Berkeley Park is a historic community near retail hubs

Before Berkeley Park was established in 1921, it was an open pastureland where cows grazed across what is now West Midtown. “Berkeley Park is a great spot. A lot is happening, from commercial development to cool restaurants and places to shop," says Juli St George, a Realtor with Keller Williams Realty Intown Atlanta who moved to the city nearly 20 years ago. The Berkeley Park Neighborhood Association has been bringing the community together since 1955, addressing issues from crime prevention to neighborhood beautification. With Buckhead and Midtown less than 5 miles away, the neighborhood offers close access to the city. “If I lived in Berkeley Park, I’d take the kids and dogs to make a loop around the Beltline at Westside Park, hit Topgolf, stop by Jeni’s Ice Cream and end the evening with cocktails.”

Walks along the Atlanta Beltline and nearby Westside Reservoir Park

Cyclists and walkers are just a mile from the Northside Trail, part of the larger Beltline project. This nearly 3-mile section connects to some of Atlanta’s busiest neighborhoods and recreational hubs, accessible at Tanyard Creek Park near Bobby Jones Golf Course. “The Beltline is another big draw,” St George says. She also mentions Westside Reservoir Park, which is 3 miles away. “It’s a great place to take dogs for a walk. They also have a huge playground that my kids love.” Closer to home, Underwood Hills Park offers a small basketball court and outdoor workout equipment. The 2-acre Hill at Waterworks is one of the tallest points in the city, peering over the glassy high rises of Buckhead, midtown and downtown.

Historic houses and new construction at The Berkeleys

Berkeley Park’s homes have come a long way since the early days when Seaboard Railroad workers who lived here relied on wells and kerosene. Residences from the 1930s to 1950s have been updated and typically range from $449,000 to $675,000. The lots tend to be close together and most have small gardens. “There are many Craftsman-style homes, which offer a different look compared to the many brick ranches in Atlanta. Wooden-frame houses and clapboard siding offer more architectural interest,” St George says. Newer luxury townhouses, like The Berkeleys, start at around $750,000 and have modern layouts. Some properties have been torn down and replaced with larger, contemporary designs that can go for $2 million or more.

Reoccurring events at Atlantic Station and museums in Midtown

Atlantic Station has a lot going on throughout the year. On weekends from March to September, the Creator’s Market brings together local vendors selling jewelry, home decor and baked goods. The Beer, Bourbon & BBQ Festival, a regular February event for over 10 years, spotlights Southern-style smoked meats. The neighborhood is about 3 miles from cultural spots like The Atlanta Opera, the High Museum of Art and the Atlanta Symphony Hall.

Restaurants and breweries at nearby Chattahoochee Food Works

Just under a mile away, Atlantic Station and Westside Provisions District are where locals often go to shop or grab a bite. The Works is an 80-acre mixed-use development that opened in 2022, home to Chattahoochee Food Works. “It’s a huge food hall, and I’ve been there hundreds of times,” St George says. “They have five-star restaurants and if you’re into breweries, they do brewery tours.” Just down the road, Nuevo Laredo Cantina has been a go-to for authentic Mexican food since 1992. On the neighborhood's northern edge, The District at Howell Mill and Howell Mill Square have everyday chain stores like Kroger, PetSmart, Ulta and HomeGoods.

Top-ranking Westminster Schools

The neighborhood is served by Atlanta Public Schools, which includes Rivers Elementary, Sutton Middle and North Atlanta High, all offering the International Baccalaureate Program. Rivers and Sutton both earn B-plus grades on Niche, and North Atlanta has an A rating. About 5 miles away in Buckhead is The Westminster Schools, an A-plus-rated private school ranked second in the state. “People from all over Atlanta send their kids here, driving 30 minutes just to get them to school,” St George says. Georgia Institute of Technology is one of the country's top universities and is less than a mile away.

Getting to Midtown Atlanta without interstates

Berkeley Park is just 15 miles from Hartsfield-Jackson Atlanta International Airport, with quick access to Interstates 75 and 85. Midtown Atlanta is less than 5 miles away, easily reached without driving the interstates, and there are MARTA bus stops dotted along Northside Drive Northwest. The area's proximity to the city makes it convenient for locals working at places like the Atlanta Technology Center and Georgia Tech. The neighborhood's CAP Index Crime Score is 5 out of 10, higher than the national average of 4. The community also sits next to a busy railroad corridor and industrial area, which can cause noise and congestion.
