...Perched on a quiet hilltop overlooking Lavista Park, this modern showpiece pairs bold architecture with serene privacy. Walls of glass and lush landscaping create dramatic street appeal, while inside, soaring ceilings, a floating glass staircase, and hardwoods throughout set the tone for sophisticated living.
Set on one of Lavista Park’s best streets, the home opens to a private, resort-style backyard. The outdoor oasis features a new heated PebbleTec saltwater pool with sun shelf, waterfalls, and infinity edge, complemented by marble retaining walls and patios. A fully equipped outdoor kitchen, fire pit, and automated landscape lighting and sound complete the unmatched indoor/outdoor lifestyle.
The flexible layout includes a main-level primary suite with spa bath; private guest suites upstairs and on the terrace level; and three indoor plus three outdoor living areas for entertaining. A rooftop terrace with fireplace, wet bar, and skyline views extends the experience above the treetops. Every window is thoughtfully placed to frame dramatic natural landscapes, blurring the line between architecture and nature.
At the heart of the home, the chef’s kitchen balances clean-lined design with maximum functionality. Features include custom flat-paneled cabinetry, crisp quartz counters, dual full-size sinks, twin dishwashers, double ovens, a walk-in pantry, and an architectural backsplash. A dramatic brick feature wall extends from the exterior into the living spaces, visually connecting the resort-inspired yard to Lavista Park and beyond.
Elevator-capable design and a terrace-level multigenerational suite—with second laundry and plumbing for a future kitchen—offer options for long-term guests or extended living. Additional features include a fully finished two-car garage with EV charging, whole-house audio (including rooftop and pool), app-controlled lighting, irrigation, and perimeter fencing with security cameras. A full solar array provides efficient, low-maintenance living through a self-sustaining closed-loop system.
Situated in Lavista Park—an architectural enclave celebrated for its leafy streets, green space, and unmatched centrality to Emory, CHOA, the CDC, Midtown, and Buckhead—1242 Wild Creek Trail is not just a residence but a lifestyle destination.
