Vinings Neighborhoods
Avignon at Vinings
Avignon at Vinings is an elegant new construction community within walking distance of the heart of Historic Vinings and Vinings Jubilee. These country manor style homes are exceptionally well built and have top of the line finishes throughout. Gourmet kitchens, butler pantries and covered verandas are all standard. Some even have private libraries, elevators and skyline views of Atlanta.
A fabulous club house and swimming pool are located at the center of this gated community. Originally priced at nearly $1.4 million each, a few homes have now been reduced to the high $800,000s.
Originally built in 2008, the economic recession slowed construction and sales but Avignon at Vinings is likely to become one of the most stately and desired communities on Paces Ferry Road for many years to come. John Wieland recently bought this community and began new construction, so the name will become Paces View, though Avignon at Vinings may occasionally be referenced as well.

Bakers Farm
Perhaps the most picturesque neighborhood in Vinings, driving through Bakers Farm always feels a little like spring time. Wide winding streets are lined with century old oak trees, weeping willows and perfectly manicured lawns.
"New England Traditional" best describes the majority of the homes in Bakers Farm, where most were built between the mid 1980s and 1990s, though many have been continually updated by residents.
Comfortably spaced lots, most slightly less than an acre, are a hallmark of this community south of Woodland Brooke. Though lot size, square footage and amenities vary somewhat, the average property value is close to $1.5 million. With only about 50 homes all together, it’s for good reason that Bakers Farm is one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Vinings.
Brandy Station
After crossing the Chattahoochee River on Paces Ferry Road, make a left on Woodland Brook and then a quick right, which will bring you into Brandy Station, a community of approximately 75 homes comfortably spread among the trees of 4 neighborhood streets.
The best way to describe Brandy Station is “classic Vinings.” A tasteful mix of traditional, brick and cape cod homes built in the late 70s have been well cared for and hold their value well in a conveniently located area. Lovett School is less than a mile away, as are the very popular Canoe restaurant and other local attractions.
Some home values reach close to $2 million but most are less than $1million, making Brandy Station one of Vinings’ more popular neighborhoods for home buyers to purchase.

Located in Historic Vinings and within walking distance of all things Vinings, is Carter Grove, a tightly knit neighborhood of only 20 traditional style brick homes. All were built within a few years of 2000 and values hover close to $1.5 million depending on home size.
Though most lots are less than a quarter acre, square footage ranges from approximately 3,200 on the smaller side to more than 7,000 for the largest home.

Cochise
Over 150 properties combine to make Cochise the largest subdivision in Vinings. Home values are as varied as the locations and this area east of Paces Ferry Road has the widest variety of homes of any neighborhood in Vinings. Current values range from around 400K to nearly $4 million.
River front homes on the south side of Cochise Drive line the Chattahoochee River and offer a style of peaceful living unlike any other place in Atlanta. Many of these homes were raised and renovated after the floods of 2009 and have begun to reclaim their position as some of the most valuable real estate in Vinings.
Skyline views of Atlanta are available for a fortunate few who own homes above the flood plain and face south toward the city lights. Most of the other properties in Cochise are actually above the flood plain as well, but are quietly tucked away on streets like Teton and Circle Oaks.
Many residents enjoy membership at the Cochise Riverview Club, a much sought after swim, tennis and meeting facility open to members and their guests.
Courtyards of Vinings
One of Vinings’ most affordable neighborhoods is Courtyards of Vinings. This community of approximately 70 homes almost appears to be a townhome development because of close proximity and brick construction but are, in fact, single family homes.
Built between 1989 and 1990, most properties start in the $400 to 500s. Courtyards of Vinings is located just a short drive down New Paces Ferry Road from Historic Vinings and Vinings Jubilee.
With its own swimming pool and tennis court, this tight knit community often appeals to home owners seeking low maintenance living and convenient location, with plenty of interior space. Homes range from about 2,500 to 4,500 square feet, which is a great value for the price of a single family home in Vinings.

Drummond Point
Drummond Point is a small cul-de-sac community of 13 residences located on the western edge of Vinings near Log Cabin Drive. Construction on these beautiful brick and frame style homes began in the late 1990s and continued until the last home was finished in 2007.
With a few exceptions, most of these homes have approximately 4,500 to 5,500 square feet, with basements and are each situated on slightly more than a quarter acre of land.
Though directly across from Brook Grove Vinings, homes in Drummond Point are valued slightly higher due to size and upgrades. Depending on the specific home, prices range from the $500s to the 700s. This is a great community for those who prefer a more traditional style neighborhood but still want to be in Vinings.
Farmington
Farmington is a classic Vinings neighborhood south of Woodland Brooke and has a great range of homes with respect to price, style and location. Whether you’re looking for a 1960s brick ranch to renovate or prefer a newer construction home on the river, Farmington has it all.
Though one of the most popular areas in the heart of Vinings with just over 60 homes, most of the properties along the Chattahoochee River are located in the flood plain. Some are raised high on supports, some are built near the water’s edge and a number of homes are out of the flood plain altogether, so it’s really a personal preference for each home owner.
Average lot size is close to half an acre so residents have plenty of privacy and most home values are well under $1 million, though prices do reach higher on some of the larger homes. Both new and old, many Vinings residents love to call Farmington their home.
Highgrove
At the top of Paces Mill and directly across from the historic Pace House is a small community of 12 Cape Cod and Traditional style homes known as Highgrove.
Lot sizes are quite small due to their prime location but home sizes are quite generous with most having at least 4 to 5 bedrooms and very nice finishes throughout. Construction began in 1993 so properties are still in great condition and the home owners association does a wonderful job of maintaining this intimate community.
Property values are near the $800s and Highgrove is ideal for home owners looking for a move in ready home with all the benefits of a great Historic Vinings location.

Orchard
Three neighborhoods named Orchard Lake, Orchard Run and Orchard Ridge each combine for a total of about 50 homes located next to Vinings Heights on the west side of Woodland Brooke.
Orchard Lake became the original member of this trio when construction began in the early 1970s. Orchard Run was added in the 1990s and finally Orchard Ridge rounded out the Orchard neighborhoods with 5 new custom homes on Knob Hill in the 2000s.

Some of Vinings most beautiful homes overlook Paces Lake to the west of Randall Farm Road. As with most Vinings neighborhoods there is a balanced mix of old and new homes, but several of Paces Lake’s most prestigious properties have been built within the last 10 years.
The little private lake in the middle of this community is reserved for only the 40 or so owners who call it home. Large wooded lots, long driveways and plenty of privacy are hallmarks of this sought after community.
While a few original homes are occasionally available as low as the $400s, Paces Lake properties can easily sell for well over $2 million and higher.

Stillhouse Road
Stillhouse Road is one of the few places in Atlanta where you have to drive only a few short feet before it feels like you are on your way to a mountain lodge somewhere in North Georgia. Only about a dozen properties border Stillhouse and maybe half of those have homes on them. Most of the land is heavily wooded and has been held by current owners for many years. There is even a quiet little creak that runs through a few of the lots. The acreage varies with each property and some can even be assembled. So if you are looking for the privacy of a completely wooded lot but still want to be in a prime location, then Stillhouse Road is your best option. This is some of the most valuable real estate in Vinings.
Valley Creek
Twelve of Vinings’ newest and most elegant homes are tucked away on a quiet side street named Valley Creek, located between Orchard Knob and Landsdowne. Styles vary a bit but most homes are brick and stone construction with custom interiors and high end appliances. A few have great outdoor deck space overlooking partially wooded half acre lots. Property values average from $1 million to $2 million. The large floor plans make Valley Creek an excellent option for those who prefer newer construction homes in a traditional Vinings neighborhood.
Vinings Forest
Located just north of Paces Lake is one of the more affordable and established neighborhoods in Vinings known as Vinings Forest.

Vinings Heights

Property values, construction dates and home styles vary from street to street, so you are almost sure to find a home or lot that fits your needs.
Located on the far western edge of Vinings, one benefit of this community is that there is only one way in and one way out, so there is rarely any through traffic. Vinings Heights has everything from a 1960s brick ranch home to a 7,000 square foot stone manor - and everything in between. Pick your price and find it in Vinings Heights.
