π¦’ Swan House: A Gilded Time Capsule in Atlanta's Buckhead π°οΌ2οΌ
π³ Grounds & Gardens: The estate's 33 acres are a botanical dream. Stroll through: Italianate Gardens: Fountains, boxwood mazes, and wisteria-draped pergolas πΊ. 1920s Vintage Vibes: The original garage now houses a exhibit on Atlanta's automotive history π. Film Location Fame: The Swan House starred in The Hunger Games: Catching Fire π¬βspot the Capitol scenes! π€ Honest Review: While breathtaking, the Swan House doesn't quite reach "Top 10 U.S. Mansions" status for this seasoned traveler. π§ After visiting 80+ estates (Biltmore? Check. Hearst Castle? Check.), I'd rank it... mid-tier luxury. The real magic lies in its contextβa preserved slice of Old South wealth contrasting sharply with modern Buckhead's iron-gated mansions πͺ. π Neighborhood Vibes: Drive 5 minutes post-tour, and you'll enter a surreal world of: Mini-Estates: McMansions with motor courts and 8-car garages π‘. Celeb Sightings: Rumor has it Tyler Perry owns land nearby π¬. Peachtree Road Charm: Upscale boutiques and rooftop bars dot this zip code ποΈ. π·οΈ #SwanHouseSoiree #AtlantaArchitecture #GoneWithTheWindVibes
