Ansley Park
Located just north of downtown Atlanta in an area ‘bounded’ by Peachtree Street, Beverly Road, Piedmont Road, and 15th Street, Ansley Park is home to some of Atlanta’s most decorated residences and in fact was home to the Georgia Governor’s Mansion for decades. Wide streets and many green areas and small parks provide a quiet oasis within walking distance to the High Museum, Piedmont Park and other desirable venues.
East Point
East Point is a city of approximately 40,000 people just south of downtown Atlanta. It offers a small town feel with big city convenience! Over the last few years, East Point has enjoyed a revitalization of the businesses on the town square, with a number of new shops and restaurants opening. Many neighborhoods, some featuring brick ranches generally built in the 50’s and 60’s and others, especially those closest to the square have historic homes built between the late 1800’s and 1940.
Loring Heights
A cozy neighborhood of approximately 300 homes nestled between Peachtree Street, Northside Drive and Atlantic Station, Loring Heights is convenient to downtown Atlanta to the south and Buckhead to the north. Many residents are young families and singles who enjoy the close proximity of shopping, restaurants and excellent dining.
West End
The West End Historic District contains a rich mixture of architectural styles popular in the late 19th and early 20th centuries. Styles include Craftsman bungalows, Victorian, Queen Anne, Colonial Revival, Stick Style and Neoclassical Revival. Today, many of these magnificent homes are being restored and a new sense of community has returned. Located minutes west of downtown Atlanta off I-20 also features new and older commercial pockets.
