About This Home

A rare opportunity to own a truly remarkable estate, this European-inspired country manor is gracefully sited on 52 quiet, rolling acres of pastoral and wooded landscape in Chattahoochee Hills, Georgia, just five minutes from Serenbe. Designed by world-renowned architect Peter Block and masterfully built by Bobby Garrett of Garrett Ingols, this residence is a study in timeless design, craftsmanship, and integration with nature. From every angle, the home feels anchored into its surroundings, with stone terraces, gardens, and panoramic views creating a seamless indoor-outdoor connection. The interior features hand-troweled plaster walls, arched passageways, and a barrel-vaulted great room ceiling illuminated by delicate fiber-optic lighting, evoking an atmosphere of quiet grandeur. French windows flood the space with light, framing views of meadows and forest beyond. The cathedral-style kitchen is a culinary masterpiece, featuring a seven-foot Lacanche French range, a brick cooking fireplace with operable grate, commercial refrigeration, and open shelving that merges beauty and function. A scullery, pantry, and culinary garden extend the kitchen’s utility, while adjacent gathering spaces- each with a wood-burning fireplace or stove- invite warmth and conversation. The owner’s suite on the upper level exudes serenity, with a vaulted ceiling, private sitting area, and spa-inspired bath complete with imported stone sink, oversized shower, and private wardrobe room opening to an intimate terrace perfect for morning coffee. An additional guest suite wrapped wall- to wall in casement windows offering peaceful views in every direction, is a welcoming haven for guests or family. The top floor hosts a media lounge, yoga studio, or artist’s retreat tucked beneath the roofline. This exceptional estate blends Old World artistry with modern sustainability, featuring geothermal heating and cooling, radiant floor heat, solar energy, UV water filtration, and a whole-house generator. A gated entrance, fiber-optic internet, yoga platform, and children’s tree fort complete this private sanctuary. An architectural triumph set amid the rolling hills of Chattahoochee Hills, 7455 Old Rico Road embodies the rare harmony of design, landscape, and lifestyle—offering European refinement just minutes from the community and wellness culture of Serenbe.
