Smart Neighborhoods
The first step to getting settled into a new place is locating just the right home for you and your family. Montgomery offers single and multi-family residences ranging from apartments in the heart of the city to townhomes and lofts in historic neighborhoods full of Southern charm. Quaint homes in the garden district appeal to those who prefer a house with history, while elegant new homes offer amenities such as golf, swimming, tennis and clubhouse facilities right in your own backyard.
MGM also adheres to a Smart Code, which is a zoning and planning code that encourages sustainability, walkability, and mixed-use for development. Several neighborhoods – Hampstead and The Waters - have taken the concept to heart and offer several unique retail and dining options as part of the neighborhood experience. Hampstead is also a Southern Living magazine inspired community and features several Southern Living inspired homes and house plans.
