If you’ve ever dreamed of living like the president without leaving Georgia, now’s your chance — for a cool $35 million.
The famous “Atlanta White House,” a three-quarters-scale replica of the actual White House in Washington, D.C., is on the market, making it the most expensive residential listing in metro Atlanta.
Atlanta’s White House Replica for Sale
Located at 3687 Briarcliff Road NE in DeKalb County’s Oak Grove area, the neoclassical estate spans nearly 3 acres and includes two full residences totaling more than 20,000 square feet of living space.
Built in 2001 by Iranian-American developer Fred Milani, the property was designed as a tribute to American democracy.
Milani sent designers to the nation’s capital to study the original 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue, resulting in a striking facade complete with Corinthian columns and iconic architectural details.
The main house, approximately 16,500 square feet, features presidential touches like a replica Oval Office with the Presidential Seal on the ceiling, a Lincoln Bedroom, and a Truman-inspired balcony.
Inside, buyers will find a grand foyer with a sweeping staircase, muraled ceilings, custom chandeliers, and an elevator for easy access to all levels.
The estate also includes a separate 7-bedroom guest house — dubbed a nod to the “West Wing” — along with amenities such as manicured gardens, an oversized swimming pool and jacuzzi, a pool house with outdoor kitchen, a banquet hall seating up to 250, a theater, game room, and meditation spaces.
Current owner Thuy Ai Kathy Lam, who purchased the home in 2013, has called it a symbol of her own American dream.
Lam immigrated from postwar Vietnam in 1995 and built a successful beauty business in Atlanta. She raised her family in the mansion until her children went off to college, prompting the decision to sell.
After Milani faced financial challenges during the 2008 housing crisis, the home was used for events, film shoots, and gatherings before Lam made it her private residence.
Real estate experts note that a sale at the full asking price would shatter metro Atlanta’s record for the priciest home sale, far exceeding previous highs around $18 million.
The property is listed with agents from SERHANT. Georgia, including Tiffany Powell and Tuy Dewey Luong.
National interest has surged recently, with CNN featuring a tour of the home highlighting its unique presidential replicas.
For more details or to schedule a viewing, contact the listing agents. In the meantime, drive-by sightings on Briarcliff Road continue to turn heads — just don’t expect Secret Service at the gates.
