Property Description
intown neighborhoods. Created by pioneering design-build icon Bryan Craig this showpiece blends striking modernism with tranquil privacy.
Arrival is cinematic: ascend a lushly landscaped stair path welcomed by a towering glass façade opening into a dramatic, multi-level foyer wrapped in windows and crowned by contemporary lighting. The entry sets the tone for the light-filled sophistication beyond.
Inside, soaring 12-foot ceilings and oversized floor-to-ceiling windows flood the home with natural light. Gleaming hardwoods run throughout—including all bedrooms—while a sculptural floating glass staircase anchors the multi-level layout with quiet drama. Custom lighting by Lighting Loft, controlled remotely, illuminates key architectural moments and art installations throughout.
The main level is thoughtfully arranged for both everyday living and elevated entertaining, with a formal living room wrapped in floor-to-ceiling glass overlooking Lavista Park and an adjacent dining room that flows effortlessly into the central living spaces. A separate family room with a
sleek linear gas fireplace resides next to the open-concept kitchen, where clean-lined design meets maximum functionality. Features include custom flat-paneled cabinetry, crisp quartz counters, dual full-size sinks, twin dishwashers, double ovens, a walk-in pantry, and an architectural backsplash tying everything together. Transom windows replace upper cabinets to preserve clean sight lines and natural light. A dramatic brick feature wall flows from the outdoor elevation into the heart of the home, blurring the line between inside and out visually connecting the resort-inspired yard to Lavista Park on the opposite side.
Glass doors open to an extraordinary backyard retreat all finished in imported Turkish marble. A PebbleTec heated saltwater pool with sun shelf, three waterfalls, and infinity edge anchors the outdoor experience, complemented by lush landscaping, a built-in stainless grill and ice maker, and multiple entertaining zones. At the edge of the pool, a sculptural gas fire pit glows beside a cascading waterfall that spills into a tranquil stone fountain—an unforgettable visual and auditory focal point for moonlight cocktails and conversations. The entire outdoor environment—lighting, sound, and pool systems—is fully
automated and controlled from your own phone.
The main-level primary suite overlooks the resort-style grounds and features a spa-like bath with double shower, soaking tub, backlit mirrors, and a massive walk-in closet. Upstairs, two spacious guest suites accompany a covered rooftop terrace with fireplace, wet bar, full bath, sound system, and skyline views—perfect for open-air entertaining or quiet moments above the treetops.
The finished terrace level offers an additional guest suite, generous bonus/flex room, second laundry room, separate entry, and plumbing for a future kitchen—ideal for an au pair, long-term guest, or multigenerational living. A fully finished two-car garage includes EV charging, and the
utility room offers additional storage.
Additional features include whole-house audio (including rooftop and pool), freshly painted exteriors, app-controlled lighting on dimmers, full irrigation, and perimeter fencing with security cameras. A full solar panel system provides low-maintenance, energy-efficient living through a
self-sustaining closed-loop design.
Situated in Lavista Park—an architectural enclave known for its leafy streets, green space, and unmatched centrality to Emory, CHOA, the CDC, Midtown, and Buckhead—1242 Wild Creek Trail is not just a statement of visionary modern design but a lifestyle destination in the heart of
the city!
