Beyond private gates and a sweeping drive, 3685 Paces Ferry Road presents an extraordinary world of privacy, architectural distinction and timeless beauty in one of Buckhead's most coveted estate settings. Designed by renowned architect William T. Baker and masterfully constructed by custom builder McGarity, this ivy-clad English manor is gracefully positioned across three exquisitely landscaped acres, creating a rare sense of arrival just moments from the heart of the city.
The experience begins in the grand two-story foyer, where richly paneled oak walls and marble flooring establish an atmosphere of enduring sophistication. Beautifully proportioned living spaces unfold with an effortless sense of occasion--from the fireside study and elegant formal dining room to the vaulted family room designed for relaxed everyday living. Throughout the residence, exceptional millwork, stone, marble and custom architectural detailing reflect an uncompromising commitment to craftsmanship.
At the center of the home, the chef's kitchen is both impressive and inviting, with dual marble islands, professional-grade appliances and two generous pantries. Designed for gathering, it opens naturally to the family room, sunroom and an exceptional glass conservatory imported from England. Surrounded by garden views, the conservatory offers a magical setting for morning coffee, intimate dinners or evenings beneath the changing light.
The main-level primary suite is a private retreat unto itself, complete with a sitting area, fireplace, views across the pool and gardens, and two beautifully appointed dressing rooms and his/her bathrooms. Four additional bedroom suites are located upstairs, each offering privacy for family and guests, along with a versatile bonus room and elevator access throughout the residence. Whole house generator, elevator.
Created for memorable entertaining, the terrace level transforms the home into a private destination. A richly appointed bar, billiards lounge, wine cellar and state-of-the-art theater invite evenings at home, while a fitness center and sauna provide the luxuries of a personal wellness retreat.
Outside, the estate becomes a secluded resort. Celebrated landscape architect John Howard designed the grounds as a series of intimate garden experiences, enhanced by more than 70 Japanese maples and mature plantings that provide remarkable beauty throughout the seasons. The pool and spa are framed by expansive terraces and an open-air summer house, offering a serene backdrop for afternoon gatherings, elegant dinners and evenings beneath the stars.
With nearly 16,000 square feet of living and entertaining space, six bedrooms, seven full and two half bathrooms, an elevator and a four-car garage, 3685 Paces Ferry Road is more than an exceptional residence--it is an enduring Buckhead estate created for a life of beauty, privacy and effortless sophistication.
