"THE BROOKS MANSION" An exquisite replica of Marie-Antoinnete's "The Petit Trianon Palace" that was built in April 1774 and given to her by her husband Louis the XVI. It was a perfect example of the "Greek Style" that was sweeping through Europe in that era. Mrs. Virginia Brooks traveled extensively... on one of her visits to Versailles France she fell in love with this palace and wanted one of her own...so she ordered it! The shipment of Italian stone was in "kit form" and each stone was numbered to be put in an exact place. Mrs. Virginia prided herself in the fact that her house design has two more windows than Marie-Antoinnete's! This magnificent 12,482 sq ft (7,223 Heated) home on 48 acres has graced Atlanta Texas with it's opulence since 1960 when it was completed. The home has marble and hand crafted wood floors, high ceilings (approx 12'), three fireplaces, and multiple Living Areas. There are 7 bedrooms, 7 baths and 2 half baths (not including the Maid's Quarters). All bathrooms are marble, some with sunken tubs and separate showers. The bedrooms are massive, each equipped with an array of closets...several with built-in drawers, and each room has its own bathroom. Every room has double French Doors adorned w/vintage hardware. The Kitchen was of forward thinking design, "state-of-the-Art" 1960's style, equipped w/an Island, Indoor Grille, Double Oven, and a huge food prep Pantry Room. Words cannot begin to describe this unique Greek Style Palacial Masterpiece...this home must be seen to experience its full grandeur! Make an appointment today!
