From the street, the Sofi house on Peachtree Road looks like every other gated Buckhead estate: a wall of ivy, a circle driveway, a porte-cochère that hints at what lies beyond.

But step inside, and you realize why this house has been featured in three movies, two television series, and a half-dozen architectural magazines.

The 14,000-square-foot home was built in 1929 by a cotton magnate who wanted a country estate close enough to downtown to be convenient. His great-granddaughter, who asked not to be named for privacy reasons, gave WACN 21 a rare tour on a recent Sunday morning.
