This month we look into the Serenbe community just outside Atlanta, including photos from our recent tour and comments/thoughts from a Midtown/Serenbe family. And, as always, we have all the good stuff, including upcoming events, featured listings and DIY tips (with personal experiences from Dawn herself). At Environs, we value you, your time & your business […]
A Kitchen Rehab Story, by Dawn Landau So we went and did it…finally. After years of threatening to get started, buying tile, contemplating cabinetry paint colors and general procrastinating, we pulled the trigger on a kitchen facelift…at our OWN HOUSE! Terry and I (well, me really) have been talking about updating (i.e., getting rid of […]
by Dawn Landau Earlier this month, a group of my friends, along with my husband and I had the pleasure of getting a personal (golf cart) tour of Serenbe from founder Steve Nygren (it was part of a chef dinner silent auction prize through Project Open Hand). Steve welcomed us to his very different community, […]
This fabulous month of September, where the temperatures are (occasionally) dropping and the leaves are most definitely following their seasonal gravital path, the exuberant and ambitious Environs Real Estate team headed out to some of Atlanta’s music scenes. We hit just a few, so if you have your own favorites you want us to review, […]
John and Dawn decided to try something different this month. Instead of picking one neighborhood in Atlanta, they picked the popular and almost always delicious restaurant category of Farm-to-Table. So we have 3 reviews for you Leon’s Full Service in Decatur, Sprig in Oak Grove, and Bistro Niko in Buckhead – yes, we know, Dawn […]
Babalu Tapas & Tacos By Dawn Landau Who would have thunk it!? This Mississippi “chain” brings it. I was honored with an invite from Steve Saenz of Urban Explorers to a pre-opening trial run at their new Midtown location. The food was free and the proceeds from the beverages went to charities, one of which was […]
Poncey–Highland (PoHi) is a neighborhood near and dear to the Environs Team’s hearts. Both Dawn and John spent plenty of late nights in the 90s in the local bars, ending up eating “breakfast” at the Majestic Diner at 3am. Just down the road is Manuel’s Tavern – the meeting place for local liberals and, which, […]
This month it was an easy jaunt for the Environs Real Estate Team as they took friends and clients over to Oakhurst, a historic neighborhood in Decatur. Oakhurst is another of these wonderful tucked away places in the Atlanta area with an eclectic and, let’s say, progressive community spirit. Y’all may remember that Dawn and […]
Spring time means sun. Sun means patio. Patio means drinks… right? The Environs Team loves a good porch day, so we decided to share some of our favorite Spring cocktails for a little inspiration of your own. Cocktails are made for sharing and as such we have a plethora of drinks perfect for drinking with your […]
We’ve all been there… It’s a crazy day after work and we desperately need to go grocery shopping to save ourselves from ordering way too much food on Uber Eats… Well what happens when local farmers come to you and your community providing healthier, tastier, local foods? You’ve got yourself a farmers market. Farmer’s Markets […]
