La description
A rare opportunity to own a manor house that feels like refined countryside living — the first time it’s been on the market! An exquisite, romantic, classical home designed for the modern lifestyle. Timeless, easy living with indoor and outdoor spaces ideal for quiet reflection or entertaining. With nods to 17th Century Europe and Cape Dutch styles, this custom home was created as a partnership between the renowned architect, John Calhoun and the designer homeowner and was built with the human experience in mind. “The Pink House,” as it is popularly referred to, is perfectly sited on a wooded ridge, allowing natural light and landscape views from every window. Located between Chastain Park and the Mt. Paran/Northside Drive neighborhoods, this property on a quiet cul de sac, is situated in both the City of Atlanta and Sandy Springs, offering a choice of school systems. Paran Valley is a hidden gem tucked within walking distance of Chastain Park without all of the crowds and traffic. The interiors are just as impressive as the exteriors, with an elevated level of design, including custom sky lights, custom molding throughout, 200-year-old beams, curved staircases, and a 400-year-old Portuguese arch, just to name a few of the spectacular elements. The flexible floor plan has a full bedroom and bath on the main with a sauna and an additional 4 chambres et 3 baths upstairs. The finished terrace level is ideal as a home office and/or additional living space. This home is perfect for a family or someone looking for an easy lifestyle. Because the owners come and go from Atlanta and the South of France, the home was designed to be low maintenance. The landscaping has lush moss, beautiful foliage and a cherry blossom tree in the back courtyard to enjoy during the springtime — you’ll feel as if you’ve transported to the French countryside.
