Timeless Atlanta Residence By Georgia Classicist Architect James Means

This property is on the market for $3,600,000, listed with Beacham & Company, Realtors.

Renowned for being an architect of the old school, James Means reconstructed this timeless residence using reclaimed materials from the previous home torn down in 1963, designed by prominent architect Neel Reid in 1912.

In 1980, the current owner further expanded the property with the addition of a first-floor master suite and 2-car garage below, built by Noman Askins.

The 5-bedroom, 5-bath home spans 5894 square feet with classic detailing, seen in the intricate hardwood floors, elaborate moldings and wood-carvings throughout.

Each room on the main level opens out onto the surrounding terraces with French doors, and there’s a tennis court, swimming pool and pool house on the grounds.

The 4.6 acre property is set in the leafy Paces neighborhood in Buckhead’s River District,, a highly coveted address in the northwest corner of Atlanta, Georgia.
