COMBINED ESTATE OPPORTUNITY

Potential Assemblage for One Signature Luxury Residence

When combined, the two parcels create a rare large-scale estate opportunity totaling approximately 25,334 SF ± (0.58 Acres ±) along the prestigious Briarcliff corridor.

The assemblage offers an exceptional opportunity to develop a landmark custom residence with substantial frontage, enhanced privacy, expanded outdoor living areas, and a true estate-scale presence that is increasingly difficult to replicate within Atlanta’s intown neighborhoods.

The combined site configuration creates flexibility rarely found in intown Atlanta, allowing for:

  • Improved driveway and circulation planning
  • Enhanced separation from adjacent properties
  • Premium architectural street presence
  • Greater outdoor amenity integration

The assemblage is especially attractive for a luxury end user or builder seeking to create a one-of-a-kind signature estate in close proximity to Emory University, Buckhead, Morningside, Virginia-Highland, and Downtown Decatur.

Recent luxury redevelopment trends throughout the Briarcliff and North Druid Hills corridors continue to support strong demand for large custom homes on oversized lots, particularly properties capable of accommodating estate-scale residences with modern amenities and expansive outdoor environments.

REDEVELOPMENT & RECONFIGURATION OPPORTUNITY

Potential Replat Into New Beacon Hill Frontage Lots

In addition to the opportunity to develop the parcels individually or as a combined estate, the properties may also present a compelling redevelopment strategy involving assemblage and reconfiguration into newly created Beacon Hill Boulevard frontage lots, subject to survey, subdivision approval, zoning compliance, and DeKalb County approval.

This approach could allow a developer or builder to reposition the combined site into a more cohesive luxury streetscape fronting Beacon Hill Boulevard while reducing the visual and traffic influence associated with Briarcliff Road frontage.

A replat and reconfiguration strategy may create several potential advantages:

• • Creation of new Beacon Hill addresses
  • Improved luxury residential positioning and marketability
  • Enhanced neighborhood character and curb appeal
  • More efficient lot orientation and driveway placement
  • Greater privacy and reduced direct exposure to Briarcliff Road traffic
  • Ability to design cohesive luxury home elevations and streetscape presentation

Based on the combined acreage and conceptual building envelope configurations, the site may support:

• • Two newly configured luxury residential lots
  • Large custom homes with substantial square footage
  • Enhanced architectural consistency and site planning
  • Premium resale positioning within the surrounding neighborhood

Depending on final engineering, lot layout, grading, and county approvals, newly configured lots could potentially support:

• • Approximate 4,000–5,000+ SF building footprints
  • Potential 7,000–10,000+ SF custom residences
  • Three-car garages and motor courts
  • Pools and outdoor entertainment areas
  • Modern luxury home product comparable to nearby redevelopment activity

The ability to establish new Beacon Hill frontage creates an attractive infill redevelopment opportunity for builders seeking premium residential positioning within one of Atlanta’s strongest intown housing corridors.

Purchasers should independently verify subdivision feasibility, access requirements, frontage requirements, utility availability, stormwater requirements, zoning compliance, and all redevelopment approvals with DeKalb County and applicable consultants.
