Woods of Henderson Subdivision Near Northlake Mall Rarely Has A Home For Sale - 03/29/10 05:24 PM
Woods of Henderson Subdivision Near Northlake Mall Rarely Has A Home For Sale
Turnover is low in Woods of Henderson subdivision in Northlake Georgia.  This subdivision near Northlake Mall in DeKalb County Georgia is convenient to Emory and CDC and residents tend to stay put.  This makes Woods of Henderson a highly desirable location for families looking for stability in a neighborhood.
Woods of Henderson was developed in the early 1980s by my father, Bill Bryant, and my uncle, Don Bryant.  The land was purchased from Mercer University and the roads and utilities were installed by their development company, Key Development.  … (0 comments)

Better Than New Homes Priced UNDER New Construction Prices In Metro Atlanta
