The Atlanta real estate market is continuing its steady
climb, and active adult homes have been a large part of the new construction
that is underway across the metro area. According to a recent article in KNOW Atlanta magazine, the metro Atlanta
area is one of the top places to retire.
The Orchards Group, a premier active adult home builder in
Atlanta, has seen a huge increase in sales this year. Director of sales and
marketing for The Orchards Group, Mitch Block, says he expects both of their
metro Atlanta communities to be completely sold out of single-family homes by
the end of this year.
The Orchards of Brannon Oak Farm, located in Cumming, has
only one single-family home remaining. With 2,400 square feet of living space,
this Magnolia plan has two bedrooms and two bathrooms, plus an additional
activities suite upstairs with a full bath. Construction on the home has just
begun, leaving the new home owner plenty of time to make interior design
selections for the home, including flooring, countertops, lighting and paint
colors.
At The Orchards of East Cherokee in Hickory Flat, there are
only five basement sites still available for single-family homes. All of the
non-basement home sites in the community have already been sold! According to
Block, many of the new homeowners have chosen to finish the basements in their
home, providing them with extra living space that is perfect for a media room,
additional guest bedroom and activity or party rooms. The basement home designs
at The Orchards of East Cherokee are priced from the low $300,000s.
All of the communities built by The Orchards Group provide
maintenance-friendly lifestyle for their residents. Regular landscaping,
including mulch replacement, weekly cutting, chemical treatments and an
irrigation system are all part of the services provided through the homeowner’s
association.
Both active adult communities also feature an amazing list
of amenities, including a swimming pool, barbeque grilling area and a grand
clubhouse with a gourmet kitchen, fitness center and card and game rooms. In
addition, each community has unique outdoor living areas, such as the waterfall
sitting plaza at The Orchards of East Cherokee and the fire pit at The Orchards
of Brannon Oak Farm.
