Betsy Akers of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby's International Realty. Bidding has commenced online via our online marketplace and will culminate live on 17 December in New York City at The Dominick Hotel as part of the firm’s ‘2024 Grand Finale’ sale.

"Homes of this European palatial style—especially ones that so meticulously honor their architectural inspiration—are a true rarity in the United States," said Akers. "The estate’s architectural authenticity and intricate design make it far more than a residence; it’s a piece of art, and for a property of this caliber, reaching a truly discerning audience is key. Sotheby’s Concierge Auctions provides us with the ideal platform to connect with buyers who value such artistry and exclusivity.”

Set on 2.62± acres of manicured grounds and offering more than 15,000 square feet of living space , the home is perfect for entertaining. The property boasts an elegant wood-paneled library/office, a grand kitchen complete with a 10-burner gas range, and a grand living room that opens to the walkout pool and spa terrace. An enclosed breezeway connects the pool house and the home’s main level, which includes a gym, wine cellar, and family room overlooking the pool and spa. Featuring seven bedrooms and 11 bathrooms, the property makes for a versatile option as a palatial retreat or an elegant setting for hosting guests.

Beyond functionality and versatility, the estate is an aesthetic wonder whose interior design captures the timeless elegance of the great European palaces. Finely crafted chandeliers float above gilded fixtures, while polished wood and lacquered marble furnishings set a tone of thoughtful opulence. Even amidst all this Old-World charm, the residence comes equipped with modern appliances and conveniences, functioning as a “smart home” for modern living.

With prestigious arts institutions, a vibrant culinary landscape, and Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport providing global connectivity, Atlanta offers a distinctive and well-rounded lifestyle.
