Some homes are built. The Adams Mansion was composed. Behind private iron gates on a quiet tree-lined street, this English Manor estate is perfectly balanced with modern finishes — old-world architecture executed with contemporary precision. You arrive along a stone-paved motor court through a carriage-arch entry reminiscent of historic British estates, then cross into a natural light-filled two-story foyer where a spiral staircase accented by a catwalk rises above marble flooring imported from Istanbul. Step further into the two-story great room, the emotional center of the home. A bespoke fireplace with herringbone inlay anchors the space, flanked by aluminum-clad windows and French doors that pull the eye out to the grounds and pool and pour daylight back in. It gets better in the chef's kitchen, where no expense was spared: double islands under marble countertops, a double sink, a six-burner Thermador range with integrated char grill, and a walk-in pantry with custom shelving. The adjacent keeping room rises to a 15-foot vaulted ceiling — the kind of space that keeps family and guests lingering long after the meal is done. Top-tier in style and quality, and more importantly, genuinely functional. The well-considered floor plan carries through the entire home. Every additional bedroom has its own uniquely designed ensuite bath. The owner's suite claims its own two-story wing with double walk-in closets scaled for the most discerning wardrobe, Carrara marble vanities, an oversized walk-in shower with designer fixtures, and a deep soaking tub — plus private access to the pool and spa, a seamless indoor-outdoor connection reserved for the owner's level. Descend to the daylight basement, where 12-foot ceilings and custom lighting create an atmosphere rarely seen at this level of a home: a family room and full wet bar on a 10-foot leather-textured granite island, a private theater, a billiards lounge, a double-sided fireplace warming both bar and family room, and a guest suite with full bath and second laundry. Then climb to the third floor and find a full indoor basketball court — a feature almost no private residence in Atlanta can claim. The exterior was not neglected. The completed inground pool and spa turn the fenced grounds into a private resort. The four-car garage holds eight with 12-foot lift-height ceilings and two EV charging stations. Stone and brick give the estate a sense of permanence that simply cannot be replicated. Twelve-zone sound and intercom, whole-home pre-wiring, smart-home ready, security gate system. Over $200K in designer furnishings convey. This is currently a luxury short term rental bringing in ~30k per month. Two miles to premium shopping and dining, 15 minutes to Downtown Atlanta, 15 minutes to Hartsfield-Jackson. Convenience, inside modern-traditional luxury.
