Parkwood Place Condos

Parkwood Place Condominiums is probably the best deal in Atlanta from a price standpoint.  With studios starting at $89,900 and 3 bedrooms running around $206k, you are unlikely to find perimeter living for less money.

Parkwood Place Condos are located right off Powers Ferry Rd just outside the Perimeter.  This particular stretch of Atlanta has become a highly desirable area to live since access to Buckhead, I-75 and I-285 is immediate and everything from grocery stores, restaurants, banks and even the Chattahoochee River national park.

Parkwood Place Condos were originally an apartment complex built in the mid 90s and the recently converted to condos.  Unlike most conversions, the layouts are more modern and the overall quality of the complex is quite good.  Most older conversions feel like an apartment you had back in college.  Parkwood Place is much more modern in their designs and floor plans.

 

Floor plans consist of studios, 1 bedroom, 2 bedroom and very large 3 bedroom plans.  During the renovation process, the developer upgraded all of the units with tile, nice light fixtures, stainless steel appliances, new cabinets and even granite countertops.  What is nice about Parkwood Place is that what you see is what you get.  You do not have to worry about getting hit up with a bunch of upgrade charges.  Each unit is tricked out from the outset.  This will also help from a resale standpoint since you do not have to worry about other units lacking upgrades pulling down prices.

The clubhouse, pool and gym are very nice and the community is tucked away off the main road and very secluded.  In short, the complex has great curb appeal on top of all everything else.

In closing, you have great looking condos priced below market value, located on the perimeter and the majority of upgrades already included.  Out of all the condos I have seen in Atlanta, this ranks in my mind as the best deal for the money.  If you are looking for a value play, this community should be on your short list.
