Buckhead pocket neighborhood nears sellout prior to construction finish

Though the hammers of new construction haven’t finished thwacking, a pocket neighborhood that’s been billed as “a serene urban oasis” that’s “a world away in the heart of Buckhead” is approaching sold-out status, according to marketers. 

The final unsold home at the Delmont by Hedgewood project in Garden Hills has recently come to market, with expectations of being finished in winter this year. 

Tucked off Peachtree Road, a few blocks south of Buckhead Village, the first phase of the Delmont project by Hedgewood Homes wrapped vertical construction in 2023—back when the community was expected to include 35 standalone houses and duplexes total. Those plans were later tweaked to 32 residences to allow for larger homes (and bigger price tags) to meet square-footage appetites, sellers previously explained. 

The final available home plan—four bedrooms and three and ½ bathrooms in 3,070 square feet, with an elevator—is asking $1.97 million at 100 Sheridan Drive. (That’s a breakdown of $644 per square foot.) 

Another consideration—but a minor one, at these price points—is the $288 per month HOA fee. 

Beyond location, perks of the last Delmont home include a large loggia and a full floor dedicated to the primary suite, which includes its own private terrace, according to the Compass listing. (Photos aren't yet available.) 

Zillow indicates Delmont sales prices to date have ranged from about $1.5 million to north of $2.7 million. 

Delmont—marketed as “architecturally distinguished”—has replaced an older condo community with village-style homes arranged around a central saltwater pool, plaza, and pool house. Onsite gardeners are also included. 

The site is situated a couple of blocks east of Peachtree Road (about a block from The Phoenix on Peachtree condo tower), overlooking the playing fields of Philip Shutze-designed Atlanta International School and Garden Hills Elementary.

The sales team told Urbanize Atlanta last year the project was proving to be a hit with families wanting to live within walking distance of Atlanta International School, along with downsizing, empty-nester Buckhead residents seeking low-maintenance lifestyles. 

Designed by noted New Urbanism architect Lew Oliver, the project joins other recent Hedgewood builds across Atlanta in places like Lindridge-Martin Manor, Summerhill, and Lake Claire. Perks include personal gardens and large covered porches and rooftop terraces with Buckhead skyline views.
