Greenbriar has a suburban feel within city limits

Greenbriar is in a transitionary phase amid attempts to revitalize a previously booming neighborhood. “It used to be a very bustling area. It was one of the premier areas in the southwest Atlanta quadrant. And then over time homes begin to age, a generation starts to dwindle, so you have a younger generation moving in,” says Stephanie Paschall, a seasoned real estate agent with Coldwell Banker Realty. Some newcomers have arrived, but Greenbriar remains home to many long-time residents who often pass properties on to the next generation. A suburban atmosphere with proximity to major highways draws homebuyers. “It’s still in the city of Atlanta, and a lot of people are looking for city living,” Paschall says. “They still want to remain community-minded. Some of these individuals are native Atlantans and grew up within the southwest Atlanta area and they want to retain that sense of community. They are interested in helping their communities grow again.”

Many Greenbriar homes have large yards and basements

A little over half of Greenbriar’s housing consists of rental apartments and the rest are mainly single-family ranch-style homes constructed in the 1960s and ‘70s. Heather King, who grew up near Greenbriar and is a Realtor with L.H. King Enterprises, says large yards and basements are common. “So your main living is upstairs and if you want to entertain you have it downstairs, or an in-law suite or for teenagers.” Such homes sell for $210,000 to $330,000 depending on square footage and whether the basement is finished. After a decades-long construction drought, developers began building higher-end residences in southern Greenbriar starting around 2018. These Craftsman-style homes reach up to 4,900 square feet and range from $500,000 to $675,000. There are also newer construction townhouses in the same area priced from $225,000 to $335,000. In Greenbriar, properties sell for an average of $330,300 and stay on the market for 125 days. “Whether it’s new construction, existing homes or resale homes, there’s just a lot of opportunity for affordable housing,” Paschall says. The neighborhood’s CAP Index Crime Score is 7 out of 10, above the national average of 4. After successfully reducing crime in other areas of Atlanta, the CHRIS 180 program expanded in 2023 to areas including Greenbriar.? “Crime is prevalent in Atlanta, period, but I do think that sometimes people have wrong perceptions,” King says. “I feel like you can get a sense of peace and quietness and still have access to the city.”

Greenbriar proudly presents a variety of vibrant communities featuring elegantly designed, newly constructed townhomes that cater to modern living and comfort.

Access to major interstates, airport from Greenbriar

Interstate 285 is accessible via an interchange on Highway 166, which runs westward to I-75 and I-85. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is 5 miles away on I-285 or Camp Creek Parkway. “We have the busiest airport in the country, and it can be a lot to get in and out of, so I think the convenience of not having to drive an hour to get to the airport is another draw,” King says. Metropolitan Atlanta Rapid Transit Authority (MARTA) buses stop along Greenbriar Parkway and Continental Colony Parkway Southwest, with routes to train stations. Southwest Atlanta Hospital is 6 miles north of the neighborhood.

Stone Hogan Park’s basketball court doubles as mural

Sports and art merge at Stone Hogan Park, where a basketball court’s surface serves as the canvas for a mural. Players dribble over an abstract landscape with four hands forming a circle around center court, symbolizing community unity. The park also has swing sets and covered picnic tables surrounded by trees. The Cascade Springs Nature Preserve has walking trails traversing an old-growth forest and creek 5 miles to the north.

Stone Hogan Park boasts a vibrant collection of basketball courts, each uniquely adorned by local artists with stunning murals that bring the space to life.

Big-box shopping and dining at Camp Creek Marketplace

While the once-thriving Greenbriar Mall off Greenbriar Parkway is home to restaurants and stores, many residents drive 4 miles to the Camp Creek Marketplace for Target, Lowe’s Home Improvement, TGI Fridays and Chili’s Bar & Grill. Along with fast food establishments, restaurants in Greenbriar include Area 4 Restaurant, which serves cocktails and American cuisine under high ceilings and colorful lighting. For groceries, Kroger is less than a mile away. “It’s not a live-work-eat type of walking environment. It’s sort of suburbs, but you’re not on the far outskirts,” King says. “You’re still in the city, you’re still considered city of Atlanta, but it’s not like ‘oh let me walk down the street to the grocery store.’”

Nestled in the vibrant heart of Greenbriar, the Camp Creek Shopping Center boasts a spacious and well-stocked Target store, where locals can find various products from groceries to home decor.
