Originally built in 1870 by the James Power family (for whom Powers Ferry Road was named!), this special home resides beautifully on two-plus private and gated acres. In 2002, the home underwent an extensive two-year restoration, renovation, and expansion that preserved the gorgeous wide plank pine floors, gracious stairwell, and original moldings, while updating it for today's lifestyle. The home now features a lovely primary bedroom on the main level with two custom walk-in closets, a spa-like bath with dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a separate Jacuzzi/tub. In addition to the three secondary bedroom suites and bonus room on the upper level, there is also a guest suite on the main level as well as an au pair suite above the three-car garage. The open plan main level features a perfectly located family room in the center of the home, complete with a fireplace and French doors leading to a covered stone patio replete with wood burning fireplace. Steps away is the heated pool and spa, generous poolside deck, and separate pool house. The renovated kitchen is comfortable, spacious, and complete with a large center island, top-of-the-line appliances, wine bar, butler's pantry, breakfast nook, and a cozy, light-filled keeping room with a fireplace. This home flows effortlessly for entertaining while offering the space, charm, and modern conveniences to live, grow and enjoy for years. Finally, this home features a large sun-filled terrace level, perfect for all ages, and ideal for billiards, game nights, slumber parties, watching football and relaxing with friends or family. This unique home is buffered from surrounding noise while being conveniently located near the Chattahoochee Park & river, area private schools, and within the much sought-after Sandy Springs school district.
