About This Extraordinary Property
Now Sold — Represented by Will Letton
Designed and built in 1913 by P. Thornton Marye, best known as the architect behind the Fox Theatre, this Italianate masterpiece is one of Ansley Park’s most iconic residences. Perched on a gentle hill overlooking Winn Park, the stucco façade, stone steps, and sweeping brick-lined patio set the tone for the level of craftsmanship found throughout the home.
Inside, Will showcased the property’s architectural integrity while preparing it for market. The foyer immediately reveals the home’s balance of historic character and modern sophistication, with geometric marble flooring, steel doors, and meticulously restored millwork.
The formal living room opens to the front patio through accordion-style doors, anchored by an ornate acanthus-leaf crown molding and a striking Goyard-inspired fireplace. The adjoining family room—complete with judge’s paneling and gallery-style lighting—flows seamlessly into a luminous kitchen featuring an oversized island, marble counters, a bay-window breakfast nook, and a wall of glass doors leading to the rear courtyard.
Upstairs, the primary suite offers a level of luxury rarely found in historic homes: a fireplace, morning bar, steam shower, soaking tub, and a fully outfitted dressing room with a packing island. Additional bedrooms, dual laundry rooms, and a sunlit office/bedroom complete the upper level.
Outdoor living is equally impressive. The gated rear courtyard includes an outdoor fireplace, grilling station with a Big Green Egg, and ample entertaining space—all connecting to the carriage house with a two-car garage and a private one-bedroom guest suite.
Representing properties of this caliber requires a deep understanding of architecture, history, and buyer psychology—something Will brings to every listing. In the Property Tour below, he walks through the home and shares how its story, craftsmanship, and setting helped position it for a successful sale.
If you're considering selling, Will brings this same level of architectural insight, strategic preparation, and market expertise to every home he represents. Connect with him to uncover your property's true potential.
