Fayette County

Fayette County is located south of Atlanta and includes the cities of Fayetteville, Peachtree City, and Tyrone. It features a mix of suburban and rural living just miles from the Atlanta airport. The average sale price of $506,955 in Q3 and Q4 2022 was above the metro average, and home prices increased slightly faster than the metro average at 10.3% year-over-year. Most homes in Fayette County are spacious single-family homes on larger lots. The recently developed Trilith neighborhood—constructed to support the emerging film industry and Trilith Studios next door—has introduced lower maintenance options at a higher price point, including single-family homes on smaller lots and townhomes in a walkable setting. The introduction of these new townhomes contributed to the dramatic increase in Fayette County’s average townhome price, which was up 105% year-over-year.
