A $13.9 million ‘deal of a lifetime’ in N. Fulton

You think it’s taking forever for your house to sell? Consider Dean Gardens — it’s been on and off the market for 15 years and never sold.

To that end, the 58-acre north Fulton County estate is back on the market and priced to sell at $13.9 million, or so the listing agents hope.

Asking price for the Old Alabama Road property, which includes an eight-bedroom pink mansion, 18-hole golf course and wedding chapel, has ranged from $20 million to $40 million over the years. There have even been a couple of contracts, but none ever closed. The new price should help seal a deal, said Jenny Pruitt, chief executive of Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty.

“In the past, I think the price was too high at $40 million, but this is 58 acres, and I don’t think there is any other property in the area like this,” Pruitt said. “At $13.9 million, it is the deal of a lifetime.”
