Experience New Orleans Garden District living in a one-of-a-kind spectacular home in a one-of-kind gated community, nestled aside the Chattahoochee River - Sweet Bottom Plantation. This spacious 1849 Greek Revival Center Hall reproduction is a replica of the Payne-Strachan House located on First Street in the Garden District. You’ll be greeted by the most inviting deep double porches that is an ideal location to soak in the charm of this peaceful neighborhood! Upon entering the high ceilinged home you will immediately experience the wide center hall with coved molding that leads you into the spacious kitchen with a marble waterfall center island, an ample eat-in kitchen and a generous great room/keeping room with an oversized marble fireplace. The grand, welcoming entry is flanked by an inviting sitting room/parlor/office, wall to ceiling bookcase and an inviting fireplace. Opposite the sitting room is a gracious dining room that easily seats twelve with quick access to the butler’s pantry. To the back, there is a bright and airy all season sunroom overlooking the lush private pool and spa and gardens, multiple Trex decks for entertaining and an outdoor kitchen. The upper level of the main part of the home has a massive primary suite with a sitting area and fireplace; access to the upper balcony and swing, two lage primary walk-in closets, the travertine finished primary bath features a substantial walk-in steam shower plus a separate tub and dual vanities. Also on the upper level is a generous secondary bedroom with a walk-in closet and large attached bath. Finally, the 4th level is a walk-up attic that could easily be converted into additional living space or used for storage. The finished lower level includes an enormous den with space for a sizable sitting area, a custom collectors pool table valued at over $25k and a bar that takes you back in time to an Olde English pub. Also on the lower level is a multi-purpose room that can be used as a gym, office or a 5th bedroom if desired, which is connected to a half bath that easily has room to be expanded to a full bath. Rounding out the lower level is a lavish home theater and copious storage. Finally, above the considerable 3-car garage, are two roomy bedrooms, each with walk-in closets, connected by a Jack-and-Jill bath. This home is an entertainer’s dream, open-concept with amazing flow, whole house indoor and outdoor audio. Newer HVAC systems and a new tankless whole house hot water heater - plus many features in the home allow for app/phone control. Garage is EV ready; the charging station remains with the property, as does the secondary 48” refrigerator. Home is hard coat stucco. You’ll be amazed by every element of this home along with being part of an amazing neighborhood that is truly a community.
