Great Atlanta Condos

We recently listed a large condo at Brookwood Place Condos in the Buckhead/Midtown area.  If you are not familiar with Brookwood Place it is considered a mid-rise luxury condo building located near the Brookwood Split.   This convenient location offers easy access to get over to the heart of Midtown and Buckhead within a matter of minutes.  Prior to entering the building which is located at 1735 Peachtree Street, you will encounter a plethora of restaurants and retail including Borders, Kroger, Spa Sydell, Wolfgang Pucks, and Sage.

The building itself has wonderful amenities including 24 hour concierge,  swimming pool, fitness center, business center and garage parking.

With only 112 condos and 26 townhomes, Brookwood Place is a great alternative to the many hi-rise buildings located throughout Metro Atlanta.

Our listing is a 2 bedroom 2 1/2 bath condo with 1690 sq.ft.  The owner did many wonderful upgrades to the unitincluding custom tile back splash in the kitchen and running that tile above the gas fireplace.  If you spend a lot of your time in the kitchen than you will definitely be pleased with what this kitchen has to offer.  Besides the abundance of storage space, the kitchen boasts granite countertops, gas stove, walk in pantry and a breakfast nook.

One of the best features of this unit is the layout.  It’s really hard to find a condo that flows well and has the space to accommodate an area for entertaining guests.  The separate dining room area could easily fit a 12 seat table and while people gather in the living room they can also sprawl out to the over-sized balcony.

The master bedroom has his and her walk in closets, access to the balcony and trey ceilings.  You won’t be disappointed with the master bathroom either which contains a separate shower and jacuzzi tub.  Double vanities and a linen closet are also  nice features in the bathroom.

If you are looking for a roommate floorplan, this unit definitely provides privacy and both bedrooms are spacious.

I am always impressed with Brookwood Place and it continues to be one of my favorite condo buildings in Atlanta.

Here is a great article from the Atlanta Business Chronicle regarding Atlanta’s Condo Market.

“Atlanta’s intown condo market rebounded this year, as auctions, steep discounts and improved consumer confidence fueled sales, according to condominium research firm Haddow & Co.

One area of Atlanta that I have seen really grow in Atlanta is the Howell Mill area. So many restaurants and retail have sprung up in the last few years that it’s really become a desirable place to live. There aren’t a ton of condos and lofts out this way but there are a few. One of the communities here is M West. M West is one of those lofty townhome communities that is more contemporary in architecture. Currently, they are selling the 2nd phase here, and the incentives are fantastic! First off, M West is FHA approved. That wouldn’t have mattered so much a couple of years ago but in this market it is a critical aspect to obtain a loan. Aside from the FHA approval, they are offering up to $25K in incentives! Like I mentioned, the lofts themselves are fairly contemporary in design, but also have some pretty cool features that are desirable for any buyer. Every unit has a private garage which is pretty much unheard of in the condo situation. They also have their own private backyard area. Definitely a plus in a condo community! So, if you’re looking for a good deal in an very cool area of Atlanta, M West is definitely a community to consider.

Kirkwood Station is a mixed used development located in the heart of Kirkwood.  This development was pretty much completed almost 2 years ago, at that time I thought they were pretty overpriced for the area; however, since the downturn in the market the developer has slashed the pricing drastically making these now a terrific deal.  I recently sold one of the 11 townhomes that they have remaining and I must say I am pretty impressed with the development.  After touring some of the other developments in Kirkwood, East Atlanta and Grant Park I found that Kirkwood Station was probably one of the more well constructed developments.  I was actually surprised to see that they still had 11 units available out of 23.  

 One of the more desirable features that homebuyers are looking for is to be able to walk to things. Recently, Vinocity located their restaurant from Midtown to Kirkwood Station and there are several shops including a furniture store, Mission Motiff; an accessories/floral shop, Gitche-Ya-Ya; and Jasmine Spa. 

  Right down the road from Kirkwood Station are several other restaurants and retail including one of the more popular Pet Stores in Atlanta, Kirkwood Feed and Seed.

Ranging in size from 1,654 to 2,100 square feet, the townhomes at Kirkwood Station offer many of today’s amenities, as well as the charm of historic homes. Designer kitchens overlooking the living areas will feature granite countertops, spacious cabinets, stainless steel appliance packages and breakfast rooms. The luxurious living and dining areas offer nine foot ceilings, hardwood floors and crown molding throughout. The master bedrooms offer double or walk-in closets with ample space, separate his and her vanities in the bathrooms and over-sized tubs and separate showers with ceramic tile.

Their 2 bedrooms units are currently priced at $234,900 up to $312,000 and the 3 bedrooms are starting at $339,000 up to $379,000.  Plus, all of the homes have additional flex space they can accomodate an additional bedroom space or office area.  The developer has slashed the pricing by 20% and is willing to pay $5000 towards closing costs!!

I was looking through the list of condo foreclosures and I found a really good one..Not all foreclosures are great deals but this one seems to be.  It is actually a townhouse located in the Reynoldstown area at the MetalWorks Townhomes.  This is a 2bdr/2ba for $171,500.  Typically these units sell above $250k!!  Plus, is has a private 2 car garage, private fenced in backyard and almost 2000 sq.ft.!! 

I haven’t seen the inside as of yet, usually these homes need a little upgrading because the developer sold them as raw spaces in a sense because he put in low end white cabinets in the kitchens and bathrooms. 

Oh, the best part is the monthly HOA fees are only $54 per month!! 

Metal Works is a newer community(built about 3 years ago) and they definitely live up to there name due to the all metal siding on them. 

Located in Reynoldstown which has grown alot in the last couple of years.  There are several restaurants to walk to and it has easy access to I-20/75/85.

It’s so funny how agents for Atlanta Condo foreclosures market their listings, I swear if these banks had any idea on how these agents advertised their properties they would probably flip out.  It’s no wonder why the banks keep lowering their prices on these condo foreclosures, mainly due to the agent they hired.   Anyway, thanks to  this agent you can pick up this 3 bedroom/2 bath condo over at Centennial House for just $230k.  Why is this an incredible deal??? Well, its a top floor unit with the most glorious views of Atlanta and it has almost 2700 sq.ft.!!   The owner that got foreclosed on, bought 2 units and combined them together to make it one huge condo.  I would guess that this condo could easily sell for $400-$500k in a better market so if you are willing to wait a few years this could be your retirement money!  The big drawback is that the monthly HOA fees are at $900 per month, which most people are automatically turned off by, but with a condo that is located in downtown Atlanta and has that much sq.ft, those fees are pretty typical.

If you are not familiar with Centennial House, it is located in downtown Atlanta, right off the Williams Street exit.  Prior to this year it wasn’t much of a location, because you had to walk a few blocks to get over to restaurants and retail, but now that the W Hotel is about to open and Twelve Centennial Park Condos are now finished, there will be soon much more to walk to.  I hear that a Publix will go beneath one of these buildings and a Mellow Mushroom.  So, the location at Centennial House is becoming more popular.  Plus, you can’t beat having access to 75/85 right outside your front door.

Our office just listed a super cool condo at The Morningside complex located in Virginia Highland and it is super cheap! This 1 bedroom / 1 bath condo is more lofty looking due to the exposed brick, open air ducts and polished cement floors. It’s really rare to find a loft within walking distance to all the shops and restaurants on N. Highland! Truly, this is what everybody wants! It’s a not a huge condo, approx. 700 sq.ft. but it does seem spacious and it has a private patio, which is perfect for those who love to grill! Monthly HOA fees are at $165 month and it does have a separate storage unit!

Typically, condos in Virginia Highlands are in historic older buildings, which this unit is in as well, but the unit is totally updated, the kitchen has granite countertops and Stainless Steel Appliances. Everyone wants to live in Virginia Highlands and not you can because this condo is listed at only $174,900!

One of my favorite condo buildings located downtown is the Museum Tower.  I know that Museum tower is a couple years old now and the hype about it has dissipated, but I really like this building anyway.  The floorplans are really nice and the views from there are just spectacular.  I know you can get gorgeous views from other buildings but the corner units at Museum Tower have a ton of windows that expand the entire length of the unit.

There are a total of 24 floors with about 6 to 7 units per floor.  I really like that because you don’t have to walk down long hallways to get to your unit and it is more quiet without having so many units per floor.  It’s really nice for people that like hi-rise living but really don’t want to be bothered by seeing your neighbors in the hallway all of the time.

You can also walk to Centennial Olympic Park and the Georgia Aquarium.   Museum tower also offers a lovely clubhouse, a huge fitness center, swimming pool, and a gorgeous courtyard for grilling and sitting.  

Prices range from $199,900 up to $600,000.  There are also a couple of foreclosures right now that are extremely good deals.  Unit #1203 is selling at $199,900 with approx. 900 sq.ft. This unit orginally sold at $245k!  Also unit #402 is on the market for $299k with approx. 1200 sq.ft.
