West Manor is an established residential community in Westside Atlanta

West Manor is a residential community in Westside Atlanta where not much has changed since its development in the 1950s and ‘60s. “It’s a quiet, older neighborhood,” says Paul Campbell, an associate broker with TIA Investments who’s sold homes in the area for around 34 years, noting that many of the residents have lived here for a long time. “It’s very stable.” The community is anchored by Mount Vernon Baptist Church, which has stood on the corner of Lyndhurst and Benjamin E. Mays Drives since 1963, and West Manor Park, whose community center was recently renovated. Interstate 285 borders the community, and downtown Atlanta is about 9 miles away.

A pine-filled neighborhood of split-level and ranch-style homes

West Manor’s ranch-style and split-level homes are on spacious lots ranging between a quarter-acre and over a half-acre, allowing plenty of open space for manicured lawns and the mature pine trees that shade the community. “It's not a party place — it’s a peaceful place to live,” Campbell says. The midcentury houses feature brick exteriors and paved driveways leading to attached garages and carports. Prices typically range from around $150,000 to $325,000, depending on condition.
