Perched high above Winn Park, this timeless Ansley Park home offers a rare vantage point - lush park views layered with sweeping glimpses of the Midtown skyline that twinkle brightly through the winter canopy right from your front door. Set above the street with a sense of privacy and perspective,… Read More it feels quietly removed yet deeply connected to the rhythm of the city. Cedar shake siding, manicured gardens, and a slate patio create a setting that feels both established and wonderfully sheltering, just moments from Atlanta's cultural core. Double staircases frame the front entry, opening to a generous foyer that sets a welcoming tone. On the main level, four Juliet balconies swing open to let in the crisp fresh air, birdsong from the park, and skyline views that shift beautifully with the seasons. The formal living room functions as a refined library, complete with a working gas fireplace that casts a warm glow over rich architectural detailing and a discreet pocket bar - ideal for cozy evenings that unfold slowly. Across the foyer, the formal dining room is equally elegant, bathed in natural light and designed for gatherings both intimate and celebratory. At the heart of the home, a thoughtfully designed galley kitchen balances function and style with marble countertops, a basket-weave backsplash, custom cabinetry, and integrated appliances. A central wooden island invites conversation over warm meals, while the adjoining breakfast nook opens directly to the patio. The sunroom is a standout, with vaulted ceilings and three walls of windows that capture the low winter sun, drawing the outdoors in while keeping the elements at bay. Nearby, the family room is a comforting retreat, with beamed tongue-and-groove ceilings, a second working fireplace, and French doors leading to the slate patio, where mature oaks and the gentle sound of the nearby fountain set the scene for quiet weekends. The main-level primary suite is tucked into its own private wing, offering flexibility for a sitting room or home office. French doors open to the patio, oversized windows bring in garden and sunset views, and custom yours-and-yours closets complement a beautifully updated bath with dual marble vanities, a soaking tub perfect for unwinding on chilly nights, and a walk-in steam shower. Upstairs, three spacious bedroom suites branch off a large open landing, each with its own private bath, an exceptional level of comfort and privacy for guests or family. One suite features a custom Murphy bed, allowing the space to easily shift between office, studio, or guest retreat. Outside, steel doors open to a landscaped patio, pea gravel courtyard, and turfed lawn, spaces designed to be both elegant and easy, whether for play, pets, or evenings spent under the trees wrapped in blankets with the skyline just beyond. With Winn Park at your feet and Midtown's skyline shining through the trees, this home is a rare balance of nature, architecture, and city living. Walk to the High Museum, the Woodruff Arts Center, and the Botanical Gardens, all while returning home to quiet streets, layered views, and a setting that feels truly special. This is Ansley Park living at its most thoughtful - gracious, grounded, and beautifully connected. Read Less
