Palatial 7BR/8BA retreat minutes from Chastain Park
Derived from Redfin listing LD+JSON
Drive through private gates, follow the long, tree-lined driveway and arrive at a residence that reads like a private country manor tucked inside the city. Set on 4.6 wooded acres in NW Atlanta, this 10,550-square-foot estate balances grand formal rooms with intimate, lived-in spaces. The sweeping front porch and dual staircases introduce a foyer anchored by an impressive chandelier — a theatrical lead-in to the home's many gathering rooms.
The principal entertainment room is designed for hosting: a fireplace, an antique bar that anchors one end, and a pair of French doors that open to dual Juliet balconies and to the patio and pool beyond. Formal living and dining rooms are oversized — the living room with a coffered ceiling and fireplace, the dining room with built-ins and statement lighting — each room offering a distinct mood for entertaining or quiet evenings.
The kitchen and breakfast room are practical and comfortable, featuring abundant cabinetry, a second fireplace, and direct access to a veranda with a built-in BBQ grill. Multiple sets of French doors throughout the main level create indoor/outdoor moments that lead to patios and gardens tucked into the surrounding woods.
Upstairs the primary suite is expansive, accessed through oversized wooden doors and finished with a luxurious bath; additional bedrooms are generous and each bathroom carries its own character. The estate includes two completely separate apartments with full kitchens (one with its own private attached garage) — ideal for extended family, guests, or income-generating use.
Outside is a private leisure sanctuary: a resort-style pool and hot tub with a waterfall accent, multiple terraces and garden rooms, plus a front-yard pond with a small dock and rock steps. A detached three-car garage and a private parking area that accommodates 20+ guests complete the picture. All of this feels astonishingly secluded while remaining minutes from Chastain Park and the dining and amenities of Buckhead and Midtown Atlanta.
5695 Glen Errol Rd NW, Atlanta, GA, 30327
Set in the northwest Atlanta corridor just minutes from Chastain Park, this estate combines woodland seclusion with access to urban conveniences. Residents enjoy proximity to premier park amenities — trails, tennis and concert spaces — plus Buckhead’s restaurants and shops a short drive away. The neighborhood character favors large lots, mature trees and a quieter, private pace while keeping the city’s cultural and commercial destinations within easy reach.
Excellent access to outdoor recreation with Chastain Park nearby, private on-site pond and resort-style pool, plus extensive garden and patio areas for outdoor enjoyment.
This property sits at the high end of the Atlanta single-family market, and its valuation aligns with a premium, low‑inventory niche: large estate parcels inside the 30327/Buckhead corridor are uncommon. The listing’s estimated value midpoint of $3,399,000 and a price-per-square-foot of roughly $322 reflect both the scale of the home (10,550 SF) and the rare land offering (4.6 acres). For buyers seeking privacy plus proximity to city amenities, inventory is typically constrained — houses of this size and acreage do not appear frequently, and that scarcity tends to support seller advantage in negotiations. For sellers, the combination of acreage, gated entry, separate apartments and extensive entertaining spaces makes this a standout listing. For buyers, this is a market where preparedness matters: having financing in place and a clear timeline positions you well when competing for irregular, high-value assets in northwest Atlanta.
