NexMetro Communities is opening its first of many Avilla Homes built-to-rent community in the greater Atlanta market.

Avilla Holloway, a new, 136-home cottage-style luxury rental community, opens this month on 14 acres at 700 Cynthia Court, located in the city of Stockbridge. The gated neighborhood features single-level, mostly detached homes designed to offer residents more space, privacy and flexibility than traditional apartment living. The community includes one-, two-, and three-bedroom floor plans with private entrances, front porches and private backyards.

Avilla Holloway marks the first of multiple luxury leased home neighborhoods NexMetro is bringing to the greater Atlanta market, representing an investment of more than $210 million. Avilla Friendship Trails, a 129-home neighborhood in Hoschton, is scheduled to open later this fall; and two additional Avilla neighborhoods (one outside of Augusta in Burnettown, S.C., and one in Henry County) are set to start sitework before year end.

Avilla Holloway will feature community amenities that include a pool and spa, outdoor kitchen and barbecue grills,.
