The literal meaning of Alpharetta is an accurate way to describe the city of Alpharetta Georgia. Alpha, or ‘first’, and retta, or ‘town’ makes immediate sense in terms of history – founded in the 1830’s, it is indeed one of the first towns in North Atlanta. But in modern times, Alpharetta Georgia real estate has come to be known as the first choice for many homebuyers in the area.
Originally the county seat of Milton County, Alpharetta became part of North Fulton County when Milton County chose to merge with North Fulton in order to survive the Great Depression of the 1930’s. The area up until that point was a vibrant trading post, surrounded by rich farmland and cotton mills. Although the history of the city is still apparent in many of the quaint buildings that still stand, Alpharetta Georgia real estate is anything but memories of the past.
Alpharetta Georgia real estate draws celebrities, entrepreneurs, and the affluent to the area, and is known as one of the most prestigious cities in North Fulton County. Just 20 miles northeast of Atlanta and residing on the banks of the Chattahoochee River, the location is unbeatable. Many of the communities here are high-end luxury and golf communities, offering the kind of amenities expected such as excellent schools, recreational options like hiking, tennis and swimming, and a tight-knit, tranquil neighborhood feeling.
Those not looking for large acreage estates can also find amazing homes for themselves and their families here. Alpharetta Georgia real estate is brimming with properties such as traditional homes and single-family new construction, offering possibilities for buyers from all walks of life.
