An elegant estate home is for sale in the Capital City’s prestigious and secluded Greystone neighborhood. Both the home’s spacious kitchen and master suite have been updated. 

The five bedroom and four-and-a-half bath home sits amid 2 acres along Greystone Place. The Greystone neighborhood is situated just west of Bell Road off Monticello Drive. 

“Greystone offers some of the most beautiful homes in the Montgomery area,” Realtor Anna Kate Bowen said. “Each home sits on a 1-to-5-acre lot. Styles include gorgeous Mediterranean homes, Old World style with sweeping roof designs, and charming Georgian homes. All of the homes were custom designed and offer a lot of impressive features inside and out.”

Construction in Greystone ranges in the time from near 1990 into the 2000s, Bowen added. 

“Greystone is a popular location for professionals who work downtown and/or want a convenient east Montgomery address but still have quick access to the Bypass, Bell Road, and I-85 for their morning commute,” Bowen said. “Greystone has large estate homes and classic and impressive architecture with well-manicured lawns.”

The 4,490 square foot home and property at 6016 Greystone Place are for sale for $890,000. The house was built in 1989. 

The kitchen update was led by internationally renowned interior designer Jimmy Sellars, Bowen said. “The kitchen features a copper hood, stone countertops, Wolf gas range with pot filler, Wolf double ovens, warming drawer, and built-in ice maker,” she said, adding that other improvements include a tongue and groove wood ceiling, gorgeous custom cabinetry, Chicago brick backsplash and floors, and custom banquette for breakfast seating. “The kitchen adjoins a lovely side porch for enjoying morning coffee.”

The master bath also has undergone an extensive update. “And new wood floors have been added to the master suite, guest suite and halls,” Bowen said. 

“It’s hard to find a home that has had a true kitchen renovation. Most homes just update the countertops and appliances,” Bowen said. “But this renovation really transformed the space. The homeowner wanted it to be a space to enjoy with their family daily, entertaining at holidays and even leisurely breakfasts in the mornings. We all spend so much time in the kitchen cooking and entertaining, it’s the best space in your home to invest in.”

The inside also includes a fireplace, spacious guest suite, second floor bonus room, and oversized two-car garage with large utility room.

On the outside, the property’s value is increased by a circular drive, fresh new landscaping, and an irrigation system fed by a private well.  

“A home of this quality could not be replicated for the list price. Today’s construction costs are so high just finding the perfect site to build could cost close to a third of this list price,” Bowen said. “If you are looking for a fine home, with a quiet location and want a neighborhood where all the homes are uniquely their own, with some privacy between you and your neighbors but also want to be convenient to the city, schools, shopping, and restaurants, Greystone is absolutely one of the best options in Montgomery County.”

Directions: From downtown Montgomery, drive east on Atlanta Highway past Faulkner University and Frazer Church. Take a right onto Bell Road and travel south. Take a right onto Monticello Road North, which turns into Greystone Place.
