Places to Love: Sunnybrook Meadows

Looking for a place to call home in Sandy Springs but you want a modest sized and modest priced home?  Then Sunnybrook Meadows subdivision may be a place to love! 

Located just a few feet from the bustling intersection of widely-known Roswell Rd. & Abernathy (where Aldo’s Italian Restaurant, Nori Nori Japanese Sushi & Seafood Buffet, and Gwinnett College’s newest office is located), Sunnybrook Meadows offers you the charm of Sandy Springs in a more established real estate community, with mostly ranches built in the 1950s – 1980s as the homes of choice.  However, as pictured to the left, there are a few newer, more traditional homes springing up. 

Places To Love: Spalding Woods

Relocating to the Metro Atlanta Area?  Well, then definitely consider making Sandy Springs’ Spalding Woods subdivision home!  As you drive along the serene tree-lined streets, it is easy to feel at home as you see the neighbors’ friendly interactions, the various college football flags waving proudly, and the well-manicured lawns (especially the home that has been awarded the coveted ’Yard of the Month’ sign). 

Although this subdivision is close to one of Metro Atlanta’s busiest streets, Roswell Rd., you have the ease of access to Roswell Rd.’s shops and entertainment venues but the noise and congestion of Roswell Rd. will not bother you once in this community of spacious real estate lots and homes.

Places to Love: City Walk Heights

Live in the lap of Sandy Springs’ luxury in one of the premier gated townhomes of City Walk Heights.  These beautiful homes are prime real estate located in the heart of Sandy Springs near the intersection of Hammond Rd. & Roswell Rd. situated behind the Kroger shopping complex.  I recently previewed this community from a buyer’s perspective so here is my take…

Places to Love: Glenridge Close Subdivision

If you love the charm and character of Sandy Springs, one of metro Atlanta’s most thriving, trendiest communities, then Glenridge Close is a subdivision to note. 

This nice, established community, setback off Glenridge Drive, contains traditional, 2 story homes built in the early 1990s.  Real estate in the Glenridge Close subdivision has sold in the mid- to high $400,000 and typically contain 3-4 bedrooms with 2.5 bathrooms.  It is just minutes from GA 400, I-285, Perimeter Mall and Roswell Rd. all where great shopping and dining awaits you.

As I drove through the Glenridge Close community, it was nice to receive friendly waves and to see neighbors engaged in conversation while tending their well-manicured lawns. 

Places to Love: Sandy Springs’ Ferry Heights Subdivision

Looking for some European flair in the heart of the south?  Well, then explore the gorgeous real estate in Sandy Springs’ Ferry Heights subdivision, located at the intersection of Johnson Ferry Rd. and Roswell Rd.  As a buyer, I love that the homes are in various stages of construction so I can find a fairly new home that still is customizable or I can find a well-established home that is move-in ready.  I also love that these real estate properties contain up to 6 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, and many sit on close to 1 acre of land.  Unfortunately, this is not a subdivision with a community swim or tennis facility but I digress.
