Brookhaven

Originally developed around 1910 as Atlanta's first country club neighborhood, Brookhaven, located on the northern edge of Buckhead is an enclave of large, elegant Tudor, Colonial, Georgian and English cottage homes. Lush landscapes, beautiful arrays of gardens, and meandering streets are indicative of Brookhaven. In the 1980s, this area was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. Solomon Goodwin, the area's first white settler, homesteaded this area in the early 1830s. The Goodwin home and a small graveyard at 3931 Peachtree Road were once a landmark for Federal troops closing in on Atlanta during the Civil War. The home is the oldest extant house in DeKalb County. Home to the elite Capital City Country Club on East Brookhaven and Club Drive; the area surrounding the golf course is a Mecca for walkers, joggers and bike riders. Minutes away from Buckhead's nightlife, the theatre, divine eateries and the shopping experiences of Perimeter Mall, Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza. This neighborhood is a haven for the established and upwardly mobile professional. Easy accessibility to all major expressways and Brookhaven and Lenox Marta stations.
