Overview
The Lofts at 5300 is a 242-unit, transit-oriented condominium community located in the heart of Chamblee's emerging Mid-City District along Peachtree Road. Developed by Charter Development Co, Inc. and completed in phases between 2005 and 2008, this mixed-use community was designed from the ground up to serve residents who value walkability, public transit access, and a modern urban lifestyle outside the congestion of central Atlanta. The development sits just steps from the Chamblee MARTA station on the Gold Line, providing a direct rail connection to Midtown, Buckhead, the airport, and points throughout the metro area. Ground-floor retail spaces, including immediate proximity to a Whole Foods anchored shopping center, reinforce the community's live-work-play design philosophy.
Architecture and Design
Designed by Gary B. Coursey and Associates with project architect Sean Foote, The Lofts at 5300 rises four stories in a contemporary mid-rise form that balances clean modern lines with the warmth of a loft aesthetic. The building's exterior features a mix of masonry and panel cladding that integrates comfortably into the evolving Chamblee streetscape. Inside, the loft-inspired residences showcase exposed ductwork, open floor plans, and generous 10-foot ceilings that create a feeling of volume and light throughout. Large windows frame views of the surrounding neighborhood and interior courtyards, filling units with natural light while maintaining a sense of privacy within the community.
Residences
Floor plans range from one to three bedrooms, with living spaces spanning approximately 608 to 1,400 square feet. Interiors are finished with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, hardwood floors, and large walk-in closets. The open layouts and vaulted ceilings give even the most compact units a spacious, airy character. Every residence includes two covered parking spaces within the secured garage, a notable inclusion that distinguishes The Lofts at 5300 from many comparable developments in the area.
Amenities
Residents enjoy a well-rounded amenity package centered on the building's rooftop level. A swimming pool provides a retreat during warmer months, while the rooftop lounge and pavilion offer covered outdoor gathering space with grilling stations for entertaining. A rooftop tennis court adds an uncommon recreational feature to the community. Inside, a fitness center, business center, and recreation room (complete with a pool table and television lounge area) serve everyday needs. Interior courtyards with a cafe atmosphere create quieter spaces for relaxation or casual conversation. The community is pet friendly, and EV charging stations are available for residents with electric vehicles. A concierge provides additional support and convenience for day-to-day living.
