). It is likely that they entertained the studio execs and film stars of Gone with the Wind during the Premiere here in 1939. Come see us for a tour and the full story. A rare and wonderful opportunity to own a piece of Atlanta's rich architectural history. In addition to the main house, the original guest cabin is still nestled into the far corners of the garden in total privacy from the main house. An addition was added later to include a large bedroom with a stone fireplace, a sitting room and a full bath. Above the 2 car garage there is a studio with a full bath. Both need renovation, but offer the opportunity to have additional guest and recreational spaces.This idyllic home faces the Druid Hills Golf Course and is graced by a 'listed' Cedar that may be close to a century old. Behind the home the grounds are expansive and create a nature preserve like setting with room for a pool in multiple locations.The existing gardens include original 1930s stone wall terraces, a stone bbq fireplace, and many other accents including a lovely fern garden with a circular stone walled fountain and a stone waterfall dating back to the 1930s designed to splash into a small pool below for a relaxing atmosphere off the two sunrooms on the main floor. *This exceptional property feels as though it is in the countryside, but is conveniently located approximately 25 minutes from the Atlanta International Airports, 15 minutes from downtown Atlanta, 10 minutes from Decatur Square, 7 minutes from Virginia Highland, and walking distance to Emory Village and Emory University Campus. **Located in DeKalb Unincorporated which gives substantial savings on property taxes. (No city taxes. County only.) ***This home is a gorgeous Druid Hills classic which the buyer will likely want to renovate. There are also two accessory structures which could be renovated or perhaps replaced with new construction. There is much value in the 1.7 acre estate lot and the phenomenal location near the Lullwater Conservation Garden and across from the Druid Hills golf course on one of the most desired streets in the city. Recent sales in Druid Hills have been between $4 and $5m. This is an incredible opportunity to create substantial equity in your investment upon completion of a total renovation. Bring your creative thinkers that want to design their own home with their architects and builders to create a masterpiece.
