Longleaf is a collection of 46 detached luxury city homes built in 2000 by Hedgewood Homes. The focus on walkability and a renewed sense of community is apparent in the chosen location and more specifically the design and orientation of each of the homes. The extensive landscaping is mature and the homes have cedar roofs and a timeless, cohesive, old-world aesthetic using wood, brick and stone resulting in the opposite of cookie-cutter! The North Buckhead location offers charming tree-lined streets, striking high-rises, single-family homes, quality schools, world-class restaurants and retail, extensive transit connections, abundant green space, and what will be one of the city's best bicycle networks. Literally steps away is Phipps Plaza, the #1 luxury shopping, elevated dining, and modern multi-use lifestyle destination in the Southeast. Along with the 50+ luxury brand retailers, there is a state of the art cinema, Nobu Hotel & Restaurant, brand new 127k sq ft athletic country club with rooftop pool, 14-story Class A office tower, plus a food hall similar to Ponce City Market & Krog Street Market. The ever expanding Path 400 is just at the end of the street and connects to The Atlanta Beltline & Peachtree Creek Greenway. Both campuses of Sarah Smith Elementary and Blue Heron Nature Preserve are also right nearby. The spacious three-story residence is on THE premium lot in the Longleaf development, having only one adjacent home allowing the entire left side to overlook the larger of two parks exclusively for Longleaf residents to use. This lush oasis is often mistaken for the private lawn of 40 Conifer Park Lane! With its flat green space, fire pit, jungle gym, and sport court...it's like having a massive backyard that someone else maintains! Built on a crawlspace, the home has 3 finished levels, all above grade. The sellers just completed a full kitchen renovation, modernized the stairwell with cable railing, and created a much larger and more functional back patio with outdoor kitchen. They also completely reworked the 3rd level creating a new private bedroom with full en-suite bath and a media/game room with a half bath that did not exist before. The 2nd level improvements include: converting an awkward unused sitting area to a bright new laundry room and walkway to the now functional upstairs balcony and one extra large Jack & Jill bath was made into two sparkling new private baths. All the carpet has been replaced with oak site-finished hardwoods. The open floorplan has 2 fireplaces and gets tons of natural light. Main floor has a foyer, dining room and breakfast room, family room and sunroom, powder room and a flex room used as an office, but could be a formal living room or converted to an elaborate mudroom and family ready room. The two car garage has a convenient storage loft. This is the in-town lifestyle you've been waiting for!
