Ardmore Park is named for the small neighborhood nestled among towering Beeches and Oaks which lies within in Buckhead. It is located just cross Tanyard Creek from Tanyard Creek Park and shares its Civil War History. 

In the Tanyard Creek Battle, the ultimate battle for control of Atlanta, General Joseph E. Johnston who a conservative tactician was relieved of command by President Jefferson Davis.  He was replaced at a crucial point during the middle of the campaign by a more aggressive Major General John Bell Hood, the commander of the Tennessee Army.  Too late, Hood learned that General Sherman had split his Union Army.  Heavily outnumbered, Hood found himself ill-positioned to counter the advance and also learned that a significant number of troops had advanced directly toward Atlanta and circumvented his plan to drive the Union Army back.  Thus tremendous loss was suffered on both sides and the battle is noted as one of the bloodiest on Southern soil.

Ardmore Park was formerly known as 28th Ardmore and is actually a pretty little park in the Ardmore neighborhood which features towering mature trees and a rolling terrain.  Runoff from a stormwater culvert creates a stream that runs through the park as well. 

Ardmore is a gem of a neighborhood in south Buckhead which is nestled away from the hustle and bustle of nearby “big city” of Atlanta.  The quaint neighborhood consists of only a handful of winding streets which are heavily canopied with massive trees.  The residents are passionate about preserving a natural environment as evidenced by the greenspace park as well as the care given to the extravagant landscaping throughout the neighborhood.

For the convenience of the residents, there are 60 restaurants within very short of neighborhood center.  Errands to places such as the dry cleaners, bank, or such establishments are within walking distance.

Ardmore’s streets are lined with brick and frame cottages, two-story homes, and a smattering of newer homes on modest sized, but heavily wooded lots.  Prospective homeowners will appreciate the timeless and classic elegance of the neighborhood which was developed in the 1930s and 1940s.  The neighborhood also has a wide variety of housing types including single-family homes, duplexes, apartments, and condominiums. 

Ardmore Park homes offer houses which are sturdy and spacious and the styles range from cottages to classic revivals, each having its own unique character.  The character of the neighborhood can be summed up in a classic statement, “They don't make them like this anymore.'"
