Dunwoody/Atlanta, GA

About This Community

Dunwoody, Georgia is a perfect blend of family-friendly neighborhoods, a thriving economy, a moderate climate, recreational and cultural experiences galore, and a robust and growing Orthodox community. It’s ideal for those seeking to improve their quality of life while remaining close to the big city. Only 16.5 miles from downtown Atlanta (Money Magazine’s #1 Best Place to Live), and 26 miles from the world’s “most efficient airport,” this edge city has 200 acres of public green space, tree-lined, pedestrian-friendly sidewalks, easy access to mass transit, interstate highways, world-class health care and universities and any shopping destination imaginable.

The median price of a home (typically 4/ 5 bedrooms, 2½ bath and spacious backyard) is $600,000. Our expansive eruv includes apartment rentals and Brook Run, a 110-acre park. The average rent for a 4-bedroom home is $2700.

Jewish amenities in Dunwoody include a 52-acre, world-class JCC, a kosher Kroger and Costco, grocery store, 2 meat restaurants, and a butcher. Dunwoody is 13 miles from Toco Hills providing easy access to other kosher establishments, Torah Day School, Yeshiva Ohr Yisrael, and Temima HS. We are 7.5 miles from the Atlanta Jewish Academy.

Best of all, Dunwoody is home to Congregation Ariel, an established, OU-affiliated Orthodox community, and the Atlanta Scholars Kollel Dome. Our campus includes a mikvah, keillim mikvah, educational wing, and playground. There are daily minyanim, shiurim, women’s classes, and a thriving youth program. We serve the Ashkenaz and Sephardic community and are committed to kiruv.

As a native Atlantan, I know the Atlanta real estate market inside and out. I love helping buyers find their dream homes in the exact locations where they want to live. Many of the houses I sell are "off market" which means I know about them before they are listed online. I always appreciate the opportunity to be of service and look forward to helping you when the time is right. Call anytime to discuss or if you have questions.
