$19.8 million Buckhead home sale makes Atlanta real estate history
Primary Content
A Buckhead home has made Atlanta real estate history with its sale price of $19.8 million.
Real estate broker Ben Hirsh represented the seller of 3391 Tuxedo Road in an all-cash, private transaction. Harvin Greene with Dorsey Alston Realtors represented the buyers. The off-market deal, which closed March 12, sets the record as the highest recorded home sale price in Atlanta history, Hirsh said.
The prior two record holders were Tyler Perry’s home on Paces Ferry Road, selling for $17.5 million in 2016, and a home on Valley Road which sold for $18.1 million in 2021.
The 17,000 square foot home — described as “Scandinavian in style with a Japanese vibe in its flow” — was designed with minimalism in mind and plenty of space for a selection of art.
One of the striking elements of the three-level home is a sculptural, floating staircase that features an 18th-century Japanese charring technique called Shou Sugi Ban used to finish the wood cladding of the monolithic wall supporting the steps.
The sellers designed the home in collaboration with local design/build firm Siegel Construction and Design with interior design by Sherry Shirah from New Orleans.
Jackson Fine Art assisted in curating an extensive fine art photography collection for the home. Owner and curator Anna Walker Skillman commented, “The art collection becomes an integral part of a home when curated and placed correctly.” So integral, in fact, that much of that collection is going to stay.
The 3+ acres of land surroundingthe home were landscaped by garden designer Thibault Devillard of Terre Gardens.
“The home itself is a work of art and upon walking in, I knew it was exactly what my buyers were looking for,” Greene said, noting that the new owners sought privacy, manageable space, and a unique design transcending the ordinary.
This sale was also a milestone for Hirsh, who has surpassed the $1 billion mark in homes he has sold in his 20-year career.
