Oakleigh Homes for Sale in Powder Springs, GA

If you're looking for spacious luxury living in Powder Springs, Oakleigh is one of the most impressive neighborhoods you'll find. I'm talking about large homes on generous lots with prices currently ranging from the mid $500s to just under $900,000. This isn't your typical starter home neighborhood—these are executive-style properties with substantial square footage.

What I love about Oakleigh is the variety you'll find here. You've got everything from 4-bedroom homes to 7-bedroom estates with multiple configurations. The square footage ranges from around 3,700 to over 6,000 square feet, so there's definitely room to spread out.

The location is solid too. You're still in Powder Springs with easy access to I-20 and all the shopping and dining along Powder Springs Road, but you're tucked away in a neighborhood that feels more private and established. I've helped several clients find their dream homes in Oakleigh, and the common theme is always the same—they're impressed by the quality of construction and the value compared to similar homes in closer-in suburbs.
