New York is known for its skyline jam-packed with skyscrapers straining toward the clouds. But it’s a sight rarely seen from above, looking down on the penthouses terraces, rooftop gardens, bars, basketball courts, and pools.
Midtown Atlanta has some exciting “roof tops” but they are usually on top of parking decks. Some are actually on the top of the buildings…but probably not as much as New York!

As we take a look at the Midtown Atlanta Market Report for Plaza Midtown, April 2012, we see an emerging trend in Midtown Atlanta condominium sales….The inventory is scarce!!!
I can remember when this building easily had 20 or more homes listed For Sale. But now, just FIVE, yes, 1,2,3,4, FIVE homes For Sale!
The current Average List Price is $300,940. There are two homes Pending Lender Approval with an Average List Pric of $139,900. Two additional homes are Pending Sale with a 2-Bedroom home at $275,000 and a 1-Bedroom at $156,000.
There was just one home Sold, a 2-Bedroom at $219,900.
Last year, 5 homes sold in April, 2011. Two bedrooms had an average price of $225,000 and one bedrooms $118,000
So, we have listings in the $300’s, Pending Sales at $275 and a sold property at $219. Looks like prices are starting to climb in Plaza Midtown. Of course, this upward progress will depend on any additional foreclosure or short sale listings.

Both neighborhoods have a lot to offer. Which is your favorite? Is Midtown Atlanta the more hip, cool place to live? As this Patch.com article suggests, each has something to offer. I think hands down, Midtown Atlanta will win out if you are looking for walkability. Try walking from the intersection of Piedmont and Peachtree (you have several condominium communities right there) to Chastain Park vs. walking from say 7th and Peachtree (you have several condominium communities right there) to Piedmont Park. Hmmmm.

As much as I love My Midtown Mojo…we have to venture out and see what the rest of the world (a.k.a. Atlanta) has to offer. Truth be told…there are some pretty impressive condominium buildings throughout Atlanta. A striking one in every way is Sovereign Buckhead.
I attended a Broker Open House way back in September, 2009 but the building is still as amazing as ever.
Sovereign Buckhead sits atop an office building on Peachtree Road in Buckhead. Since the residences start on the 28th Floor, you can just imagine the vistas that every home offers. The are no 1 bedroom homes, only 2 and 3 bedroom homes, and they are certainly not your 1200 sq. ft. condo we often write about. Two bedroom floor plans range from a “small” 1,563 sq. ft to 3,203 sq. ft. YES, for a 2 bedroom…that big! The photo of me below is taken in the unusal corner of the largest 2 bedroom, but that floor plan is Sold out! (Never fear, still plenty of options available!)
One would expect some outstanding amenities in a building like Sovereign Buckhead…and that they are:
Only 82 residences, starting on the 28th floor
28th-floor Skyline Pool and Spa
5000-sq. ft. staffed executive fitness center
Complete concierge club services
Timeless architecture with traditional interiors
Floor-to-ceiling windows with outstanding views
Membership to the Buckhead Club
Home of Bistro N iko
Extensive art collection procured for homeowners
Sovereign Buckhead. Simply stated….WOW! Intown Atlanta Real Estate does not get much better than this!
As a real estate agent, I am always asked, “What is your favorite Midtown Atlanta Condo building?” Yikes, I’m always cautious to answer that question, because not everyone wants the same things in a condo building. But, I’ll start by taking a look at 860 Peachtree Street, NE, Atlanta, GA 30308….also known as Spire Midtown Atlanta.
I remember purchasing my Spire Midtown condo back in 2004! It reminded me of what the land rush of the 1800’s to the Western U.S. must have been like, minus technology and all! There was a model of the building located in the center of about a 1000 sq ft. sales center located across the street from the actual building site. And on a wall, there was a listing of the unit numbers for each side of the building. In the time I was in the Sales Center, I would venture that a black dot (reserved) went on a unit number every 10 minutes!
The developer hosted several pre-opening parties where you got to meet your new neighbors! Afterall, Spire Midtown was THE talk of the town! It was the first new building in Midtown following the wildly successful Metropolis Midtown. At the first party, we were given buttons that said “I live on the ____Floor!” So you could look for your neighbors! (I probably still have the button somewhere!)
The moral to this story? I think there is still the same passion about living in Spire Midtown Atlanta. There are still many of the original owners that live in the building. Others, like myself, have sold and moved on for various reasons. But the “community feel” of the building still remains.
In the elevator foyer, electronic screens display various pictures of Spire Midtown, taken by residents of the buildings. Most residents come and go from the parking level elevator foyers…those were upgraded in the past few years to feel more like a lobby themselves, instead of a service entrance. The actual lobby was transformed from the original rather plain design to the inviting one that is now. (It was the subject of MUCH controversy and talk and I’ll leave it at that!)
Another unique feature of 860 Peachtree Street NE is that every residential floor has a hugh picture window at the end of the hallway overlooking Peachtree Street. It makes the hallways brighter, and just gives you a place to go and look out if you want to!
There is hardly a bad view from any home in Spire Midtown Atlanta, and the building’s street level retail has developed nicely with mainstays like Fresh To Order and newcomers like Five Guys Burgers and a soon to open Mexican restaurant.
860 Peachtree Street, NE, Atlanta GA 30308. A.K.A Spire Midtown Atlanta Condominiums. A pretty cool place to call home in Midtown Atlanta!
