Suburban living near Piedmont Hospital
Collier Hills is an established neighborhood in Atlanta’s Buckhead district, offering plenty of green space and quick access to both the heart of the city and Piedmont Hospital. It’s also home to the Atlanta BeltLine, a 22-mile pedestrian loop around the city. “The BeltLine is one of the biggest things in Atlanta. Atlanta is a city of trees. People want to walk,” says Joshua Bazzetta, a realtor with Christopher Scott Realty Group, who has been selling homes in the area for nearly 20 years. “Midtown is a very happening spot in Atlanta. There are lots of bars and restaurants, and Georgia Tech is there. You can get to Midtown on the BeltLine from this neighborhood without driving.” Collier Hills is served by the Collier Hills Civic Association, which helps organize local events and clean-up initiatives. The neighborhood is walkable to two parks, with park organizations actively planning events and maintaining the area.
The beltline through Tanyard Creek Park is a great biking trail.

Renovated cottages and ranches in Collier Hills
Most entrances to the neighborhood feature brick pillars, often decorated for the holidays, leading into the forested, narrow streetscapes. Pocket parks dot the area, and neighbors have easy access to the Atlanta BeltLine just steps from their yards. The lots here are spacious and hilly, with long paved driveways that front well-maintained, traditional homes. Many houses in Collier Hills are cottages and ranch-style houses from the 1940s and 1950s set on quarter-acre lots. Mature trees provide shade along the quiet, sidewalk-free streets. “Most of the homes have been bought and renovated,” says Kenna Daws, an Atlanta native and realtor with Keller Williams Realty Atlanta North. “There’s a lot of young couples without children starting their careers, with homes large enough to accommodate growing families." Properties in Collier Hills rarely hit the market, and when they do, buyers typically pay between $700,000 and well over $1 million. “Collier Hills is a popular area,” Daws says. “People stay in the area for a while. You don’t see prices declining, and you don’t see houses on the market.”

Collier Hills is served by the Atlanta Public Schools district. “We have private schools in the area, but there are also good public schools,” says Daws. Rivers Elementary and Sutton Middle School both earn B-plus grades on Niche. A-rated North Atlanta High offers an International Baccalaureate program and several after-school clubs, including the Academic Decathlon, Science National Honor Society, and a Mock Trial Club. The high school moved into a converted IBM office complex in 2013. The state-of-the-art space, which cost nearly $150 million to complete, became the most expensive public school in Georgia history. Buckhead is also home to several prestigious private schools, including The Westminster Schools and Pace Academy. Both receive A-plus grades from Niche and serve kindergarten through 12th grade.
