Another Happy Couple just purchased a home in Westchester Subdivision in sought after East Cobb.

Here is what they said:

We had the good luck to find Jodi as our agent all the way from Texas.  My husband was being transferred to Atlanta and we really did not know much about the area.  We told Jodi what we were looking for in a house and Jodi went one step further to show us houses in neighborhoods and school districts we would find desirable.  We started off with the MLS searches from Texas and Jodi helped to preview homes and neighborhoods for us that we thought we might be interested in.  In the end, she helped us find a home in a good subdivision and excellent school district.  Jodi worked hard to protect us in our purchase negotiations and represent us while we were in another state.  I don’t know that other agents would have worked as hard as she did for us.  I would not hesitate to use Jodi again or recommend her to anyone for the purchase of a home.

The next one could be YOU!!!

Loch Highland

A woodsy neighborhood located in the northwest corner of Roswell, Georgia in East Cobb County, just off Highway 92.  Twenty years ago, before every square foot of land was carved into housing developments, developers had more choices of location and style.  It was the availability of a unique location and the novel concept that sparked an idea for Earl McMillen to develop a community of homes that could double as a lake house and a mountain home, but with less than an hour’s commute from the city.

The surrounding area is totally developed now, of course, but the development remains a secluded and wooded enclave that feels more like a resort than a subdivision.

When the subdivision was built the “California Contemporary” was the rage, so most of the houses are built mostly of cedar.  Some of the homes have touches of stacked stone or other “natural” building materials, but there’s none were made of vinyl siding.  There are dozens of variations of the contemporary theme with many different styles of homes, ranging from ranch-like designs to a soaring three story home with floor-to-ceiling glass walls, advertising a spectacular lake view.

Each home in Loch Highland is positioned to take advantage of the natural setting. Trees were not clear-cut and replaced with grassy spaces, making the lots low maintenance.  To this day, a homeowner cannot remove a tree without the permission from the Homeowner’s Association.

On top of all of this great location, your children will attend some of America’s Top Public Schools: Garrison Mill Elementary, Mabry Middle and Lassiter High Schools.

East Cobb Schools-Top in the Nation According to Newsweek Magazine

For those of us who already live in the East Cobb section of Marietta, Georgia, this probably does not come as a big surprise. We have known for a long time that East Cobb has the one of the highest qualities of education for our children. It’s why we moved here. It’s why we searched and searched for the right home here. It’s why we love it here…among many many other reasons.

But, for those of you who are thinking about moving to East Cobb, let me give you three reasons to go ahead and make that move:

Walton High School

Lassiter High School

Pope High School

These three schools were recognized by Newsweek Magazine as America’s Top Public High Schools.

Walton came in at #90 out of 1500 schools in the United States ranked according to a ratio devised by Jay Mathews: the number of Advanced Placement, Intl. Baccalaureate and/or Cambridge tests taken by all students at a school in 2008 divided by the number of graduating seniors. All of the schools on the list have an index of at least 1.000; they are in the top 6 percent of public schools measured this way. (If you have questions about the list, please contact challenge@washpost.com).

Lassiter came in next at #364 and Pope came in at #1072. Not bad for a state that as a whole is lagging a little on the quality of education it offers. This is exactly why East Cobb is still a sought after area of North Metro Atlanta.

You get a “private school” education at a public school price.

Not only that, East Cobb has a small town sort of vibe to it. Everything is close by. Dining, shopping, churches, entertainment. You don’t have to go far from home to enjoy the quality of life that East Cobb offers. So, for that reason, you see folks you know nearly everywhere you go. Hence, giving you that small town feel, within minutes of the big city.
