In shadow of Atlanta Braves’s stadium, plans emerge for 300 Vinings homes

Boasting minutes-long drive times to Vinings Jubilee, Cumberland Mall, and the entertainment superplex that is SunTrust Park and The Battery, a 19-acre site just over the Chattahoochee River from Atlanta will soon host a variety of nearly 300 residences, developers have announced.

The Ashton Woods project, christened “Reverie,” will rise on Cumberland Parkway, a little less than three miles south of the Bravos’s new digs.

Expect a gated community “tucked away from the bustle with ample green space, a community pool, and fitness area for recreation,” per marketing materials.

Plans call for a somewhat surprising mix of townhomes, single-family dwellings, and for-sale lofts.

The loft floorplans and aesthetics will echo the Manor Homes at the developer’s in-progress Aria community near the new Mercedes Benz Headquarters in Sandy Springs. More than 150 residences have sold there, and the Manor Homes have been among the most popular, officials said.

The project joins another large-scale venture recently unveiled for this pocket of Cobb County: Mill Creek’s Modera Vinings, where denizens of the 269 rentals will enjoy access to their own paddle-boat pond.

Ashton Woods officials said Reverie homes won’t be available for sale until later in 2018, when prices will be announced.

No construction timeline was specified, but given its scope, don’t expect the project to sprout overnight.

Nonetheless, per a statement from Michael Malloy, Ashton Woods Atlanta vice president of sales and marketing, “Reverie has already received an extraordinary amount of positive interest from the Cumberland community.”
