Simpsonwood property in Peachtree Corners
Simpsonwood is 227 wooded acres on the banks of the Chattahoochee. It’s a meeting place for church groups, and a sanctuary for many visitors. It’s also a prime tract in the middle of suburban Peachtree Corners worth more than $100 million, and a property with a history of being too valuable to keep.
