Property details
About 6525 Old Riverside Dr NW
First time ever on the market, this extraordinary property is both stunning and comfortable, a work of art that is also a functional and spacious residence. Custom built in 1984 on ~2 wooded acres in Sandy Springs, the home's design seems inspired by both Asian and California Contemporary architecture with its subtle elevation from the road, gradually vaulted roofline, open floorplan, large windows, wood and stone finishes, and outdoor perches. Plentiful custom windows provide natural light and wooded or flora views from nearly every room, helping to create a seamless flow between the residence and its surrounding environment. The main level is centered around the defining great room with its artisan fireplace and soaring beamed ceiling, making each visitor feel like they are being welcomed into a special retreat. A few steps up from the great room on one side, the sleek chef's kitchen draws in ample light from a cascading skylight; a custom-designed island with an extended dining bar serves for casual dining. The primary suite on main, with a magazine-worthy bathroom and his/hers closets, is connected to a private study at the front of the home. Opposite the fireplace, anchoring the other end of the great room, is an eye-catching, sculpture-like staircase leading to the second level of the home with 4 private bedrooms sharing 2 jack-and-jill bathrooms. For enjoying fresh air across three seasons, an intimate screened porch is off the keeping room at the rear of the house, while an open deck flanks the great room, both overlooking the beautiful swimming pool below. Other features to note include: TWO 2-car garages, 2 interior storage rooms (one is set up as a workroom), and a finished terrace level with a large open family/media room, an oversized bedroom (fits a king bed easily), and a full bath. A laundry room/mudroom is on the main level, conveniently tucked behind the kitchen.
