785 Clifton Road

785 Clifton Road, ATLANTA, GA 30307-2581

$3,250,000

Set directly across from Druid Hills Golf Club and neighboring the Fernbank Museum of Natural History, 785 Clifton Road sits in one of Atlanta's most established neighborhoods — surrounded by green space, history, and academia.

The home has passed through remarkably few hands in its lifetime. It was originally built for Eugene Oberdorfer, a prominent Atlanta businessman, military officer, and leader in the American Jewish community. He served as a professor of military science at Emory University during World War I and later as adjutant general of Georgia.

The home was later purchased by Colonel Blake Ragsdale Van Leer, who moved in with his family while serving as the fifth president of Georgia Tech — the first engineer to lead the institution — from 1944 until his death in 1956. During his tenure, he oversaw the historic admission of women as regular undergraduate students for the first time. He is honored today through Georgia Tech's Blake R. Van Leer Building.

Since 1965, the home has belonged to just one family — the current owners — who have carried forward its role as a true family residence for six decades. In a neighborhood defined by grand homes, 785 Clifton Road stands apart: a house that has been lived in, loved, and cared for continuously.
