700 Island Drive NW

Tucked behind gates on two supremely private and manicured acres, this 2019 Sandy Springs residence offers a rare combination of seclusion, scale, and modern refinement. Enveloped by a canopy of mature trees, the setting feels worlds away, yet the home sits just minutes from Chastain Park. Designed for both grand entertaining and private retreat, the main level is anchored by an expansive great room where walls of glass capture uninterrupted forest views. A modern chef’s kitchen—equipped with Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances, a Hestan professional range, and a spacious walk-in pantry—opens through dramatic accordion doors to the covered and vaulted fireside porch, creating seamless indoor-outdoor living. Adjacent to the kitchen, a butler’s pantry connects directly to the dining room and features a built-in coffee system, wine bar, and additional prep space. The main level also provides the convenience of a primary suite with dual closets and radiant-heated bath floors, a dedicated office, formal dining room, laundry room, and elevator access to all levels. Upstairs, four ensuite bedrooms include a generous teen suite with sitting room and desk alcove, along with a second laundry room and large walk-in storage room. The newly completed terrace level was designed by architect J. Steven Kemp, and features an open-concept laser-projected home theater with 13-foot screen, multiple game and recreation spaces, a wet bar, a fitness studio with mirrored walls and infrared sauna, powder room, and an additional ensuite bedroom. The property offers two distinct and idyllic pool sites, one directly accessible from the walk-out main level and another off the terrace, providing flexibility for future resort-style amenities. Enhancements include a whole-home generator, HEPA-filtered HVAC with UV lights, programmable Lutron lighting, advanced security and camera systems, EV charging stations, and a three-car garage with dog wash station. Immaculately maintained and supremely private, this estate represents a rare opportunity to enjoy mountain-like serenity in the heart of Sandy Springs, affording easy access to Atlanta’s best private schools, all major highways, and myriad shopping and dining opportunities.
