Cumming Homes and Townhomes
Georgia 400, built in the 1970s, helped seal the area’s conversion from rural to increasingly suburban. The area has retained some of its history, however. The Cumming Playhouse , located at 101 School St., is situated within the 1923 Cumming Public School, a structure named to the National Register of Historic Places in 2000. A property of the city of Cumming, it also houses the Historical Society of Forsyth County and the Col. Hiram Parks Bell Center for Southern History and Genealogical Research.
The Cumming Fairgrounds, home of the Cumming Country Fair and Festival, hosts the IPRA World Championship Rodeo, the annual Steam and Gas Expo and a weekly farmers market. Yet, tranquil spots remain. A one-of-a-kind passive park, Poole’s Mill, comprises 10 acres of property that includes a covered bridge. Built in 1901, it spans the shoals of Settendown Creek.

Current Economic Market Creates The Best Features, Finishes and Value For Housing In Forsyth County, GA
October 16th, 2008 Categories: Cumming, Forsyth County, New Construction
This past weekend, I found myself visiting
new home communities throughout South Forsyth County
to see the current inventory and the latest features and upgrades as builders try to reduce their new home inventory.
As I toured these homes, I was struck by the incredible finishes and upgrades that made these
$500,000 properties look and feel like a million dollars.
Communities included Vickery Springs In Cumming Georgia. This neighborhood of Newer Homes are still available for sale. Builders include Osley Builder and Carriage Homes Inc. Below is an example of a Carriage Homes Quality Home. Full of details galore from heavily detailed tray ceilings to built in bookcases.
Visit Homes In Vickery Springs, Cumming GA
Features like heavy crown mouldings on both the main and 2nd level, Master bedrooms with sitting area’s and fireplaces, kitchen’s and keeping rooms that exuded warmth and elegance. Granite counters and intricate full tile backsplash. Stack stone columns surrounding the gas oven. Full bathrooms for every bedroom. Finished basements with home theatres. Outdoor Fireplace. The list goes on and on.
What I found interesting is that each community had wonderful unique qualities, was beautifully maintained and all offered tremendous value for the dollar. While I have always found the Northern Atlanta area to be affordable in regard to housing, the finishes and features now make these houses “fully loaded”, akin to upgrading the Toyota to a Lexus.
If you have the financial means and have entertained the thought of shopping or looking at new home communities, you will be excited to see what’s in store for you.
Don’t take my word for it, go see for yourself.
Visit North Atlanta Real Estate Web Site,
Email or call for more of the latest builder information and their new home develpments that are waiting for you. Be careful when you do go, as you might find yourself buying your new home.
If you would like a list of the other communities I am writing about,
send me an email and I would be pleased to share them with you.

The “Avenues” In Forsyth County Georgia, A Great Community Addition to Cumming!
June 22nd, 2008 Categories: Bon Appetit !, Cumming, Forsyth County
The Avenues at Forsyth, only opened for the past month, has been drawing rave reviews. “It is such a fabulous place for the family to spend the day” says Bradley Weiner, an Alpharetta resident.
As a family with two teenagers, we are able to shop, browse at Barnes & Noble, catch a movie and finish the day with dinner at Ted’s Montana Grill or Ichiban Japanese Steakhouse.
<
Located right off the Ga. 400 at Peachtree Parkway, just north of Alpharetta, the “Avenues” is a mixed use development, boasting retail space, offices and condominiums in an outdoor setting, as well as several restaurants for your dining experience.
The AMC movie theater, which has 12 screens, is in all digital theater, the first for the state of Georgia. Two of the 12 screens are more than three stories high and 50 feet wide.
For information and showtimes, visit www.amctheatres.com.
Go and take the family for a fun day out in Cumming Georgia. It will be on your list of favorite outings around town!

Where Do We Put Our Boats? Drought Conditions On Lake Lanier In North Atlanta
December 30th, 2007 Categories: Cumming, Deborah's Scrapbook, Forsyth County
The drought continues to wreck havoc on Lake Lanier.
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers is recommending people pull their boats out of Lake Lanier before they are left stranded in the mud. Officials say many of the boat ramps and docks might soon be out of the water. Because people are following the recommendation by the Corps of Engineers, it is becoming difficult to find dry storage for your boat. Such low levels of water also mean underwater dangers for boaters. Many of the permanent markers warning of underwater hazards are already “high and dry”.
What Is Our Solution For North Atlantas Rain Drought.
- The key for Lake Lanier’s recovery is rain.
Forecasters say the dry conditions will continue for months.
