Description

Quickly Disappearing Opportunity for an Historic 1917 Classic Traditional attributed to Neel Reid on an estate lot, 1.25 acres, in prestigious Druid Hills, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, the father of American landscape design including Central Park in Manhattan. It is becoming a rare event to find an important historic residence in Druid Hills that is close to original condition. The current family has owned the property for 53 years; other than meticulous maintenance, very little has changed....Quickly Disappearing Opportunity for an Historic 1917 Classic Traditional attributed to Neel Reid on an estate lot, 1.25 acres, in prestigious Druid Hills, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted, the father of American landscape design including Central Park in Manhattan. It is becoming a rare event to find an important historic residence in Druid Hills that is close to original condition. The current family has owned the property for 53 years; other than meticulous maintenance, very little has changed. The scale of the rooms is grand with 10+ foot ceilings; light and airy spaces with casement windows designed to capture sunlight while providing verdant views with long vistas; there are quarter sawn hardwood oak floors on the main level and heart pine floors on the upstairs level; the artistry of the architectural design enables the rooms to create an elegant home while at the same time providing a warm embracing comfortable place to live - a special attribute. The main floor layout incorporates a front entry veranda that welcomes you into a gracious living room with an impressive mantle and fireplace plus views of the front and back yards; for entertaining purposes, the room flows seamlessly into a beautiful dining room with substantial ceiling moldings. The other end of the front living room provides access to a charming sunroom with fountain and a tile floor. A beautifully crafted staircase is tucked into the footprint with a landing offering a panoramic view of the back yard; notice the ease of walking up the risers and treads that were designed to provide a graceful flow up the stairs. The large (for the time) Kitchen, Breakfast Room, walk-in Pantry and Back Porch have plenty of space to design a kitchen worthy of today's standard. The upstairs level with 4 generous bedrooms and 2 full baths plus auxiliary spaces offers the opportunity to create a luxurious primary suite plus additional bedroom suites; the possibilities are endless. You can use the existing floor plan as it is; or reconfigure the layout to have a family room open to the kitchen, or add on more space to meet your particular needs. The impressive lot allows for a pool and pool house, expansive landscaping, or whatever recreational pursuits you might have. Come create the home of your dreams in one of Atlanta's most respected and beautiful neighborhoods with prize winning schools, a few blocks from Emory Village, Emory University and Hospital and the CDC, proximity to all things Intown including the Arts, restaurants, shopping, parks, interstates and 25 minutes to Hartsfield Intl Airport.
