Buyers Fight for Vinings Home, Despite $3M Price Tag

Around here, it's tough to overstate the value of an infinity-edge pool, as Atlantans tend to go gaga for them. Maybe that's what's working for this giant brick house in Vinings, where the backyard pool is infinite — at least until the opposite bank of the Chattahoochee River. An insider says the home has two competing offers, despite the $3 million asking price (various listing services corroborate that it's under contract). And that's after another deal may have recently fallen apart; Zillow indicates it went under contract four days after listing in March, only to reappear on the market last week. What's all the fuss about? Well, this is prime riverfront property and more than 8,700 square feet of tasteful, traditional design, with perks like two carriage houses, a wicked loggia and an unfinished basement to rival IKEA's parking garage. (Added perk: the ability to say you live "on Cochise.") The listing agent calls it "one of a kind," and for that kind of dough in Vinings, it should be.
