Showings begin at the Open House Sun 7/26 from 2-5 PM. Welcome to Hillside Place, a tree lined cul-de-sac of 11 custom homes in Chastain Park, built by Monte Hewett. Warren T. Jackson Primary Campus is literally around the corner. You can also walk to Sutton 6th Grade Academy and The Galloway School! Leave the car at home for concerts at Chastain Amphitheatre, because you can just walk, stopping by Michelin Star farm to table restaurant, The Chastain, on the way!! You're sure to become a regular at Mount Paran Country Store, and your guests will love when you give them the tour of celebrity homes located right nearby! It's a 5 minute drive to 300 restaurants and 1500 retail shops of Buckhead. Getting to Midtown, Sandy Springs or Vinings is super easy by way of local streets, and easy access to GA 400 and I-75, I-85 or I-285. Needless to say, the location is incredible. 542 Hillside Drive was built in 2007, but the classic design seems current & timeless simultaneously. The house faces North with mailbox and driveway on the side street. The 3 garage bays are not visible when looking at the front elevation of the home and each is electric car ready. The corner lot is almost half an acre, and the saltwater pool is 6 years old. The very private backyard that has turf right up to the pool coping like you see in The Hamptons. The front yard is huge and ready for play when it's not pool time, and the cul-de-sac has a common green space that is perfect for sports, parties or events. If outdoor entertaining is your thing, there's a covered front porch and your favorite "room" might just be the fireside screened back porch with its 24 foot ceilings and adjacent stone grilling porch with permanent gas line. Downstairs there is a huge poolside lanai with multiple seating and dining areas plus a TV. The versatile floor plan of this home could've been built yesterday. The glass paneled front door is uniquely positioned and opens to a small entry and then to a grand, over-sized foyer with beautiful oak staircase and room for a big round table. The formal living room or study has oak panels, a limestone fireplace and can accomodate a grand piano. The dining room will seat 12+ with space for a buffet and large China hutch. The butler's pantry has glass front upper cabinets, lots of serving space, and a Subzero bar fridge. The kitchen has neutral painted cabinets with antique mirrored uppers to give the look of glass but still hide the clutter. The 12 foot island has an extra thick white quartz top, gorgeous square pendants made of urchin bone, 5 or 6 counter height stools and storage galore. There are two dishwashers and a deep porcelain farm sink with a gold Brizo pro-style faucet with pull down sprayer, and a glass rinser. The six burner gas Viking range has 2 ovens, a griddle, and sits underneath a custom oversized vent hood. The herringbone marble mosaic backsplash is uninterrupted and the outlets are hidden underneath the cabinetry. The 48" Viking fridge has integrated panels to match the cabinets, and the hidden walk-in pantry has floor to ceiling shelving. The sunny breakfast room is as large as most dining rooms and the expansive family room with stunning built-ins has a stone fireplace and is wide open to the kitchen. There is a small office, laundry room with sink, mudroom and powder room behind the kitchen along with a large guest bedroom suite. The friends & family entrance and garages are also down this hall. There is a 2nd powder room by the coat closet near the front entry. Upstairs you will find the massive primary suite with a wall of windows, his and hers enormous closets, a travertine bath with separate tub & shower. There's a sitting room plus 3 en suite bedrooms and a huge attic for storage. The basement might be the best part. It is finished to the same level as the rest of the home and features a wine cellar, theatre room, full bar and lounge, billiards room, gym, bedroom with spa bath and a 2nd set of laundry hookups.
