The five highest-priced home sales reported in East Metro, Georgia for the week ending November 1, 2026 totaled $3.11 million. Monroe accounted for two of them, and Covington, Good Hope and Social Circle one each. All five are single-family homes, and the group runs from a just-completed traditional to a modern farmhouse, with pools, covered porches and open land among the draws.
No. 1 — $695,240 · 1429 Willowbend Pl, Monroe, Georgia
The week’s top sale was a new home in the Spring Creek neighborhood of Monroe, completed in 2026 and the only new construction among the five. It sold for $695,240. Built to the Bentley plan, the traditional brick home has 2,945 square feet, four bedrooms, and four full baths plus a half bath on 1.28 acres, with an unfinished basement below.
Three of the four bedrooms are on the main level, among them the primary suite, which has a walk-in closet and a tiled bath with a soaking tub and a separate shower. The fourth bedroom is upstairs with a bathroom of its own. The kitchen, finished with white cabinetry, quartz counters and an upgraded backsplash, opens to the family room, and a large dining room gives space for bigger meals. Beamed and tray ceilings, bookcases and a fireplace add detail, and the garage is attached.
Camelia Prodan of Reliant Realty Inc. listed the home with Holly McCoy, also of Reliant Realty Inc., and Jason Reynolds of The Rezerve represented the buyer in the week’s highest-priced sale.

No. 2 — $650,000 · 490 Gregory Rd, Covington, Georgia
In Covington, a custom-built home on 4.96 private, level acres sold for $650,000. The setting is secluded, yet convenient to Covington Town Center and I-20. Built in 2017, the two-story traditional home is finished in stone and concrete and has four bedrooms, three full baths and a half bath in 2,976 square feet.
The primary suite is on the main level, with its own fireplace and a large walk-in closet fitted with custom built-ins. The kitchen has a big island with seating and opens to the family room, where a fireplace is set into custom built-in cabinetry. The plan also includes a home office and a formal dining room, and upgraded trim and millwork run through the rooms. Upstairs are the three other bedrooms: one has a private bath, and the other two share a Jack-and-Jill bath. Down the hall, a bonus room over the garage could work as a media room or a home gym.
Much of the appeal is outdoors. A covered porch with a masonry fireplace and an outdoor kitchen overlooks the in-ground saltwater pool, and there is a separate cornhole area for games. The property last sold before the current home was built, for $54,900 in 2016.

No. 3 — $645,000 · 534 Sterling Water Dr, Monroe, Georgia
With 4,883 square feet, the home at 534 Sterling Water Drive in Monroe is the largest of the five, and its six bathrooms, five full and one half, are the most in the group. It sits in Lakeshore Estates, a swim and tennis community, on 0.59 acres, the smallest lot of the week. Built in 2003, it is also the oldest of the five, and it has since been updated. It sold for $645,000.
The six bedrooms are spread across three levels. Two are on the main floor: the primary suite, which opens directly to the rear porch and has an updated bath with a soaking tub and an oversized shower, and a second bedroom with its own full bath, an arrangement suited to guests or relatives. Upstairs is a large bedroom suite with a sitting area and a renovated bath. The finished terrace level, reached from inside or out, adds more bedrooms and two full baths, along with room for recreation, exercise or a home office.
The renovated kitchen has an oversized island, a large pantry and plenty of cabinets, and it connects to the formal dining room and a great room with a gas-starter fireplace. Outside are a front porch framed by mature landscaping, plus a deck and a patio. The home is in zone 5, which the listing says gives a choice between the Walnut Grove and Social Circle school districts. The property last sold for $322,000 in 2020.
Debra Casto of Coldwell Banker Upchurch Realty listed the home, which went under contract 15 days after it came on the market, and Adam Shields of Fickling Lake Country,LLC represented the buyer.

No. 4 — $620,000 · 3706 Highway 83, Good Hope, Georgia
Good Hope’s entry is a modern farmhouse, built in 2021 on two level acres with country views. Black windows, corbels and a front porch with a haint blue ceiling give the exterior its character, and a sprinkler system keeps the landscaping green. It sold for $620,000.
The white kitchen is the centerpiece, with two-tone cabinetry topped by glass-front uppers, a large quartz island, an apron sink and a gas cooktop with a pot filler under a wood vent hood, all set against a Carrara marble backsplash. The family room rises to a vaulted ceiling and is anchored by a floor-to-ceiling fireplace with a reclaimed beechwood mantel, and it opens to the dining area, where a coffered ceiling adds detail. Shiplap accents and 5-inch hardwood floors on the main level carry the farmhouse look, and a roomy mudroom doubles as the laundry.
The home has four bedrooms and four bathrooms, three full and one half, in 2,704 square feet. Three of the bedrooms are on the main level in a split plan, including the primary suite, with wood-beam ceilings, a custom closet and a bath with a double vanity, a soaking tub and a walk-in shower. The fourth bedroom is upstairs with a full bath and can serve as a bonus room instead. Out back, a covered porch has a vaulted wood ceiling, a fireplace, wiring for a TV and a gas line ready for a grill. The property last sold for $559,900 in 2021.
