A truly rare offering, Boxwood is one of the oldest and most distinguished estate properties in historic Druid Hills, dating to circa 1910 and reflecting the neighborhood’s earliest era of grand “country place” homes. Designed by renowned Atlanta architect Edward Emmett Dougherty, also architect of the original clubhouse at Druid Hills Golf Club, this remarkable residence was built for Coca-Cola executive and designer Charles Veazey Rainwater, who developed the iconic contour bottle for The Coca-Cola Company. The stately brick home is defined by extraordinary scale and architectural presence, with grand formal rooms, soaring ceilings, multiple fireplaces, and beautifully proportioned living spaces rarely found in modern construction. Designed for entertaining and gracious living, the fi ve-bedroom main residence combines historic craftsmanship with thoughtful modern updates, including a new barrel tile roof that enhances both durability and architectural character. The grounds are equally impressive. Once part of a larger early estate celebrated for its gardens, the property still showcases mature landscaping, terraces, and sweeping lawn areas, with the extensive boxwood plantings that inspired the home’s name continuing to frame the gardens and outdoor living spaces. A charming carriage house with two additional bedrooms above a four-car garage provides exceptional flexibility for guests, a home office, or studio space—features rarely found in historic Druid Hills properties. Situated just minutes from Emory University, the CDC, parks, and the shops and restaurants of Virginia-Highland and Ponce City Market, Boxwood offers the unique opportunity to own a piece of Atlanta’s architectural and cultural history. Properties of this scale, pedigree, and historical significance seldom come to market, making Boxwood a truly special and irreplaceable offering in one of the city’s most treasured neighborhoods.
