"Family Fun Nearby"

Atlanta, Georgia, is a beautiful city that is known for its amazing culture including theater, fine arts, and music. The city of Atlanta has many great features and is in a marvelous location that provides residents with tons of trees, lush hills, and great weather. For people looking for a town to live in that truly provides them with everything they need to thrive, look no farther than Atlanta.

When picking a neighborhood to live in, Atlanta provides many different possibilities. Chalet Woods is a great location that is just 6.3 miles from downtown. It offers a great family-oriented environment with beautiful tree lined streets. This neighborhood has a large selection of homes and is near transit so that it is an easy commute to downtown.

This community is next to Isabel Gates Webster Park, Lionel Hampton Park, and is within driving distance to Lake Palmyra which offers great fishing. This lake is a great place to catch some catfish or walleye. These are great additions to the neighborhood and will give the whole family a plethora of activities. There are also great schools located near Chalet Woods, including the Peyton Forest Elementary School.
Pros
  • beautiful green spaces
  • nice homes
Cons
  • not many shopping options
  • some not so nice parts

"Tucked away, like a well-kept secret"

Chalet Woods is a small neighborhood located in southwest Atlanta. I am assuming that it gets its name from the fact that it is surrounded by so many beautiful large evergreen trees that accent the area. This neighborhood is quietly tucked away like a well-kept secret. It has a really wonderful location. Close-by is Interstate 20, which means that you are minutes away from city shopping and dining. It is only a little over 5 miles away from Downtown, Atlanta, so that you can easily access other local popular attractions.

Most of the homes in Chalet Woods are lovely single home brick houses. They are adorned with large yards and appear to have been well-maintained throughout the years (my speculations as an outsider looking in). I would say that this really seems like it would be a nice place for middle class families that want to live close to the city but still get that country feeling.

Nearby Schools include Peyton Forest Elementary, Douglass High, Beecher Hills Elementary and Worthy’s Christian Academy. There are also several parks nearby with playgrounds. The only cons that I can think of is that there are some surrounding areas that aren’t as nice as Chalet Woods, and there are not many shopping options (or nightlife for that matter).
Pros
