Situated on prestigious Merton Road in Morningside, this extraordinary custom-built estate represents a rare level of architectural craftsmanship and timeless design in one of Atlanta’s most sought-after intown locations. Designed by renowned architect Frank Neely and meticulously constructed by Neil Johnson of Canonbury Homes, the residence seamlessly blends limestone, granite, slate, and curated architectural detailing into a home of exceptional scale and quality.
From the stately porte-cochere and copper gutters to the professionally landscaped grounds, every exterior element reflects enduring sophistication. Inside, soaring ceilings, refined textures, and bespoke finishes create an atmosphere that is both grand and inviting. A dramatic foyer introduces oversized formal spaces including a private office and expansive dining room, each anchored by custom fireplaces and timeless architectural detailing.
At the center of the home, the chef’s kitchen is designed for both elevated daily living and large-scale entertaining. Double islands, hand-carved wood flooring, Ann Sacks tile, and premium finishes connect seamlessly to the vaulted Great Room with exposed beams and generous natural light. Beyond the main living spaces, an iron-and-glass sunroom transitions effortlessly to the resort-style outdoor living environment.
The backyard retreat delivers an exceptional private setting complete with a heated pool, spa, putting green, covered fireside terrace, and multiple entertaining areas designed for year-round enjoyment.
The upper level continues the home’s architectural presence with soaring 10-foot domed ceilings, extensive millwork, and thoughtfully designed private spaces. The primary suite offers a true retreat experience with a spa-inspired bathroom and a private terrace overlooking the grounds. Three additional ensuite bedrooms and a spacious laundry room complete the main upper level, while a separate staircase leads to a private guest suite ideal for additional flexibility and privacy.
The terrace level functions as a destination within the home itself, featuring 10-foot ceilings, a climate-controlled wine cellar, professional-grade theater room, teak wet bar, dedicated fitness studio, and direct pool-level access with a convenient changing area.
Located moments from Atlanta’s premier dining, retail, parks, and cultural destinations, this architectural estate delivers exceptional craftsmanship, expansive living spaces, and resort-inspired amenities in one of the city’s most established luxury neighborhoods.
