Wondering where to find the most luxurious Atlanta mansions for sale? They aren’t all in Buckhead – though, that storied uptown district of Atlanta has many mansions to choose from. But – there are quite a few other wonderful sections of the city where Atlanta mansions for sale abound, many of which encircle Piedmont Park.
Ansley Park
Ansley Park is to the north of downtown and just west of Piedmont Park is one of the city’s most stunning, thanks to its heavily wooded streets, winding avenues and small parks. Considered a “garden suburb”, this area’s Atlanta mansions for sale are far from cookie cutter; in fact, there’s a great variety of architecture to choose from, from neo-classical and colonial to contemporary and Queen Anne. You’ll also find plenty of stars, athletes and artists making their homes here.
Druid Hills
Planned by the same city planner as created Central Park, Frederick Law Olmstead, and was commissioned and developed by Coca-Cola founder Asa Candler. It’s no wonder this neighborhood has held onto its prestige, since the company calls Atlanta home today. Many of the Atlanta mansions for sale here were built in the 20th century and feature an old Southern sensibility, thickly wooded yards and wide front porches. No wonder the film “Driving Miss Daisy” was filmed here.
Dunwoody
Located just outside of the city limits and is considered one of the “hipper” neighborhoods with Atlanta mansions for sale. Flush with restaurants, museums, local theaters and cultural events, homes in this area tend to sprawl – and its most affluent residents are often in the entertainment game like P. Diddy and Tony Braxton.
Virginia Highlands/Midtown
A quiet, walkable, small-town style neighborhood right in the heart of the city, a stone’s throw from Piedmont Park, Amsterdam Walk, quality schools and libraries, upscale boutiques, restaurants, houses of worship and only a 15 minute drive to the heart of downtown Atlanta, where busy company executives call home Monday through Friday. Considered one of the best affluent “intown” areas to raise a family, an exciting new 7,800 square foot Atlanta mansion for sale is actually being sold at no-reserve absolute auction on May 8th. Five stories tall and spanning two city lots, the neighborhood this modern residence sits in is close to everything, from Emory University to the interstates and even the airport.
