About this home
Perfectly positioned on one of Garden Hills’ most desirable streets, this painted brick residence offers a rare balance of refined architecture, thoughtful design, and an address that quietly speaks for itself. Moments from Buckhead’s premier dining and boutique shopping and set within one of Atlanta’s most walkable and established neighborhoods, the home delivers exceptional convenience while maintaining a sense of charm and quiet retreat.
A gracious approach sets the tone, where painted brick and warm timber accents are complemented by seasonal planters. Inside, the formal dining room is both elegant and inviting, with coffered ceilings and a butler’s pantry that allows gatherings to unfold with ease.
The kitchen is designed for both everyday living and effortless entertaining, featuring painted cabinetry, granite countertops, a pot filler, double sinks, and stainless-steel appliances—all thoughtfully arranged. A sunlit breakfast nook offers a natural place to begin the day, while the vaulted family room beyond is anchored by a fireplace and flanked by floor-to-ceiling bookshelves—creating a space equally suited for quiet evenings or welcoming guests. Beneath a soaring cathedral ceiling, a striking fireplace with an expansive hearth serves as the centerpiece of the main level, paired with thoughtfully updated lighting and beautifully finished solid hardwood floors that extend throughout the home. Just off the main living area, a screened side porch provides a shaded retreat before opening to the rear deck, extending living outdoors across the seasons.
The primary suite on the main level offers a private and well-proportioned retreat. Upstairs, two spacious bedrooms with built-ins and newly refinished hardwoods each feature en-suite baths, while unfinished storage presents a clear opportunity for future expansion.
The terrace level adds meaningful flexibility, with a finished basement featuring tiled floors and an island-centered bar—ideal for relaxed gatherings or extended stays. A fourth bedroom is complemented by a dedicated office or fitness room, a mudroom, and both a full and half bath. The two-car drive-under garage includes freshly sealed floors, and the level driveway provides ample room for parking and maneuvering.
Set on one of the larger lots in Garden Hills, the property offers a level backyard that feels both expansive and notably private—an increasingly rare combination in this location. Whether hosting outdoors or simply enjoying a quiet moment, the setting provides a sense of space and seclusion that is difficult to replicate.
Ideally located near the Duck Pond, neighborhood green spaces, and just moments from Buckhead’s most notable destinations, with convenient access to Atlanta International School.
279 Lakeview Avenue presents a rare opportunity to experience Garden Hills living with scale, privacy, and timeless appeal....
