5260 Long Island Drive NW

Set on nearly six acres in one of Atlanta’s most coveted communities, this gated estate offers a rare chance to own significant land just minutes from Chastain Park, Buckhead, and Sandy Springs. Designed by Harrison Design and built by John Willis Custom Homes, the home blends timeless architecture with refined craftsmanship, creating a setting that feels both elevated and livable. The kitchen is a true centerpiece, featuring custom Pricinsky cabinetry with concealed storage, marble countertops, and a full suite of Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances. It opens seamlessly to a vaulted, light-filled den anchored by a striking fireplace, an ideal gathering space for everyday living and entertaining alike. The formal living room showcases detailed millwork and architectural character and opens to a screened porch overlooking the quiet, tree-lined acreage. The layout is designed for both today and tomorrow. Two spacious bedrooms on the main level offer immediate guest or office options and also provide the opportunity to create a future main-level primary suite, should one-level living ever be part of your plan. With generous ceiling heights and thoughtful proportions throughout, the home also allows for long-term enhancements, including the potential for an elevator. The terrace level creates a true indoor-outdoor experience, with sliding doors that fully retract to a private courtyard centered around a heated pool and spa. Limestone decking, a firepit, outdoor shower, and kitchenette set the stage for relaxed evenings and weekend gatherings. Inside, a custom bar, multiple TVs for game days, a recreation lounge, and a private gym support both entertaining and everyday wellness. With eight bedrooms and flexible living spaces, the home easily adapts to a range of lifestyles, whether hosting extended family, accommodating guests, or creating multiple work-from-home spaces. Every finish, from seven-inch white oak floors to the integrated sound and security systems, was selected to create a calm, refined, gallery-like environment. The gated grounds offer room to grow, with space for a pickleball or tennis court, guest house, or expanded garage space beyond the existing three-car garage and parking for 30+ vehicles. A whole-house generator provides peace of mind. Nearly six acres, a premier location, and a resort-style setting come together to offer something increasingly rare in Atlanta: privacy, flexibility, and long-term livability in one of the city’s most distinguished communities.
