virginia highland

Locals call it VaHi, and it’s one of Atlanta’s most beloved neighborhoods for good reason. Just northeast of downtown, Virginia-Highland is a walkable village of 1920s Craftsman bungalows, tree-lined streets, and locally owned shops and restaurants clustered around a handful of charming commercial corners.

The walkability is the draw — VaHi earns one of the highest walk scores in the city — and the dining scene rewards it. You’ll find institutions like George’s, serving the neighborhood since 1948, brunch favorite Murphy’s, and Atkins Park, the oldest continuously licensed tavern in Atlanta. It’s the kind of place where you get to know your baristas and bartenders by name.

Homes here are mostly classic bungalows and historic two-stories on quiet, leafy streets, many lovingly restored. That timeless housing stock and walk-everywhere lifestyle keep Virginia-Highland in steady demand and hold values strong.

Who loves Virginia-Highland: buyers who want historic charm, a real village feel, and the ability to walk to dinner — without sacrificing access to the rest of intown.
