Pathway Communities is pleased to announce the opening of The Chimneys, a family-oriented neighborhood located in a natural setting amidst acres of trees and a quiet pond.

The Chimneys rests on the land of a former corporate retreat whose patrons nicknamed the area for the elaborate stone chimneys that once graced the retreat's lodge. One of the historic chimneys will remain a focal point of the neighborhood's unique amenity area.

The Chimneys will have an amenity area complete with tennis courts, a community pavilion and a fishing dock. The neighborhood is centrally located to Peachtree City and Fayetteville's shopping, recreation and entertainment opportunities and is only minutes from I-85 and Hartsfield International Airport. The Starr's Mill school complex, a state-of-the art education facility housing a three-school campus for grades K-12, is adjacent to the neighborhood.

"Centex has built a reputation for offering quality homes in a variety of styles," notes Dac Carver, director of neighborhood marketing for the Home Source Realtors-Builder/Developer Services Group. "We are extremely proud to have them as the exclusive builder at The Chimneys, offering its award-winning array of floor plans and home designs. Homes will start from the low $200s with homesites ranging from one to almost two acres.

Commitment to quality and customer satisfaction, along with almost 50 years of experience, has earned Centex Homes recognition as one of the nation's most respected home builders. Centex Homes was named the 1998 Atlanta-area Builder of the Year by the Home Builders Association and is the only home builder to have ranked among Professional Builder magazine's top ten home builders for the past 27 years.

The Chimneys is located on Hwy 74, 1/2 mile west of Hwy. 85. The Chimneys welcome center is open daily 11 a.m. - 6 p.m. and Sundays 1 - 6 p.m. For more information, call Kim Ryan-Smith at 770-461-4442.
