Widely regarded as one of Atlanta's finest private residences, and by many as the last great home built in Atlanta, this home represents a caliber of estate rarely seen in the Southeast. Behind Private gates, the 7.12 level acres on meticulously manicured grounds provide scale and beauty in Atlanta's coveted 30327 zip code, this extraordinary French Country Estate offers a rare combination of architectural significance, exceptional craftsmanship, with complete privacy. Designed by renowned residential architect Norman Davenport Askins, built by custom home builder Jerry Bonner and completed in the summer of 2014, this residence has never before been offered. Inspired by the great estates of France, the home and grounds were conceived and executed over the course of 3 years, with an extraordinary level of care given to every architectural detail. From the moment of arrival, the authenticity and permeance of the architecture are unmistakable. The exterior is clad in roughly hewn pale gold limestone beneath a Ludowici clay tile roof tile. Inside, reclaimed French oak flooring and hand-applied plaster walls. French oak doors and windows, complete with period hardware, were constructed in France. Hand-hewn ceiling beams, carved marble period mantels, and custom lighting, sconces, and chandeliers lend each room its own character. Spanning three levels, the main residence features six bedrooms, six full baths, six half baths, elevator, eight fireplaces and a separate additional 1-be
