The interiors flow seamlessly, anchored by a recently updated kitchen connected by sight lines that always lead back to the falls. A spa-like primary suite boasts a Japanese-inspired garden and bath, creating a personal retreat that feels rooted in calm and balance. Own one of Atlanta’s most storied midcentury homes, with one of the largest private waterfalls in any metropolitan area in the country, all seamlessly situated on an old-growth  forest."
