Places To Love: GLENRIDGE CREEK

Location, location, location!  That’s still the name of the real estate game and with the Glenridge Creek Townhouses, not only are you getting a great location but you will love the home features.  Located inside the Perimeter off Peachtree Dunwoody and Johnson Ferry,the Glenridge Creek real estate community is conveniently near GA 400 and I-285.  Although this is inside the Perimeter and you will enjoy in-town living in the Metro Atlanta area, you are spared the high cost of city of Atlanta taxes as this community is within the Sandy Springs’ city limits.
