Award-winning Harcrest Homes has combined its efforts with the developer team of Hopewell Subdivision LLC to once again develop a unique enclave of homes—Milton Place near Alpharetta. This developer group has enjoyed great success in developing small neighborhoods that create a sense of place and provide home sites that allow builders to truly showcase their skills. Milton Place will continue that tradition with a total of 27 custom homes crafted in a beautifully wooded and gated environment.

Over the last 30 years, Harcrest Homes has received over 90 awards from the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association, as well as the Lee Evans Award for Business Management Excellence and the coveted America’s Best Builder award from the National Association of Home Builders and Builder Magazine. With a long history of award-winning designs, quality construction and personal service, Harcrest Homes has become wellknown for creating stylish, well-built homes. But the company has raised the bar with Milton Place, which offers a unique collection of six home plans and an array of exterior elevations. The home plans feature four and five bedrooms and range from 3,334 to 4,291 square feet. The level terrain and heavily wooded surrounding area set the tone for these homes that feature abundant outdoor living areas with covered front porches and spacious decks and patios. Unlike many contemporary homes that sit on postage-stamp-size lots, the homes at Milton Place rest on lots that range from approximately one-third to over one-half acre.

Security, privacy and a true neighborhood setting are evident from the moment you enter through the gated entrance. Inviting streets with sidewalks and decorative streetlights, three-sides brick custom homes inspired by Old World architecture with New World appointments, and lush sod front and back yards conspire to create a true community atmosphere.

All homes at Milton Place come equipped with gourmet kitchens, elegant trim and molding packages, carriage-style garage doors, professionally landscaped lawns, KitchenAid appliances and Delta plumbing features. Large master suites; hardwood floors; tilt-sash, insulated wood windows; dual HVAC; granite countertops; and 10-foot ceilings on the main level and nine-foot ceilings on the second level are just some of the additional elements of construction that set Milton Place apart from the competition.
