Billed as “a serene urban oasis” that’s “a world away in the heart of Buckhead,” a unique pocket neighborhood by one of intown’s most active homebuilders has had to pivot during construction to satiate buyer demand for truly mondo dwellings, sellers tell Urbanize Atlanta.
Tucked off Peachtree Road in Buckhead’s Garden Hills neighborhood, the first phase of the Delmont project by Hedgewood Homes wrapped vertical construction last year—back when the community was expected to include 35 standalone houses and duplexes total.
