WHITEHALL
Whitehall is a beautiful enclave of 14 custom homes with incredible skyline views of Downtown, Midtown and Buckhead and is conveniently located in the Smyrna/Vinings area with low Cobb County taxes and no city taxes.

Homeowners enjoy homes with 3 stop elevators, custom tailored finishing throughout from Master Craftsmen, including hardwood floors, granite/quartz countertops and custom heavy trim packages.
Whitehall is within walking distance to shopping, dining and entertainment and easy access to airport and all major interstates. Whitehall is HOA controlled and each home comes with 2-10 Structural Warranty and Benchmark’s 1 year Builder Warranty.
