Huntcliff

Tucked within a 4.5 mile bend in the Chattahoochee River, Huntcliff is a Sandy Springs neighborhood that daily commuters along Roswell Road between the river and points south can easily pass by without even knowing it is there. But Huncliff is one of the most beautiful of the new city's neighborhoods, forms the city's northwest border and can be considered somewhat unique because it has 3,800 feet of river frontage and 55 acres of land along the river, 33 acres of natural buffer on which nothing can be built.

Huntcliff also presents one of the Chattahoochee River's most idyllic views for people at Roswell's river park, because of the horse stables and riding facilities that are right along the river in the flood plain. Huntcliff has another amenity that is unusual for Sandy Springs neighborhoods. Its houses surround the 36 holes of the Cherokee Country Club, which was formed in 1955, 13 years before the neighborhood was formally chartered.

Huntcliff has a total of 460 lots and almost 450 homes at present count. According to Huntcliff Homes Association President Jim Stockslager, there are 19 homes that are exempt from the association because they were built before the association and covenants were established in 1968. Another unusual aspect of Huntcliff is that it takes 100 percent of the homeowners to vote any change in the covenants. "You can't get 100 percent on anything," he said.
