Who's Your Next Neighbor? |
This evening I sat in the courtyard under a full moon and the glow of the lamp posts on the courtyard. The Croquet players had finished playing and gathered in the pavilion, crowned by the warmly lit Coppola, while other Members walked their dogs. It was truly magical. |
|
Many of you have asked me how many homes are available. We currently have ten condominiums available in Austin Walk III and V, and several listings of which three are under contract. We have released two of the five remaining cottages and will start construction early next year. I appreciate all the friendly introductions you make when I am with prospective members and thank you for recommending your friends to Peachtree Hills Place. I have enjoyed getting to know them immensely.
I hope you all have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
