Quiet Atlanta neighborhood with rolling hills and towering pines
True to its name, Pine Hills is an established residential neighborhood with rolling hills and towering pine trees. Although Pine Hills is just minutes from Downtown Atlanta and shopping meccas like Lenox Square and Phipps Plaza, the area is quiet and peaceful. “There’s a lot of cool wildlife here,” says Ken Kraften, local and Realtor with RE/MAX Metro Atlanta. “I ride my bike in that area in the morning, and the other day, I saw a huge buck.”
