Gresham Park is an established suburb east of Atlanta, known for its modest homes and convenient location. Its housing values are generally below the average values of the greater Atlanta Metro Area. Locals enjoy quick access to major interstates, well-maintained DeKalb County parks and trendy communities like East Atlanta.
The homes in Gresham Park are diverse. “They have a really good mix of architectural styles,” says Realtor Juli St George of Keller Williams Realty Intown Atlanta. She’s sold homes across the city for over a decade. “They have brick ranch-styles and new builds, and they still have affordability there.” Many of the neighborhood’s houses have been around for a while. Most ranch-style homes were built in the 1950s and ‘60s, and St. George says many have been renovated over the years. Some houses may still need a few repairs. Prices range from the low-$100,000s for an established ranch-style in need of some repairs, to the low-$600,000s, often for some of the neighborhood’s new builds. “It’s great for people looking to pick up investment properties and first-time homebuyers,” St. George says.
A couple of small shopping centers surround Gresham Park. They have grocery stores, locally owned restaurants and gas stations. Walmart is just north, and Food Town Market is in Bouldercrest Plaza just south of the neighborhood. There are a couple of restaurants folks enjoy, like RC’s Kitchen and GQ’s Bar-B-Que, but St. George locals often head to East Atlanta for dinner or a drink. Popular East Atlanta spots include:
Gresham Park is a relatively green area with plenty of space for you to enjoy the outdoors. “There are little micro parks sprinkled throughout the neighborhood that people can go to,” St. George says. The Gresham Park Recreation Center brings residents together for casual recreation and community events. It has a gym and meeting room inside, and a basketball court, pool, multi-use fields and a nature trail outside. You can also access the South River Trail from the recreation center, which is popular with cyclists. Many residents also head to Glen Emerald Park off Bouldercrest Road. The woodsy park has tennis courts, a playground and a rock garden.
Gresham Park is zoned for the DeKalb County School District. The district offers school choice, expanding educational options to include its Montessori, International Baccalaureate and dual-language immersion schools and programs. Students can apply to up to five schools, and selections are made through a lottery. Applications typically open in October for the following school year. Many students attend Ronald E. McNair High School, the home boundary school for Gresham Park.
Folks typically depend on their cars to get around, but MARTA buses stop frequently along Bouldercrest Road and Gresham Road. The neighborhood is close to busy Atlanta communities, like Grant Park and East Atlanta, and is about 9 miles from Downtown Atlanta. Interstate 20 runs along the community’s northern border toward downtown. Interstate 285 is accessible just south of the community. Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is 10 miles away.
