Chastain Park
Anchored by Atlanta’s largest park, Chastain Park is a premier Buckhead neighborhood. There are many upscale homes, of diverse architectural styles and ages in this neighborhood. Most of the modest homes have been torn-down for larger homes. The ability to walk to the park, coupled with a great elementary school, places that Chastain Park property [...]
Tuxedo Park
Tuxedo Park is one Buckhead’s most prestigious neighborhoods. The homes are some of the most magnificent in Atlanta. Many are designed by some of the most renowned architects, such as Philip Shutze and Neel Reid, and more recently Bill Baker and William Harrison.
Peachtree Hills
Peachtree Hills is one of the most “affordable” neighborhoods in Buckhead. To put things in perspective, when “affordable” and “Buckhead” are used in the same sentence, we’re talking about some of the homes being under $500,000. Peachtree Hills lies east of Peachtree Road between Peachtree Creek on the south and Lindbergh Drive on [...]
Kingswood Neighborhood in Buckhead
Kingswood is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Buckhead. Located right off of West Paces Ferry Road, it’s an idyllic place. The entire subdivision, is “culdusaced”, which really cuts down on the traffic. Be careful when you drive through, more than likely there will be kids riding their bikes and people walking their dogs.
Here are [...]
Brookwood Hills
Brookwood Hills is a charming enclave on the very southern tip of Buckhead. These Buckhead homes have all the architectural details that you would expect from upscale houses, built before WWII. It’s one of our favorite Buckhead touring neighborhoods. With a great swim tennis club as its anchor, this Buckhead community has [...]
Brookhaven
If you want to be almost guaranteed of seeing someone walking a Golden or Labrador Retriever, then drive through Brookhaven. Some consider it part of Buckhead some think of it as a separate community. Regardless, it has some architecturally significant and truly elegant Atlanta homes. The historic Capital City Club anchors the [...]
Peachtree Park
Peachtree Park is a great neighborhood in the center of Buckhead. It runs along Piedmont Road, right up to the intersection of Piedmont and Peachtree, sitting behind the Buckhead Diner and the Intercontinental Hotel. The northern part of the neighborhood is older, and generally more expensive, than the southern part. Although, since [...]
Collier Hills
I’ve always thought of Collier Hills as those homes on Collier Road and south of the road, but I think, over time, some subdivisions on the north side of Collier Road have crept into the boundaries. Collier Hills ever expanding boundaries are a testament to its desirability.
Garden Hills
Garden Hills was developed beginning in 1925 by the Garden Hills Corp. It was advertised as “Beautiful Garden Hills.” A pool and community center was envisioned at its heart.
Garden Hills is a large urban forest neighborhood between Peachtree and Piedmont roads, bordered on the north by Pharr Road and on the south by East [...]
Buckhead Forest
Buckhead Forest is 165 homes situated amidst the booming commercial center of Buckhead. This tree-shaded neighborhood is bordered by two of Atlanta’s most beautiful and largest churches: Peachtree Presbyterian and Peachtree Road Methodist. Many of the longtime Buckhead residents refer to this neighborhood as the Buckhead triangle, due to its being enclosed within the [...]
