Luxurious Buckhead Real Estate

It has been called "The Beverly Hills of the East." Buckhead is, indeed, an exceptional place. It is a community that shines with vitality and vision. Buckhead is one of the country's largest urban mixed-use development areas, combining major offices, retail outlets, hotels, restaurants, entertainment spots and high-rise residential units within its commercial core. And closely surrounding its bustling business center, beneath a community-wide tree canopy, are serene and stable neighborhoods. Buckhead is a city by every definition except incorporation. With more of an upscale twist, beautiful homes, and great shopping, this is the area to thrive. Everything is here, and everyone is welcome. It's a great place to visit, to play, to work, to live. It's such a major part of Atlanta that if you don't know Buckhead, you don't know Atlanta!

Buckhead real estate is ideal for those who hope to find a glamorous home with no expense spared. Buckhead's downtown area, generally demarked as the intersection of Peachtree and Paces Ferry Roads is clean and safe, and is home to many fine shops, restaurants and day spas. Arguably, both the city's best steak and finest seafood are to be found within a literal stone's throw of each other, the former lodged on the ground floor of the tallest building on Peachtree (Chops), and the latter set off by a four-story, cast-bronze salmon (some say trout) that towers over Pharr Road (Atlanta Fish Market).

Discover Buckhead Condos For Sale

As you move away from the bars and shops of ground zero Buckhead, a growing battalion of high-rise luxury apartments and condos attracts the city's most prosperous up-and-comers. Gradually, small skyscrapers are beginning to dot the landscape of Buckhead's perimeter commercial area, as office space and Buckhead condos for sale are sold at an astronomical premium.

If you're tastes prefer something more exclusive and private, perhaps a Buckhead estate is more to your liking. Some things resist change more strongly than others, however, and the tree-lined neighborhoods west of Peachtree, especially along Paces Ferry Road, live on as exquisite enclaves of old Atlanta money. Just a mile down this awe-inspiring stretch of road from the rollicking, disco-themed Have A Nice Day Cafe sits the august Georgia Governors Mansion. Many local celebrities and the families of early Atlantans make their homes in the wooded estates scattered hereabouts. A casual driving tour through these gently winding backstreets has a tendency to make one feel like a rolling prop in a pictorial out of Southern Living or Architectural Digest. The paradoxical proximity of these bucolic streets to crowded and hectic Peachtree Road is at the heart of contemporary Buckhead, and is perhaps what gives the neighborhood such wide, energetic appeal.

Central Buckhead Homes

If you're not in a strictly business rush (and your wallet doesn't mind), the central location and frenetic activity of Buckhead make it an ideal spot to stay.

Not only are the shops amazing, but the fine dining is more than appetizing! Phipps offers a fine range of good food such as Davio’s, a mouthwatering Italian experience. On Friday or Saturday evenings, you can find good company, music and delicious food at Twist or The Tavern at Phipps. A stop light away resides Lennox Mall. Lenox Square Mall is always busy with its multi stories, endless shops. Every year, Macy’s holds a Christmas tree lighting for the residents of Atlanta. One of the largest tree’s you could ever imagine sits high on the roof of Lennox Mall lit with lights and decorations. Another holiday treat is that during the fourth of July, Lennox has a beautiful fireworks display. If the restaurants, shopping, and nightlife aren't enough for you, never fear. The Atlanta History Museum sits at the center of it all on West Paces Ferry Road, watching the progression, keeping careful records of Buckhead's latest transformation.
