North Georgia is a wonderful place we call home. The mild climate is perfect for outdoor enjoyment year round yet we still experience the beautiful changes of the seasons like our northern neighbors. From the hills and mountains in the north to the big city of Atlanta this area has endless opportunities for work and play. Families and retirees alike can live here comfortably and there is a diverse option of homes to choose from.

Atlanta is the home to many large and mid sized companies and has all the cultural amenities one would expect in any large US city.

Suburban cities like Roswell, Sandy Springs, Dunwoody, Alpharetta, Marietta, Kennesaw, and Smyrna, all are close to the big city but “outside the perimeter” (OTP), a term used for areas outside of the 285 loop that encircles Atlanta.

North of these cities are 2 large lakes, Lake Allatoona in the northwest with the cities of Cartersville, Canton, Acworth, and Woodstock all nearby. Lake Sidney Lanier is more northeast with the cities of Cumming, Gainesville, Buford, and Dawsonville nearby. Both lake areas offer lake living as well as boating, camping and hiking opportunities.

Further north you’ll find the peaceful mountain towns of Jasper, Ellijay, and Dahlonega all offering a laid back lifestyle one would expect in a small mountain town but still close enough to the big city as not to feel too isolated.

From elaborate in-town and suburban luxury estate homes, gated golf communities with every amenity, lake homes, mountain homes, modest beginner homes and condos, North Georgia has properties and land for sale that will fit just about every need any budget.

We at Strom Thurman Realty Partners look forward to working with you on your next home purchase or sale.
