A True Estate Designed to be Experienced and Cherished

Set behind a gated drive on 7.23± acres in the coveted Shadowood Farms community of Milton, this Arts and Crafts–inspired estate is a masterclass in material integrity, architectural restraint and timeless English Country influence. Designed by Daniel DeSantis and Architecture by Historical Concepts, this all-brick residence, softly lime-washed for depth and patina, is framed by a covered front porch and a storybook-style entry door that opens into an inviting foyer and establishes the home’s warm, collected tone from the moment of arrival. Hardwood floors flow throughout the interior, where old-world craftsmanship is expressed through wood-lined ceilings, exposed beams and thoughtfully integrated built-ins. The family room is both dramatic and intimate, anchored by a cathedral ceiling detailed with contrasting wood beams, a stone fireplace, a floor-to-ceiling wall of windows and French doors that draw natural light deep into the space and open seamlessly to the pergola-topped back deck. The sun-drenched eat-in kitchen balances beauty with function, featuring cabinetry extended to the ceiling, a substantial island topped in rich wood with seating, professional stainless steel appliances and granite countertops along the perimeter, creating a space equally suited for daily living and gracious entertaining. The primary suite offers a private retreat with an en suite bathroom with a freestanding soaking tub positioned beneath a soaring ceiling and casement windows, bathing the space in soft natural light. Throughout the home, the Arts and Crafts ethos is evident in the honesty of materials, the warmth of wood and the sense of permanence that defines every room. The outdoor living area are exceptional and intentionally designed. The walkout backyard unfolds into a resort-caliber setting featuring a pool with a full-size lap lane, an integrated spa with a waterfall flowing into the main pool, and a bluestone pool deck enhanced with a pergola and awning. An outdoor fireplace and grilling station create a natural gathering place for entertaining, while English-style gardens and climbing greenery soften the architecture, wrapping the breezeway, windows, doors and garage with romantic charm. A breezeway connects the main residence to the carriage house, where flexibility meets architectural beauty. One garage bay has been transformed into a light-filled yoga studio with cathedral ceilings, exposed trusses and barn doors that open directly to the garden. A dedicated potting room further enhances the estate’s connection to the outdoors, reinforcing its thoughtful, lifestyle-driven design. A two-car attached garage provides everyday convenience, while expanded parking and a motor court accommodate guests with ease. Extensive renovations and improvements completed in recent years include a cedar shake roof, a new HVAC system, a septic tank and pump, spray foam attic insulation, comprehensive landscape and hardscape enhancements, a full exterior façade redesign, carriage house and breezeway additions, pool and decking upgrades with bluestone slate and a PebbleTec finish, integrated sound systems, security enhancements and multiple interior expansions and refinements, all contributing to the home’s elevated yet enduring character. Located within the Summit Hill Elementary, Hopewell Middle and award-winning Cambridge High School districts, the property offers both privacy and proximity, just moments from Bell Memorial Park, Downtown Milton, Downtown Alpharetta, Avalon and GA-400. This is a rare offering where architectural intention, natural beauty, and refined livability converge, a true estate designed to be experienced, cherished and passed on.
