Milton Meets Monticello In This Estate Home In The Heart Of Milton
By Robert Strader on August 18th, 2010
Someone once said “A bargain isn’t a bargain if you don’t need it”. I don’t know if anyone really needs this Gorgeous Estate Home in Milton, but it is a bargain.
LOCATION: Milton, GA
PRICE: $11,500,000
SIZE: 13,043 square feet (approx.), 9 bedrooms, 9 full and 2 half bathrooms plus a 3 bedroom, 2 bath caretaker home.
Sited on 67 acres of meticulously manicured and landscaped land it’s truly a marriage between home and property. Designed by Stephen Fuller, it is a Jeffersonian estate home rivaled by no other in Milton. Details include 12 foot ceilings, 6 car garage, gated entry, 850 feet of lake frontage, walking/hiking or horseback riding trails, pool, tennis, basketball, multiple equestrian pastures and a guest cottage.

Is it a bargain considering that Dean Gardens sold for a measly $7.6 million? Sure, it isn’t pink. It’s also not on the river.
Lee – 67 acres in Milton!?! If the big, pink gaudy elephant… er I mean Dean Gardens was so great it would have sold along time ago and the owner wouldn’t be bulldozing it.
Lee, It’s a completely different product. No, it is not on the river, but it is on a lake with no visible neighbors…Unlike Dean Gardens, This is a timeless and classic estate property. In it’s current form, this is a move-in condition private estate. Dean Gardens was a tear down. The potential for this property is vastly superior because of its location – 5 minutes from Downtown Alpharetta, 5 minutes from Windward Parkway, etc…
It could be developed, unlike Dean Gardens (no thanks to the good folks in CCOS) or it could be an equestrian estate.
The detail, design and attention to detail are something that I wish every home could be built with.
