“Refined rural living” 30 miles south of Atlanta
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 city of Whitewater allows home buyers to purchase homes on multiple acre lots.
Whitewater is a rural community within minutes of busy city life.

Contemporary homes on multiple acres
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 Craftsmans 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.
Contemporary homes in Whitewater tend to have large property lines.
Contemporary homes in Whitewater can have 5 acres of land surrounding the home.

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.
