Embry Hills is a close-knit community
Built by brothers, Embry Hills is a master-planned community teeming with midcentury homes just 15 miles from Atlanta. Established in 1956, the original homes were built on 600 acres of farmland purchased by the Embry family. Its prime location, at the intersection of Interstate 85 and Interstate 285, allows residents to easily connect to Atlanta's amenities. “It's a really close-knit community. They have a lot of informal gatherings at Embry Hills Club. It’s a private club, but most families join,” says Jody Steinberg, a Realtor with Bolst, who lives in the area. “There’s a full range of ages and family types. There are original homeowners from 60 years ago and newer ones. You even have two-generation families, with kids who grew up there and then bought into the neighborhood. The neighbors really look out for each other. I have a client who ended up there who says she almost likes the neighborhood more than her house.”
Embry Hills is a 1960s time capsule
Homebuyers will find a wealth of 1960s ranch houses, split-levels and condos, as well as some contemporary homes with two-car garages. "Embry Hills has bigger homes than the downtown Atlanta area,” says Stephen Jones, a real estate investor with Light Box Homes and an area resident. “A lot also come with basements built in the 1960s, which are very durable."
Condos typically range from $200,000 to $300,000, while single-family homes sell between $450,000 to $700,000. “Priced-right houses are on the market for a week or less,” Steinburg says. “It’s a beautiful neighborhood and extremely walkable.”
The dominant architectural builds of Embry Hills are Ranches or Split-levels.
Split-level homes with car ports are apart of the original real estate options of Embry Hills.

Embry Hills residents enjoy nearby Atlanta attractions
Embry Hills' proximity to Atlanta is a major draw to the area. With a 15-mile drive, residents can catch a Falcons football game at Mercedes-Benz Stadium or see the Hawks basketball team play at State Farm Arena. Centennial Olympic Park offers walking paths, a splash pad to cool off in the warmer months and historical significance, as it hosted the 1996 Olympic Games.
Embry Village is a hub for shopping and dining
At Embry Village, on Chamblee Tucker Road, residents can stock up on groceries at Kroger, work out at Planet Fitness, or grab coffee at Starbucks. The shopping center also hosts popular burger joints like Three Dollar Café and Wayback Burgers. “It’s got all the basic services anyone would need,” Steinburg says.
For greater shopping options, Lenox Square mall is only 10 miles southwest, offering more than 250 luxury stores, including Bloomingdale's and Louis Vuitton.

Residents hop on Interstate 85 to get to downtown Atlanta
Embry Hills residents largely depend on their cars to get around the community. "Sidewalks are present but not the most consistent to make a grocery run walkable,” Jones says. Downtown Atlanta can be reached with a 15-mile drive south on Interstate 85. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is a 22-mile trip and Emory University Hospital is 10 miles away along that same stretch of highway. The Doraville MARTA station, about 4 miles northwest, also connects residents to the Atlanta metro area.
