A rare River Chase retreat, this extensively renovated residence offers the feel of a modern
treehouse—light-filled, private, and surrounded by nature—just minutes from the heart of
Sandy Springs.
Originally designed to take advantage of its elevated setting and peaceful surroundings, the
home blends architectural character with a relaxed, modern aesthetic. Set on approximately 1.5
acres and framed by protected forest, it offers a rare combination of openness, privacy, and
quiet, with trees, light, and views becoming part of the everyday experience of the home.
Inside, more than 8,000 square feet unfold vertically across thoughtfully connected levels,
creating distinct zones for gathering, working, wellness, guests, and private retreat. The home
offers openness where it matters and separation where it is valuable, with expansive windows,
skylights, soaring ceilings, and wide architectural transitions bringing in natural light
throughout.
The main level is designed for flow and ease, with a welcoming lounge and wet bar, dining
spaces that open to the terrace, and a beautifully updated kitchen with quartz surfaces,
Thermador and Bosch appliances, and an oversized island. A dramatic great room with exposed
beams, skylights, and a stone fireplace anchors the space, while a sunroom-style office provides
a bright and inspiring place to work.
The primary suite is a private sanctuary, featuring a fireplace, sitting area, spa-like bath with
steam shower, and a thoughtfully designed walk-in “spa closet” with direct access to the
laundry. A light-filled upper retreat extends the suite, offering a unique and flexible space
currently used as a dressing lounge, with skylights and elevated views through the trees.
All bedrooms include ensuite baths, offering comfort and privacy across the main and bedroom
levels. The terrace level functions as a full extension of the home, with generous spaces for
work, wellness, media, recreation, and additional living—along with the flexibility to create
private guest quarters or extended living.
Outdoor spaces are equally inviting, with layered terraces, courtyards, turfed gathering areas,
and an amphitheater-style setting ideal for outdoor movie nights, casual entertaining, or quiet
evenings surrounded by nature. Professional plans for a pool and covered outdoor living retreat
are available, with survey work and added electrical capacity already completed to support the
vision. The elevated setting offers treetop and seasonal Chattahoochee River views, while a
circular drive with dual entry points provides ease of access and ample parking.
Just across the street, River Chase’s private amenities—including pool, tennis, clubhouse, and
direct Chattahoochee River access—offer a lifestyle that is increasingly rare in Sandy Springs.
A truly distinctive home where design, light, and landscape come together to create a rare
sense of retreat in one of the area's most sought-after communities.
