Set along one of Druid Hills’ most beloved streets, this extraordinary Georgian Revival on Fairview Road is a rare offering where historic integrity and thoughtful expansion exist in perfect harmony. A gracious, quintessential Druid Hills entry unfolds into a home that immediately reveals the depth of its restoration—intricate original moldings, beautifully preserved architectural details, and a commanding central staircase that anchors the residence with quiet elegance. The main level offers a remarkable sense of scale and flow, with an expansive formal living room seamlessly connecting to a more intimate fireside gathering space adjacent to the kitchen, while a sunlit sunroom showcases exquisite original Greek key tile—an unforgettable nod to the home’s heritage. A generously proportioned dining room designed for meaningful gatherings leads effortlessly into a butler’s pantry and onward to a stunning, fully realized kitchen featuring soapstone and marble surfaces, Wolf appliances, and a Sub-Zero refrigerator. Just beyond, a covered patio and breezeway create a natural extension of the living space and connect to an impressive three-car garage. Upstairs, a thoughtfully designed landing offers two flexible living areas ideal for a library, office, or lounge, along with three large, light-filled secondary bedrooms and two beautifully appointed baths. The primary suite is a true retreat, introduced by a private vestibule and accompanied by a spacious laundry area and elevator shaft access, offering both luxury and long-term livability. The serene bedroom overlooks the lushly landscaped grounds and opens to a refined marble-clad bath, complemented by a generously sized closet. An enormous unfinished attic presents a rare and valuable opportunity—ideal for a future office, playroom, media space, or additional suite, offering flexibility to evolve with your needs. One of the property’s most compelling features lies beyond the main residence—an expansive carriage house with soaring ceilings, rich with potential and ready to be tailored to your vision. Every inch of this home reflects a deep commitment to preservation and quality, with the sellers investing thoughtfully to honor its history while enhancing its functionality for modern living. All of this is set on a classic, substantial Druid Hills lot, just moments from Paideia, the Freedom Park Path and BeltLine, and the vibrant offerings of Virginia Highland, Inman Park, and Poncey Highland, with close proximity to Emory and the CDC—an exceptional opportunity to steward a truly special piece of Atlanta’s architectural legacy.
