Living ITP (Inside The Perimeter) in Atlanta can often mean you have to give up many of the features you’d like to have in a home. Like, living in a condominium INSTEAD of a single family home. Ah, never fear, you don’t have to worry! Just take a look at West Highlands!
West Highlands is a new construction single family home community, just minutes West of Midtown in Midtown West! This is a Brock Built community, and having toured these homes on numerous occasions, I can tell you….they are fabulous. Really….for the price of some Midtown Atlanta condominiums, you can have the space of a single family home, new construction, and yet be just a few minutes drive from all the Midtown Atlanta has to offer.
Spacious floor plans can offer a Master on the Main, or unique lofts for that home office space, and 3 to 4 bedrooms. Lots are not huge, but offer just enough outdoor space for entertaining, family activities…and not to much lawn to mow! Granite counters and stainless appliance packages will make your kitchen the focal point of your home!
West Highlands is adjacent to the future Westside Reservior Park, part of the Atlanta Beltline Project. Once completed, this park will be even larger than Piedmont Park! Here is a link to the MasterPlan for the Westside Reservior Park!
Tired of that hour long commute to the burbs of ATL? Why not kick the car (well almost) and instead of sitting in traffic, you could already be home, enjoying a glass of wine on your deck or patio at West Highlands!

Atlanta has a couple things very much in common with Los Angeles. We make movies, and we have some impressive luxury real estate.
The one thing we probably don’t have is a Map of the Movie Stars homes, and paparazzi hanging around outside your front gate trying to catch you on your way to….well, wherever!
Atlanta Luxury Real Estate really DOES come in all shapes, sizes and with a variety of amenities. Whether you choose the convenience of high-rise condominium living, or a sprawling estate with your own baseball diamond and golf course, we can find something to meet your needs.
While in Los Angeles, you may find Beverly Hills, Brentwood and Malibu as locations of choice, here in Atlanta, luxury real estate is not confined to any one area. Yes, you do have Buckhead, which I would say is our “Beverly Hills” in terms of mansions, but other unique homes are locate all over the metro Atlanta area.
One I happened across this week is the luxury estate of former Atlanta Braves Pitcher, John Smoltz. It’s one of those homes you truly would never know about or see because of it’s location and the size. Atlanta and the metro area do have one thing….land…and lots of it. Unlike Beverly Hills, where a $20-30m mansion may sit on an acre or so, Atlanta Luxury real estate can be….well 20 acres!
Foxhollow as we’ll call it (I think an impressive estate should always have a name….right? As I kid I had a make believe estate…it was called Condor Estate….) features it’s own 18-hole golf course, tennis and basketball courts AND a football field! (Now we know what you can FIT on 20 acres!)
The home is actually located about 30 miles North of Midtown Atlanta. Away from the hustle and bustle, but easily accessible. (Especially if you have a driver for your Escalade!) The home has been on the market since December, 2011 and is currently listed for JUST $7,200,000. Annual property taxes for 2011 were just shy of $50,000.
Foxhollow was just featured at PricyPads.com and additional listing information is noted below.
If you are looking for Los Angeles/Hollywood luxury without all the hype, and certainly a lot for your money, let me show you what Atlanta Luxury Real Estate looks like.
We're sorry, but we couldn't find MLS # 4303188 in our database. This property may be a new listing or possibly taken off the market. Please check back again.

If you live in your car, you really might not grasp the concept of walking out your front door, and within steps, be at Starbucks or Gordon Biersch, Fresh To Order, Five Guys Burgers, CVS Pharmacy, Senior Patron’s, a bank, an eye doctor AND a dry cleaners!
But, in Midtown Atlanta, that is all possible.
All those places above? Other than Starbucks, which is….gasp….across the street, all of those places are ON THE SAME SQUARE BLOCK in Midtown Atlanta. Several of them make up the retail portion of Spire Midtown Atlanta! Gordon Biersch and CVS Pharmacy are on the same block as Spire, but free standing buildings.
Can you imagine coming home from work on Friday night ( we are presuming you may have to use your automobile to commute to and from work) and not starting the car again until Monday morning? But during that 48+ hours, you could take in a Broadway play, view priceless works of art, have coffee, breakfast, lunch and dinner and never turn on the stove? If that appeals to you, then Midtown Atlanta IS the place for you!
What does walkability mean to a community? Just take a look!
And when you are ready to enjoy all this, call me and let’s find you that perfect Midtown Atlanta home!

It seems that Chipper Jones has finished up with the Atlanta Braves and his little 23,000 sq. ft. bungalow in North Fulton.
According to the AJC, he’s already purchased another home in the Atlanta area. With such details as 7 bedrooms (lot’s of room for the visiting family?) and a 6- car garage (ok, now I’m in love with it) it’s priced about 25 percent less than the former Atlanta Braves third basemen paid for the home. It’s listed at $3.2 million.
Interested? I’d be happy to schedule a showing for you. I suspect you will need to prove your financial ability to purchase the home first.
We're sorry, but we couldn't find MLS # 5092957 in our database. This property may be a new listing or possibly taken off the market. Please check back again.
