Brookhaven is a vibrant, leafy city just northeast of Atlanta that blends historic charm with modern convenience. Originally developed in the early 1900s around the Capital City Country Club — one of Georgia’s first planned golf course communities — Brookhaven has grown into a highly sought-after residential area with a strong sense of community and easy access to metro amenities.
The real estate market features a wide range of housing options, from elegant historic estates in Historic Brookhaven and classic bungalows to contemporary townhomes and luxury new construction in neighborhoods like Ashford Park, Brookhaven Village, and Lynwood Park. Prices tend to be above the metro Atlanta average, reflecting the area’s desirable location, quality schools, and lifestyle offerings.
Brookhaven offers abundant things to do, including sprawling green spaces like Murphey Candler Park with trails, sports fields, a lake and pool, and community favorites like Blackburn Park and the Peachtree Creek Greenway. Town Brookhaven and Dresden Drive provide shopping, breweries, restaurants and entertainment, and regular community events like farmers markets and seasonal festivals keep the calendar lively.
Brookhaven is ideal for families, professionals and anyone who wants suburban character with big-city connectivity.
