820 Loridans Drive NE

Set quietly behind a canopy of mature landscaping on 1.2 exceptionally private acres, 820 Loridans Drive is a residence of uncommon architectural presence and refinement. Encompassing more than 8,500 square feet across three elevator-served levels, the home pairs timeless design with richly layered interiors that have been recognized both regionally and nationally, including publication in numerous design magazines such as Atlanta Homes & Lifestyles, as well as ASID design awards for the kitchen and primary bathroom. A circular drive introduces the estate and leads to interiors defined by remarkable craftsmanship, curated materials, and elegant scale. Wide-plank French oak flooring extends throughout the home, while a striking foyer with stone inlay and sweeping curved staircase establishes an immediate sense of arrival. Formal spaces unfold with balance and proportion, including a richly paneled fireside library, banquet-sized dining room, and an intimate walk-in temperature-controlled wine cellar designed for serious collectors and effortless entertaining. At the heart of the residence, the kitchen was conceived as both a statement in design and a highly functional culinary workspace. Dual islands anchor the space alongside substantial stone surfaces, bespoke cabinetry, and a comprehensive suite of professional-grade appliances. The kitchen opens seamlessly to a vaulted fireside keeping room accented by reclaimed Alabama beams, creating warmth and architectural character rarely found in newer construction. Nearby, the dramatic two-story great room offers soaring ceilings, exceptional natural light, and one of several handsome Francois fireplaces found throughout the home. The upper-level primary suite is arranged as a true private retreat, featuring a sitting room, expansive custom wardrobe, and an award-winning marble-clad bath with steam shower and spa-inspired detailing. Additional ensuite bedrooms are thoughtfully distributed throughout the residence, offering exceptional comfort and privacy for both family and guests. Permanent stairs lead to a substantial attic space, providing rare accessibility and storage. Designed equally for entertaining and everyday living, the terrace level functions as a destination unto itself, complete with a sophisticated bar, additional family room, billiards and lounge areas, fitness studio, guest suite, and extensive storage. Outdoor living is equally compelling. The rear grounds are remarkably secluded and framed by mature professional landscaping, creating an atmosphere more reminiscent of a private estate retreat than an in-town property. A heated pool and spa, built-in fire feature, outdoor audio system, and multiple gathering spaces are all enveloped by wooded privacy. A three-car garage, elevator access to all levels, dual staircases, extensive custom millwork, and designer lighting and finishes throughout further distinguish the property. 820 Loridans Drive represents a rare convergence of architectural integrity, nationally recognized design, privacy, and livability within one of Buckhead’s most established and sought-after residential settings.
