Chalet Woods is a small Atlanta neighborhood west of downtown Atlanta.
Chalet Woods has natural surroundings and secluded streets in Atlanta
Chalet Woods’s green surroundings may be surprising given the neighborhood is in one of the South’s largest cities. Only about a dozen streets and a few cul-de-sacs make up Chalet Woods, a pocket of homes surrounded by trees. A nature preserve directly to the south adds to the area’s natural feel, but, at the same time, the Atlanta neighborhood us less than a mile from a commercial corridor and Interstate 20.
Midcentury homes and modern additions
Chalet Woods’ midcentury homes often have ranch-style designs and fenced-in backyards on the outside and full basements and hardwood floors on the inside. Newer homes outfitted with farmhouse-inspired and contemporary architectural features have also been built in the neighborhood. Many properties that hit the market need significant renovations, while move-in-ready houses have recently sold from the mid-$200,000s to the mid-$500,000s.
New Traditional architecture shows up in some new homes.

Area residents exercise in the Lionel Hampton-Beecher Nature Preserve.
Trails, preserves and a soccer pitch just outside the neighborhood
Realtor LaTonya Dasher of Latlin Bevsho Realty Inc. says the neighborhood's proximity to two popular parks is one of the biggest draws. Both parks are just a stone's throw away, she says. "Literally, you can toss a rock, and you don't have to put any force behind it," she says. To the south, Lionel Hampton-Beecher Hills Nature Preserve conserves more than 100 acres of mature hardwood forest, including old-growth trees. A mile-long trail passes under the preserve’s magnolias and sugar maples. North of Chalet Woods, kids play soccer on a pitch installed by the U.S. Soccer Foundation at Isabel Gates Webster Park. Less than 3 miles away, trails at Cascade Springs Nature Preserve take hikers past a cascading waterfall, alongside Utoy Creek and Civil War-era earthworks.
MARTA operates bus routes and rail routes across Atlanta.
I-20 and nearby MARTA station help residents get downtown
Commuters heading to Downtown Atlanta have two transportation options within a mile of the neighborhood. They can hop on Interstate 20 to make the 7-mile drive, which usually takes 20 minutes or less, or board a MARTA train at the Hamilton E. Holmes station and ride downtown in less than 10 minutes. Chalet Woods is also close to Interstate 285, a beltway around Atlanta that you can use to make the 14-mile drive to Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport.
Southern comfort food and retail found along MLK Jr. Drive

A1 Soul Food, a quick-order eatery with comfort food for breakfast, lunch and dinner

The area also has chain retailers, including CVS and Dollar Tree. Less than 3 miles south, The Beautiful Restaurant has served Southern dishes for decades. "It has [had] that same style of food since 1979," Dasher says. "They still use regular old-school sugar, and even in their vegetables and the way they make their mac and cheese, it's really original."
The Beautiful Restaurant, located in southwest Atlanta, been a local favorite since 1979.
