Wildwood is located in the southwestern portion of Buckhead in the area to the west of Howell Mill Road between Collier Road and Peachtree Creek. Here you will find a mix of original bungalow, ranch, and cottage-style homes (many of which have been renovated) and traditional-style new construction homes. Wildwood was not developed until the 1930’s and 1940’s because it was hallowed ground in the Battle for Atlanta.
