"It is by far the most expensive home sold in Atlanta in over a year. In the past year, the second place went to 2000 Garraux Road which sold at $6 million in August of 2015 and is located by Tyler Perry's back gate," noted Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices agent Tina Hunsicker, who was not affiliated with the sale but congratulated the agents, with a different firm, who closed the deal.
