Bieber home shopping update
Posted by thunsicker in Atlanta Real Estate, Famous People in Atlanta on February 20, 2014
It looks like Justin isn’t ready to commit. According to TMZ, he has decided to rent for three months until he finds that perfect location. Like I said, I didn’t believe the other rumor since that house is so close to the street, but this house, the craziest house in quasi Buckhead (more Sandy Springs than Buckhead), makes sense. His temporary Atlanta home is that of record producer Dallas Austin. The four bedroom 5,500 sq. ft. home resembles a spaceship.
If he wants my opinion, he should just pay the big bucks and buy Tyler Perry’s estate on Paces Ferry Road for $28M. It has the security and privacy he needs, and is such a good location with easy access to I-75 to get intown and go to the airport. This estate would require a lot of upkeep and maintenance with the fabulous grounds and gardens and it comes with quite a hefty tax bill which was reduced in 2012 to $285,000 but was as high as $397,771 in 2010, though, so I guess his search continues… I use to have a listing in Ball Ground that has studio already built in, would definitely give him privacy too. I’ll have to think more about what will fit the bill.
Justin Bieber is home shopping in Atlanta

UPDATE 2/24/2014 Bieber tweeted that he never even looked at this home. There was even a stunt by morning DJ’s that has been published to make fun of the whole thing. Anyway, he’s here in a rental but this is NOT going to be his house. Great publicity for the agent and great exposure for the house is all that really came out of the rumor.
Atlanta is home to many celebrities, and it looks like another one might be heading our way.
Justin Bieber has been looking to make Atlanta his home so he can be closer to the thriving hip hop community. According to TMZ, he has his eye on a sprawling estate off Blackland Road in Buckhead. Listed at $10,950,000, this 16,000 sq. ft., 7 bedroom/13 bathroom home has a lot to offer from energy efficient geothermal HVAC systems to a 70 foot pool/spa, gym, elevator and much, much more.
It is yet to be seen whether he really is interested or if this is just a way to generate interest in this property. According to his published interests – can’t be visible from the street (preferably secluded on 5+ acres), minimum of 10,000+ sq. ft., and lists for between $4 and $10 mil., this may not be the home for him. While the price and size may suit him, we’ll have to see whether he will settle for less acreage; the lot is listed at less than two acres.

Most Expensive Homes for Sale in Atlanta in 2013 – up to $28 Million
Posted by thunsicker in Buckhead, Famous People in Atlanta, State of Real Estate Market, Vinings on January 10, 2013
Yes, we do have a home available in Buckhead, in 30327, on Paces Ferry to be exact, for $28 Million.
Sitting high atop the Chattahoochee River on 10 acres…..the only thing I can imagine one would have to complain about is the Lovett School car pool lines. I remember when the current owner bought the land…it was $10M alone and I’m sure this house is being sold at a loss. This estate has every feature and amenity any executive or celebrity would want.
I have not personally been in the home, but it is a pocket listing in town!
But please don’t just call me up and ask to see these fabulous homes….as with most multi-million dollar properties, you’ll need proof of funds from a local bank and references that can be verified before we’ll show you.
I won’t mention the celebrity’s name who owns this home at the request of the agent, but those of you that live nearby will know the house. The next question is: Where is he going? I don’t know. But don’t worry, he’s not leaving Atlanta.
So below is a little bit about the top four most expensive homes for sale in metro Atlanta as we start looking at 2013.
