Description

Welcome to "The Glasshouse Retreat" - Imagine a place where nature can breathe again-where old farmland, protected for generations by the Pendergrast family, steps gently into the future without losing its roots. That dream has taken form here, in Atlanta's newest conservation community, where nine acres of preserved land cradle an urban farm and homes built with intention. Urbanize Atlanta calls it a "mini-Serenbe," but those who know the land feel something even deeper: a sanctuary rising inside the perimeter, shaped by stewardship and quiet beauty. The Pendergrast family saved this last parcel of their historic farmland so it could become what it was always meant to be-an eco-enclave where people live connected to nature. 20 high-performance homes gather around a thriving one-acre farm, where fruits and vegetables grow through all seasons & are delivered directly to residents' doors. 5.5 acres of woodland, traced by a soft-footed stream, wind through the neighborhood. Trails weave under the trees. A saltwater pool glimmers at the edge of the woods. And in the heart of it all, the Community House brings neighbors together- shared meals, wine nights, yoga, book clubs-while the Maker's Space below welcomes woodworking, art, and hands-on creativity. Two guest suites upstairs give friends and family a place to stay wrapped in comfort. And now, rising from the land, is The Glasshouse Retreat. I am still being shaped, but already I understand my purpose. I will stand lightly here, holding the long views that make this place feel like its own world: the Common Green stretching wide, the farm flourishing just beyond, and the woods folding softly around it all. They have designed me with care. Four bedrooms-three gathered upstairs, one tucked privately on the lower level-give room for family, friends, and life as it changes. On my main level, my Family Room expands onto screened porches on both sides, each framed by a disappearing glass wall. With a single sweep, indoors dissolves into outdoors-the air drifting through, the land coming close. My fireplace warms the center of the room on cool nights. My kitchen flows openly into the dining and living spaces: a huge island for gathering, a scullery tucked neatly behind, and a walk-in pantry ready for baskets filled at the farm. A generous office will hold ideas, calm mornings, and the kind of work that feels easier near the trees. Upstairs, the Primary Suite becomes a retreat within a retreat. The bath offers a spa-like European wet room with a deep soaking tub and multi-headed shower. A private screened porch extends from the suite-perfect for sunrise tea, evening stillness, or simply letting the woods breathe around you. Two additional bedrooms share a beautifully designed bath, and a large laundry room sits conveniently nearby. On the lower level, a private-entry guest suite welcomes visitors with the same quiet views from a covered patio. This space can be whatever the family dreams into being. Every detail leans toward sustainability and long-term comfort: spray-foam insulation, EarthCraft performance testing, solar readiness, EV charging capability, 10-foot ceilings on the main level, and custom cabinetry crafted by a local artisan. And because this home is fully customizable, the family who chooses me can shape every finish-paint, lighting, tile, appliances, flooring-while knowing the essential comforts are already integrated. I have been designed with an elevator, connecting all levels with ease and ensuring the home lives beautifully for decades to come. This is Pendergrast Farm-Atlanta's conservation community-where modern living meets preserved nature, where design follows intention, and where The Glasshouse Retreat waits, ready to welcome the family that will fill it beginning in the summer of 2026
