Cherokee and Cobb County Neighborhoods

The Towne Lake area of Woodstock GA remains a very sought after area for home buyers “after all these years.” Towne Lake was developed in the early 1990’s and contains 10 or more separate subdivisions that range from the low 100’s up to one million dollars. It was one of the first planned development communities in Cherokee County — with schools, restaurant, shopping and medical facilities all available in the circle of different neighborhoods. Most of the neighborhoods are amenities communities — with pools, tennis courts, playgrounds, and several even offer golf! Lake Allatoona is not far away–and there are nature trails that lead down to the lake all over the area. Exit 8 off of 575 leads you directly into this Cherokee County community and Downtown Woodstock is a short drive away also. Right now there are 35 homes for sale in the Towne Lake area that are priced at 150K or under. These are foreclosures, HUD homes, corporate owned etc. but offer you a great opportunity to buy a home in a fantastic Cherokee community at a price lower than when it was originally built.

There is good news for active adults interested in moving to NW Georgia.  More and more communities are being built and prices are lower than ever!  The Villas at Riverstone are great homes that are now being offered in the low 100’s — many of these have full basements.  Lawn care is taken care of, medical facilities are around the corner — as well as grocery stores, restaurants, and lots of shopping!

The Seasons at Laurel Canyon continues to attract many active adults with the emphasis on ACTIVE.  Their amenities and activity calendar is hard to beat!  If you want to stay active with your tennis skills this is also the community to consider.  Their clay courts are easy on the bones and they have full time tennis pros, lessons, tons of teams at all levels, and lots of tennis always going on.  Of course there are other active adult communities that also would please the active tennis players and I will be happy to send you all the info on those too!

Cherokee County has become a great place for active adults to “retire” to for many reasons.  The medical facilities are abundant and growing - great communities at even better prices– and don’t forget the property tax break (up to 75%) when you turn 62 years of age.  Many active adults are buying their future retirement homes now with prices so low and using them as second homes until they sell their present home.  For more information or to see what NW Georgia has to offer please call or email me — I would love to help you find your next home surrounded by the beautiful North Ga mountain scenery.

When people think about Atlanta they don’t think of it as a homogenous city with diverse neighborhoods.  It is true, Atlanta does not have a Chinatown or SoHo but it actually does have many eclectic and diverse neighborhoods that ooze with history and old southern charm.  Below I am going to name some of the more popular areas in random order:

1.    MIDTOWN.  This area has experienced the greatest revitalization and is a mix of historic neighborhoods and modern skyscrapers.  It also boasts many first-class restaurants and a thriving arts and business district.

2.    DOWNTOWN.  This area has experienced a rebirth ever since the 1996 Olympic Games.  It is home to some of the world’s biggest corporations like Coca-Cola, GA Pacific, BellSouth, and Turner Broadcasting.

3.    BUCKHEAD.  This is a place where old Southern money meets young socialites.  In other words this area is Atlanta’s answer to Beverly Hills.  Here you can find some of the city’s oldest and stateliest homes - including the governor’s mansion.

4.    GRANT PARK.  Just outside of Downtown, this newly revived area is home to mostly Craftsman bungalows and century-old American neighborhoods.  It is experiencing a mini-boom as more suburbanites are feeling the gas crunch and want to move closer to work.

5.    LITTLE FIVE POINTS.  This area can mostly be compared to New York’s Greenwich Village - filled with the sights and sounds of Bohemian life.  Supported mainly by small independent businesses - boutiques, art galleries, theaters, etc - this area is usually teeming with students who live or go to school nearby.
6.    CABBAGETOWN. This once dilapidated area is being revitalized by a growing commercial contingency and adventurous homeowners.  Newcomers are renovating old mill worker’s houses and turning them into artistic residences.  Young families, professionals, and students are attracted by the affordable living.

Seven retail and restaurant businesses have committed to the retail center in Towne Lake just off exit 8 of interstate 575.  The center will be called Madison Pointe and will be a 20 acre mixed use development.  28,000 square feet of shops and restaurants is slated for construction and will include Walgreens, Lee Nail Spa, Kayson’s Grille,  Zucca’s Bar & Pizzeria, Five Guys and Roly Poly Sandwich Shop.  Residents of Woodstock,  Holly Springs and Canton will welcome the added convenience of shopping and eating out close to home!  Along with the commercial development, 95 town homes are planned for the center also.  With a location immediately off the interstate, the convenience of the commercial center,  and the award winning schools - the residential construction will probably be bought out quickly.  For more info on Woodstock or Cherokee County go to www.suesellshomes.com.

John Knox Elementary School opened this past August, 2008.   The school is located in the River Green subdivision in Canton, GA.  The neighborhood motto “home is where the heart is” follows the vision of a planned  community with everything you need located within the boundaries.  River Green has different sections of homes - with varying sizes and pricing.  Townhomes are also available.  The elementary school and child care center are now open and operating.  Two beautiful clubhouses with pools, fitness center and tennis courts are also completed.  Almost all of the walking trails are finished and several of them meander along the Etowah River for a very scenic outing.  Coming soon are a drugstore (CVS) and a grocery store - their opening dates have been moved up due to the building slow-down.  Also other retail and restaurant shops will be coming to the community but have not been determined yet.  “Home is where the heart is” is a great concept with the idea that once you make your commute home from work you do not have to leave your gorgeous neighborhood (RIVER GREEN) because everything you need is right where you live!
