Designed to Erase the Boundary Between Inside & Out

Set on 1.5 private acres along a quiet cul-de-sac, this completely renovated 6,702-square-foot home was designed around one simple idea: the boundary between inside and out shouldn't exist. Brand new French doors greet you at the entry, floor-to-ceiling windows frame the water like living art, and double French doors in back swing open to meet it.

Every room, every sightline, every morning — oriented toward the pond. The kitchen is where people gather. White soft-close cabinets, a massive marble island, and the kind of light that makes you want to linger. Three bedrooms on the main level including the primary suite — stairs entirely optional.

Step through the French doors onto the large back porch — equally suited for watching the game, hosting dinner under the open sky, or simply sitting with a drink while the pond does the rest.

The Community

Atlanta's Best Kept Secret

Smoke Rise is one of those communities that those who live there quietly cherish — and rarely talk about. An unincorporated enclave within the City of Tucker, it sits just east of Atlanta with all the benefits of proximity and none of the compromise.

Long home to Nobel Peace Prize recipients, top professionals, celebrated athletes, and renowned musicians, it carries a quiet prestige that its residents tend to keep to themselves. It's the kind of neighborhood you discover and never want to leave.

It feels like a world away. The drive says otherwise.

The Newest School in DeKalb County

Smoke Rise Elementary is the newest school in the entire Tucker Cluster — a brand new state-of-the-art facility built in 2021, located right at the entrance to the Smoke Rise community along Hugh Howell Road. It is one of the most modern elementary school buildings in all of DeKalb County.

The new building more than doubled student capacity — growing from 400 to over 900 Pre-K through 5th grade students — while maintaining the tight-knit family culture that has defined Smoke Rise Elementary for generations. The school offers music, art, technology, gifted programs, and high achievers programming.

Students then move on to Tucker Middle School and the newly rebuilt Tucker High School — a comprehensive pipeline from kindergarten through graduation, all within minutes of home.
