The Castle at Cromwell stands as an extravagant tribute to the 14th-century Chateau de Chenonceau, an exquisite estate nestled along the River Cher. A more modern rendition, this Georgian-style castle was constructed in 1996, spanning an impressive 12,000 square feet. Its grandeur comprises six bedrooms, five full bathrooms, and four half-baths. Embracing an expansive 1-acre plot, this property is nestled within one of the nation’s most affluent communities.

While the true value of the property lies beneath layers of time and requires significant restoration and renovation, its potential shines through. Anastasia Nevtonova, the listing agent, estimates that recreating this property today would command a staggering $5.5 million. Originally listed earlier this year for just under $1.5 million, the recent price reduction transforms this castle into an enticing opportunity for those seeking a regal retreat within Atlanta.

The location and prestigious history of the neighborhood serve as compelling factors that may justify the price. Former residents of the Country Club of the South community include luminaries like Whitney Houston, Bobby Brown, Usher, and Allen Iverson. More recently, members of the Migos group, including Offset, Cardi B, and Bob Whitfield, have also been associated with the property.

Quavo, a prominent hip-hop artist and one-third of Migos, was among the notable figures to reside here. The castle even boasts a concealed entrance leading to the Atlanta native’s recording studio.

Inside, a majestic living room with an intricately detailed honeycomb ceiling grants access to a European-style courtyard featuring a petite pool, a graceful fountain, and a suspended garden. The property further encompasses two offices with separate entrances, two staff residences complete with kitchens and laundry facilities, accommodations for live-in help, and multiple garages.

Within the gated community, residents can revel in an array of amenities, including a Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course, tennis courts, swimming pools, basketball courts, as well as scenic walking and jogging paths. The Castle at Cromwell embodies both a sense of historical homage and a contemporary haven of opulence.
