Tucked away on a quiet street in the Ridgemark enclave of Sandy Springs, 8440 Valemont Drive offers the kind of space, elegance, and privacy that feels like a true escape—yet it’s just minutes from city conveniences and the prestigious Cherokee Town and Country Club. Nearly an acre of wooded serenity surrounds this five-bedroom, four-bath home, where you can sip your morning coffee on the screened porch, host backyard dinners under the stars, or simply enjoy the peaceful views from one of three levels of decks and patios. And with the option to join the nearby Huntcliff Swim and Tennis Association, your weekends can be as active or as relaxing as you want them to be. Step inside and you’re greeted by a dramatic two-story foyer, where sweeping travertine stairs with wrought iron balusters make a striking first impression. The main level is designed for both everyday comfort and easy entertaining, flowing from a formal living and dining room into a large, sunlit family room with vaulted ceilings, a cozy fireplace, and custom built-ins. The kitchen—bright and open with white cabinetry, granite countertops, travertine backsplash, and gas cooking—looks out over the backyard, offering direct access to the screened porch and grill deck for effortless indoor-outdoor living. Also on the main level, you'll find a private bedroom with an adjacent full bath—ideal for guests, in-laws, or a quiet office space. Upstairs, the oversized primary suite feels like a retreat, with tray ceilings, plantation shutters, and a walk-in closet complete with a built-in dresser. The en-suite bath is a showstopper, fully renovated in Carrara marble and featuring double vanities, a soaking tub, and a separate shower. Three additional bedrooms upstairs share two updated bathrooms, including a stylish Jack-and-Jill with marble countertops and river rock shower flooring. Back stairs off the hallway provide convenient access to the kitchen and living areas below, maintaining a seamless flow throughout the home. And then there’s the lower level—an unfinished basement with soaring 16-foot ceilings, stubbed plumbing for a full bathroom, and multiple windows and French doors opening to the backyard. Whether you're dreaming of a home theater, gym, workshop, or additional living space, this blank canvas has the light, space, and access to bring those dreams to life. Outside, the terraced and fenced backyard is perfect for kids, pets, or peaceful evenings under the trees. With 0.86+/- acres of land and a location just minutes from the river, schools, shopping, and the Mercedes-Benz campus, 8440 Valemont Drive combines timeless style with unmatched potential in one of North Atlanta’s most desirable communities.
