This home on Tuxedo Road was designed by William B. Litchfield, whose clients previously had a formal Georgian home and envisioned an informal stone cottage in the woods.

The home at 205 West Paces Ferry Road, listed for $4.65 million, has three reasons why some folks may want to check it out.

1. It’s on this Sunday’s Buckhead in Bloom event, the Atlanta Preservation Center’s annual tour of homes. And it’s an appropriate spot, with the home on 2 acres and featuring a courtyard, garden, gazebo with granite countertops, an outdoor fireplace, and a saltwater pool and Jacuzzi. You can purchase tickets in advance at the Cathedral of St. Philip Book Store, Boxwoods Gardens and Gifts and The Swan Coach House, on at the home on the day of the tour (tickets are $40 for non-APC members, $30 for members).

2. It’s Philip Trammell Shutze original, built in 1936 and renovated and expanded to about 10,000 square feet four years ago by Harrison Design Associates. The front of the home was designed in the English Regency style; the back is the American Federal style.

3. It’s a bank-owned property, joining others of all price ranges in foreclosure on the market in Atlanta.

The seven-bedroom, 7 ½-bath home, known as The Thornton-Jones House, is listed by Russell A. Gray with Harry Norman, Realtors. There’s ample space for extras like a gym, steam, sauna and a massage room, which has one of the home’s eight fireplaces.

Don’t exert yourself too much this Sunday, though, and enjoy visiting a landmark that’s on the market.

For the home we’re spotlighting on the market this week, this grand Mediterranean-style residence couldn’t hide from us, or anyone.

Adam Ballenger with Keller Williams Realty Atlanta Midtown, says that yes, with 20,000 square feet, the home at 3206 Arden Road is one of the largest homes in Buckhead. He says the price has just been reduced from $3.9 million to $3.75 million.

The home, built in 2003, sits on 1.25 acres and was designed by architect Robert Denson. It holds eight bedrooms, six full and three half baths, plus a wood-paneled library and home theater.

Pillars, balconies, five fireplaces and cathedral ceilings fill some of the massive space in this home, which is vacant.

We’ve bookmarked Realtor Anna Stephens’ Bargains in Buckhead blog, because of its tips on restaurant, store and attraction deals as well as its Buckhead listings, which always catch our eye.

They include this Ashford Park home priced at $350,000. The three-bedroom, two-bath bungalow at 1542 Trentwood Place has just come on the market, listed by Stephens, an agent with Dorsey Alston, Realtors.

Stephens tells us the home, which was built in 1951, has a brand new roof, hardwoods throughout, a covered front porch and a fenced-in backyard. The previous owners used one of the rooms for a nursery, which you can see in the photo . And the location is one of the reasons why people want to live in Buckhead – walking distance to the shops and restaurants on Dresden.

These rainy and overcast days are making some folks long for sunshine,and what better place to enjoy the rays than at home?

This Buckhead residence listed for $2.9 million – the price has been dropped by $600,000 – is just the place, with a pool and waterfall and professionally landscaped 1.5-acre grounds. The nautical theme is seen in the furnishings, accessories and fabrics in the guest house, too.
