High Point

My husband and I are actually considering buying an extraordinary 75-year old home in this area for investment purposes in the next month or so. I found this area when I was referred to a neat little spa nestled nearby. Honestly, when I first visited the High Point neighborhood about two years ago, I did not think ‘much’ about it. After visiting the spa on a regular basis, my opinion began to change. What changed? I began to see new residential investments (new and renovated apartments and bungalow homes), as well as fresh-faced corner cafes/delis.

Located just south of I-20 and to the east of Interstates I-75 & I-85 North, High Point sits in what we hope will be an emerging residential area within a stone’s throw of downtown Atlanta and the Atlanta Hartsfield-Jackson International Airport. Our friends have asked us why we are considering buying here when all they see are really timeworn homes in a ‘marginal’ neighborhood for most. We see much more than just a fledgling neighborhood. We see signs that a younger, hipper set of residents are being drawn in by the low property prices and the promise of future profits. I love the wide streets and the trees – so close to the metro Atlanta area.

Wish us luck! I think it will be a sure bet in a year or two!
