A historic district minutes from Lakebottom Park and Uptown amenities

As reflected in its name, Wynns Hill has some of MidTown's most well-preserved 20th-century homes, all overlooking the Chattahoochee Valley. Also referred to as "Overlook," the community's winding roads are peaceful yet full of life. "You get the sense that this is a place where people know their neighbors by name, where they stop to say hello on evening walks," says Realtor Kat Cannella with Coldwell Banker and Kennon, Parker, Duncan & Davis. Cannella has lived in the area for over 30 years and has five years of real estate experience. "There are always festivities during holidays; you'll always see kids walking around trick-or-treating. It seems like a place where people are just enjoying living life and raising their families." Wynns Hill’s peaceful homes are over a mile in either direction from MidTown's Lakebottom Park and the dining, retail and entertainment of Uptown.

A park-like neighborhood part of MidTown's historic districts

The neighborhood was largely developed in the 1920s, when architects created a park-like community with curved streets lined with oak, pine and magnolia trees. Many homes feature in-ground pools and entertainment spaces in their backyards. "Homes here were typically built a little larger and are on slightly bigger lots than other areas," Cannella says. "Because of this, homes are priced slightly higher than surrounding neighborhoods, but it's still an economically diverse area." Buyers will find stately Neoclassical Revival homes with double balconies, classic Colonial Revival homes and whimsical brick Tudor Revival homes. There are also postwar Cape Cods and midcentury bungalows available. Homes here typically cost between $250,000 and $400,000, but some of the neighborhood's larger Neoclassical-style homes and midcentury bungalows cost between $500,000 and $600,000.

There's always something going on at Lakebottom," says Realtor Alison Cox with Keller Williams River Cities. Cox has been a real estate agent for nearly 20 years.
