Located 30 miles from downtown Atlanta, Fayette County’s master-planned Peachtree City is America’s largest golf cart community. It has more than 100 miles of scenic multiuse trails, allowing residents to get anywhere in the city by golf cart, bike or on foot. Established in 1959, Peachtree City is home to 40,000 residents. It was designed so each of its five “villages” has shopping centers, parks and elementary schools. Retirees appreciate the relaxed lifestyle that Peachtree City offers, while families are drawn to its top-rated school district. “Peachtree City is a very higher-end area. It’s good for raising families because there’s low crime,” says Tim Stout, a Realtor with My Brokerage, who’s been selling homes in the area for 15 years. “It’s laid-back, but they’ve got a lot going on. There’s a lot of good shopping and restaurants. There are always events and festivals going on. There are a lot of golf courses, too. A lot of people there play golf.”
Peachtree City is a high-end residential neighborhood boasting country clubs.
Residents in Peachtree City tend to get around the neighborhood via golf cart on paved pathways.

Many neighborhoods are peppered with parks and lakes and have direct access to golf cart paths.

The median sale price over the past 12 months is $559,000, a 5% increase from the previous year and higher than the Atlanta median of $412,000.

Golf carts are a main way to get around the community
Golf carts are the preferred mode of transportation in Peachtree City and residents use them to get everywhere from shopping centers to schools. They aren’t allowed on some major roads, but cart-friendly bridges, tunnels and authorized crossings provide a workaround.
Downtown Atlanta is 30 miles north via Highway 74 and I-85. “It’s really convenient,” Stout says. The commute can take anywhere from 40 minutes to an hour depending on traffic. The Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport is 20 miles away. “A lot of people who work for Delta live there because it’s so close to the airport,” Stout says. “There are a lot of pilots in Peachtree City.”

About 30 miles southeast of Atlanta, Whitewater is in a rural part of south Fayette County. The community allows homebuyers to buy properties on multiple acres but has easy access to amenities in neighboring areas such as Peachtree City. “I call it refined rural living,” says DeSales DeGolian, a broker with DeGolian Realty and Peachtree City resident. “It’s a rural area, but it's more high-end, and you can find very nice homes here."
The draw with Whitewater is the chance to find a property on multiple acres. “You can get more land out here, most homes come on at least 5 acres, and you can get even more than that,” DeGolian says. Buyers can find contemporary brick Craftsman and colonials in small communities on large lots or mini-mansions on nearby golf courses. Prices range from $339,000 to $1.9 million based on condition and property size. “Inventory is still tight. When properly priced listings come on the market, they sell fast and get multiple offers,” DeGolian says. Whitewater's CAP Index Crime Score is a 1-out-10, less than the national average of 4-out-10.
Whitewater is part of Fayette County Schools, which ranks as an A on Niche and serves more than 20,000 students. The community has multiple school paths, but one is Sara Harp Minter Elementary, advance to Whitewater Middle and then earn their diploma from Whitewater High School, all of which earn an A from Niche. The high school is the newest in the district, opening in 2003 and offers the Work Based Learning program, which allows students to leave school to work an internship or a job where they can earn elective credit towards graduation and potentially make money.
Whitewater is almost midway between Interstates 75 and 85 in Fayette County. The interstates are two of the three cross-country interstates that head through Atlanta, and commuters can use either to get 30 miles into the city. The area has access to Georgia Highways 54 and 74, which connect the area with surrounding counties like Fulton. Whitewater is less than 25 miles from the Atlanta Hartsfield Jackson Airport, one of the world's busiest passenger terminals.
A primarily residential area, locals will have to head into neighboring Peachtree City or Senoia for their needs. The Publix at Wilshire Pavilion provides a place to pick up weekly essentials, while the shopping center offers multiple storefronts and a Chick-fil-A. Residents can head further east into Peachtree City for brunch at Mimi’s Good Food, open daily from 6 a.m. to 3 p.m., or try Elliott’s, known for its Southern fare and outdoor patio.
Less than 10 miles away, Lake Horton Park is a massive green space, and while there is no swimming, locals can fish, take approved boats on the lake or explore the 2.8 miles worth of paved walking trails. Peachtree City offers numerous green spaces and recreation activities, including Kedron Fieldhouse and Aquatic Center. The indoor facility provides two full-size basketball courts lined for hoops, volleyball and pickleball, while outdoors, there are two pools and a small park with a popular large playground. Families and serious golfers can join the Whitewater Creek Country Club, which is part of The Clubs at Peachtree City and Newnan and allows one membership to access five clubs across the cities. All five clubs feature an 18-hole golf course, clubhouse, pools and restaurants.
Locals can head into Senoia every Saturday to shop for local produce, artisans, and much more at the Senoia Farmers Market. Residents can also head to one of the many events held in Peachtree City, like monthly Food Truck Thursdays, the first Thursday of each month or the Sunset Sounds concert series held throughout the summer, with both events taking place at Drake Field.
