Snellville, Ga.—FrontDoor Communities and Lynwood Development Group have partnered on a 45-acre master planned community project in the Atlanta suburb of Snellville, Ga., that would add an assortment of single family and multifamily homes to that market.
Located next to the Eastside Medical Center in Snellville, which the U.S. Census Bureau estimated to have a population of 19,245 in 2013, the development will be called Eastside Village and will be comprised of 60 high-end homes, 68 brownstones and 233 garden-style units, with the hopes of attracting the areas single professionals, hospital employees and active seniors.
The apartment community component will offer a mix of one- to three-bedroom floor plan options with rents ranging between $950 and $1,400, respectively. Amenities will include a pool, clubhouse and cabana, and the architectural details will feature a mix of brick, stone, stacked stone and wood.
Single family homes will range in size from 2,100 to 3,500 square feet with prices between the mid $300,000s and $500,000s. The 68 brownstone townhomes will include two-car garages and will be priced starting in the $200,000.
“We are excited about the prospect of building a master planned neighborhood in a Snellville community desperately in need of new housing options,” says FrontDoor Communities’ CEO, Terry Russell. “We’re also proud that Eastside Village will offer great walkability with more than 11 acres of park and open space.”
Lynwood Development Group already has several other residential communities in the Gwinnett County area. The development of Eastside Village will mark the company’s 10th in the county.
“We are pleased to partner with FrontDoor Communities to bring much-needed single family homes and high-end apartments to Snellville,” says Woody Snell, president of Lynwood Development Group. “What we appreciate most is FrontDoor’s commitment to building neighborhoods that bring quality designs to a community that embraces an active lifestyle.”
