Powers Ferry Road to Reopen Today in Chastain Park

For those of us that live in Chastain Park, the light traffic on Powers Ferry Road has been refreshing. However, forgetting that it is closed every time I leave the neighborhood is not as much fun. On Monday I noticed that the hole in the road had been filled in for the most part, minus a foot or so of concrete needing to be added to the top. Today that is happening. All hands are on deck with finishing touches being applied to the new drain that now enters the golf course from under the road, and the paving trucks taking care of  paving the road. The latest report from the Chastain Park Conservancy is that Powers Ferry Road will reopen today at 4pm.

All new pipes have been installed under Powers Ferry and let out at the bottom of the hill on the golf course. So once they open the road it should be smooth sailing until they start working on replacing the Nancy Creek bridge, which could take as long as a year to complete.

 

Thanks,

Carson Matthews

Chastain East Begins Construction

Yesterday I took a drive over to check out Chastain East, a new development on the east side of Chastain Park. This western stretch of Wieuca Road was previously the home of 15 single family residences on 8.4 acres. Once complete Chastain East will have 32 new single family residences priced from $1,000,000 and up.

http://www.chastaineast.com

As you drive down Wieuca Road you will see the first two homes are already out of the ground and framed up. Chastain East will offer several floor plans including options with master on the main and master up. All of the floorpans include a covered front porch, rear entry two car garage, and rear covered porch. According to their website, each home in Chastain East will feature the very latest in home design trends, energy efficiency and craftsmanship. If you are looking for a home that gives you the freedom to lock and leave, this could be a great option for you. In a Q&A with one of the developers Southeast Capital Companies, Jay Clark explained that the home owners association will maintain all yards and common areas.

The interior finishes look amazing and have lots of options, both standard and upgrades. Below are several photos representative of how the interiors will look. Click on the image to see the finishes guide on their website.

Below are several pictures showing what the development site looks like today. Once complete the streets will be tree-lined and have a much cozier feel than what you see today.

Chastain East is being developed in a partnership between Southeast Capital Companies and Home South Communities. For more information on this development, fill out the contact form on their website http://chastaineast.com/en/contact and check back here for updates as this new development comes together.
