Embry Hills, GA

Every Saturday through September you can find a FARMERS MARKET at Northeast Baptist Church on Chamblee Tucker Road. Tim stopped by Saturday and bought some fresh corn for our labor day picnic.

Tim especially enjoyed the stall with organically grown vegetables. Heirloom tomatoes, arugula, radishes and more tempted the chef to sir up some new saues and recipes.

The ladies at left were selling organic honey.

Another stall had artisan goat cheeses for sale.

And if you were hungry or thirsty you could feast on fresh baked pastries and bread or some fresh brewed orcanically grown coffee from Costa Rica. This is a fun event and a great way to kick off a Saturday. Open through the end of September.

LOCATION: Chamblee Tucker Road outside the perimeter. Embry Hills neighborhood ear the intersection of Chamblee Tucker Road and Evansdale Road.

Hosted in the parking lot of Northeast Baptist Church.

One of my listing clients just spent a couple hundred dollars repainting kitchen cabinets, removing wallpaper from the kitchen walls and repainting with a neutral color and a few minor cosmetic touch ups.

I could not believe the difference in the before and after photos for this home. Take a look for yourself.

I have a handy man who does this type work at rock bottom prices. In my opinion, the home looks 20 years younger after the expenditure of just a couple hundred dollars.

A do it yourself type home owner could make this change for less than one hundred bucks.

Now I just need to get it sold!

Here is the front of the home:

Henderson Walk Subdivision in Embry Hills Neighborhood of Atlanta GA One of First DeKalb County Cluster Developments

Henderson Walk subdivision was a "new concept" in 1982 when large homes on small low maintenance lots were introduced to the metro Atlanta housing market. Now known as cluster home communities, Henderson Walk met some resistance from the community who had preconceived notions about small lots in new home developments. Once the housing product was finished, consumers began to realize the small low maintenance lot did not affect the value of the home. Buyers were actually looking for a larger, full size home but wanted to give up the headaches of maintaining large lawns and landscaping.

Henderson Walk homes are four sides low maintenance brick which added to both the architectural look of the community and the long lasting integrity of the housing product. Most were 3 and 4 bedroom homes and all had 2 car garages. Each home was built on a self contained lot. There are no shared driveways or zero lot line buildings.\

Homes are currently priced in the upper 200.000s.

The Henderson walk community is located in the Embry Hills neighborhood of Atlanta Georgia (in unincorporated DeKalb County). The neighborhood lies near the I-285/I-85 intersection and is about a mile outside the Perimeter. Commute downtown is easy as residents get on I-85 inside the perimeter at the Chamblee Tucker exit.

Embry Hills has all the shopping, restaurants and shopping needed to make life easy and convenient for Henderson Walk residents. Kroger, The Loop restaurant, Angies Petals Florist, Moes, Bank of America, gas stations, S&S cafeteria and others are just steps away. There are also nearby houses of worship including Holy Cross Catholic and Embry Hills United Methodist Church.
