Deluxe Peachtree Road condo tower serves up first interior glimpses

Condos at a new luxury tower along Peachtree Road continue to be a hot commodity as interiors and amenities round into shape, sellers report.

Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby’s International Realty Intown has provided the first interior condo glimpses while reporting that just 28 residences (of 144 total) remain unsold at The Dillon Buckhead tower, though construction isn’t expected to wrap for months.

That’s a few more inked contracts since July, when the marketing team relayed the building had notched $190 million in sales and was 75 percent sold out.

Units at the Dillon tower—billed as Buckhead’s only option for new luxury condominiums—range from 1,400 square feet to penthouses with nearly 3,700 square feet, each with a private terrace.

According to listing services, Dillon condos without contracts now range in price from $969,000 (two bedrooms and three bathrooms in 1,474 square feet, with $779 monthly HOA fees) up to $2.8 million (two bedrooms and three bathrooms in 2,518 square feet, with similar HOA fees, per Zillow).

One top-floor penthouse that’s pending sale was listed for $4.2 million, the priciest listing to date.

Work on the 18-story building—the second Atlanta project for Palm Beach-based developer Kolter Urban—kicked off with demolition of low-rise structures at 2425 Peachtree Road in summer 2022.

The 144-unit project topped out last fall, and finishing touches such as landscaping are now going in at the Dillon’s amenity areas, which are expected to cover more than an acre of total space, both indoors and out. The full building remains on pace to be finished and see first move-ins in the fourth quarter of this year.

The Dillon’s perks call for concierge services, a formal clubroom with a catering kitchen, a dog park, pool deck, outdoor yoga terrace, a speakeasy, a media room with a game simulator, and a pickleball court. An indoor-outdoor section called The Hub will offer both private and semi-private workspaces for the WFH set, plus a conference room. Elsewhere, some condos will be held as guest suites, officials have said.

In earlier phases, the building’s Sotheby’s sales team said Dillon units were landing buyers at “record levels.” That included $62 million in pre-sales in 2022 and another $30 million in contracts inked across March and April alone last year.

Most buyers are downsizing from larger single-family homes and seeking a highly amenitized, low-maintenance lifestyle in a walkable location, sellers previously told Urbanize Atlanta.

At The Dillon, two Atlanta-based companies—The Preston Partnership (architecture) and Integra Construction (general contracting)—are part of the development team, alongside interior designers ID & Design International.

Nearby on Peachtree Road, Kolter Urban’s first foray into the Atlanta market, the 22-story Graydon Buckhead, saw condo prices begin at $1.7 million and climb to nearly $9 million for a penthouse covering the full top floor before the building sold out.

Like The Dillon, the 47-unit Graydon remains a relative anomaly in terms of Atlanta multifamily ventures the past decade. It marked the largest intown condo project between Buckhead Village’s The Charles and the 279-unit Seven88 West Midtown tower on West Marietta Street in recent years.  

Kolter Urban purchased the Dillon's required three parcels—located next to the Peachtree Battle Promenade shopping center, home to Whitehall Tavern and a Publix—in 2021 for $16.5 million. To the immediate south, roughly half of the historic book bindery building, formerly home to Peachtree Battle Antiques and Interiors, has been preserved, including the brick house-like structure that fronts Peachtree. The Dillon’s sales center has taken that space.
