Wednesday, July 10, 2002 Monarch Village tops 250 home sales What was once Lion Country Safari land in Stockbridge has now become one of the best-selling master-planned communities in Atlanta's southern crescent. With over 250 home sales since its inception only two short years ago, Monarch Village's water park with slide tower and water mushroom now replaces the animal cages and observatory which once graced the rolling landscape of the 440-acre tract. While Monarch's massive amenity area contributes to much of the community's success, Peggy Sullivan, vice president of marketing at Pathway Communities, the developer of Monarch Village says Monarch's success is a combination of many different factors. "From its variety of home styles and price ranges to its unique amenity package and proximity to Hartsfield International Airport and downtown Atlanta, Monarch has something for just about everyone." Monarch Village's success is not limited to its home sales. The community has been praised by the Atlanta Regional Commission for its development techniques and has received numerous awards from the Greater Atlanta Home Builders Association for its marketing initiatives. In addition to its unique water park, Monarch has a 16-acre lake with boating and fishing facilities, a soccer field, basketball courts, a variety of neighborhood parks and tot lots and over 10 miles of walking trails and sidewalks. Home styles at Monarch Village range from traditional to turn-of-the-century to empty-nester and are priced from the low $100s to over $400,000. An on-site elementary school will open at the community in 2004. To visit Monarch Village, take I-75 South to Exit 228. Go right on Highway 138, and turn left on Speer Road.
