A private retreat, hidden behind iron gates yet remarkably close to everything Atlanta has to offer. 1740 Childress Drive SW is an exceptional estate residence where privacy, architectural character, and sophisticated indoor-outdoor living come together in a setting rarely found this close to the city. From the private iron-gated entrance and brick drive to the striking blend of brick and stone architecture, the home makes an impression before you ever step inside. Professionally landscaped grounds surround a residence designed for both grand entertaining and comfortable everyday living. CUSTOM OUTDOOR KITCHEN. DEDICATED HOME THEATER. PRIVATE OWNER'S RETREAT WITH BALCONY. FINISHED TERRACE LEVEL. These are just some of the exceptional features awaiting you at 1740 Childress Drive SW. Inside, soaring ceilings, dramatic walls of windows, rich hardwood floors, and exquisite architectural details create an impressive sense of scale and elegance. The open-concept design provides a natural flow between the main living spaces, while thoughtfully designed rooms offer both formal entertaining and comfortable everyday living. The chef’s kitchen serves as a natural gathering place, while the expansive owner’s suite provides a private retreat of its own, complete with a balcony overlooking the wooded surroundings and a separate sitting room that can also function as an executive office. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers six bedrooms, five full baths, and one-half bath, providing exceptional flexibility for family and guests. The finished terrace level extends the living and entertaining possibilities even further, featuring a dedicated home theater, spacious recreation room, full bath, laundry area, and additional living space.
