Who says you need a skyscraper budget to live the high life. Nestled in the Emory/Decatur area, it’s your peaceful perch away from the chaos of Atlanta's traffic and city noises. The monthly HOA fee? It’s the MVP—covering all your utilities (except the internet because let’s face it, we all have our favorite provider) and fabulous amenities. No surprise bills, no building maintenance worries. Dive into the sparkling pool, enjoy cookouts and cocktails on the poolside deck, work up a sweat in the gym, greet your guests in the sleek lobby. And, you'll get your very own assigned parking spot—no circling, no guessing. The view from living area and balcony? It’s dreamy, where the tree-top canopy meets sky-kissed sunsets. No cars, no concrete, no awkward window-to-window peeking. Just nature, light, and peaceful easy feelings. Enjoy freedom from the chores of house repairs and lawn care. Easily walk to the beauty of Lullwater Preserve, Lullwater Park Trail and Candler Lake. It’s cozy, it’s classy, it’s kind of perfect.
