Beazer Homes Acquires Land for 55+ Active-Adult Community in Cumming, Georgia

Beazer Homes, one of the nation’s largest homebuilders, has purchased 42 acres of land in Cumming, Georgia and will begin building Herrington, a 55+ active-adult community in 2018. This multi-product, age-restricted community will feature 4-story condominium buildings as well as single-family ranch homes in an amenity-rich setting. Herrington will provide a breadth of floorplan options and a vibrant lifestyle well-suited to those looking to downsize without compromising convenience, location, or individuality.

Herrington will offer 75 single-family dwellings, while Gatherings® at Herrington will include 108 condos, with residents enjoying a clubhouse, pool, and outdoor recreational facilities, along with easy access to GA-400 and The Collection at Forsyth – a combination that will appeal to both Atlanta-area buyers and those looking to relocate to the area.

“What drew our development team to the site that will become the premier 55+ community in the Atlanta area is its superior location near GA-400 and Ronald Reagan Pkwy., as well as its proximity to shopping and entertainment. Additionally, the property extended the ability to offer varied home designs to 55-and-better home-shoppers, meeting the needs of this dynamic, diverse demographic segment,” said Stephen Haines, Atlanta Division President. “The area surrounding Herrington is ideal for active-adults, whether local or seasonal. This fact, coupled with Cumming’s robust real estate market, will result in a high level of interest in Herrington and will offer an unprecedented lifestyle and wealth management proposition for those looking to age in-the-mix while enjoying an extremely low-maintenance lifestyle.”

With the addition of this parcel to Beazer’s land portfolio, the company now has 12 communities in various stages of development across the greater Atlanta area and 4 Gatherings condominium communities throughout the country.
