Albany Area, Georgia Top 5 Home Sales: A 15-Acre Smithville Estate Leads, With Two Leesburg Craftsman Homes Close Behind

Country acreage, two recently built Craftsman homes in Leesburg subdivisions and a renovated home on three acres in Omega made up the week's top sales.

Albany Area, Georgia Top 5 Home Sales: A 15-Acre Smithville Estate Leads, With Two Leesburg Craftsman Homes Close Behind

These were the highest-priced home sales reported in Albany Area, Georgia for the week ending November 8, 2026, and together they came to $2.443 million. Four of the five homes are in Lee County and one is in Worth County, and they range from a home finished this year to one built in 1961.

The group runs from a large estate on 15 acres to an Albany home of 1,792 square feet, and from two-bedroom to five-bedroom homes. The same agent was on both sides of two of the sales.

No. 1 — $750,000 · 850 Highway 118 E, Smithville, Georgia

Top home sale No. 1 in Albany Area, Georgia β€” 850 Highway 118 E, Smithville, Georgia, week ending November 8, 2026

A long, tree-lined driveway leads to this two-story Traditional home in Smithville, set on 15 acres of grounds. Built in 2003 of brick with HardiPlank-type siding and wood trim, it has five bedrooms, six bathrooms (five full and one half) and 5,725 square feet of living space, the most land and the largest home in this week’s group.

A large chandelier hangs from the second-story ceiling above the entrance foyer, and crown molding, columns and arches appear throughout the rooms. A carved mantel frames the fireplace in the formal living room at the front of the home, and the formal dining room has seating for 12. The kitchen pairs custom oak cabinetry with South African granite, double ovens, an island and a walk-in pantry, and its breakfast nook is wrapped in windows that look out on the pool. The den, open to the kitchen, has a second fireplace between built-in shelves.

There is room beyond the main living spaces as well: an office fitted with two built-in desks, a finished bonus room on the main floor, a media room, a sunroom and a mudroom, plus one laundry room downstairs and another upstairs. A carved staircase climbs to the second floor. The primary suite has a sitting area, a large private bath and a big walk-in closet, and every bedroom has a walk-in closet of its own.

Outside, the gunite pool has generous decking for lounging, and the yard is fenced. There are covered and open patios, landscaped grounds, a three-car garage and a front porch made for rocking chairs. The property last sold for $713,800 in 2025.

The Amanda Wiley & Kyla Standring Team of ERA ALL IN ONE REALTY was the listing agent on the week’s top sale, one of two listings for the team and its brokerage in this Top 5.

No. 2 — $629,000 · 223 Tupelo Dr, Leesburg, Georgia

Top home sale No. 2 in Albany Area, Georgia β€” 223 Tupelo Dr, Leesburg, Georgia, week ending November 8, 2026

On a quiet cul-de-sac in the Quail Chase neighborhood of Leesburg, this custom Craftsman home was built in 2024 on 1.20 acres, with natural buffers of trees and plantings giving the lot its privacy. It went under contract one day after it was listed and sold at its full asking price of $629,000.

The home is all on one level, with four bedrooms, four bathrooms (three full and one half) and 2,601 square feet. Ceilings reach 10 feet, with beamed and vaulted ceilings among its features, and plantation shutters, crown molding and leathered granite countertops are used throughout. The kitchen has GE Cafe appliances with a gas range, and the living area is built around a wood-burning fireplace fitted with vented gas logs. The primary suite has a soaking tub and a walk-in shower tiled to the ceiling.

Much of the appeal is at the back. A heated and cooled four-season porch of 432 square feet looks over the yard, the pool and the spa, so it can be used in any month. The heated spa spills over into the pool, and a louvered pergola shades part of the pool deck. The backyard is fully fenced, and the landscaped grounds have irrigation. Deer are a regular sight in the mornings and evenings. The property last sold for $53,000 in 2024.

James Scott Romero and Lydia Romero, both of Southeastern Outdoors, were the listing agents.

No. 3 — $414,000 · 106 Sawtooth Dr, Leesburg, Georgia

Top home sale No. 3 in Albany Area, Georgia β€” 106 Sawtooth Dr, Leesburg, Georgia, week ending November 8, 2026

The newest home in this week’s Top 5, this Craftsman was completed in 2026 in Sawtooth Oaks, a new Leesburg subdivision with pickleball courts and walking trails, a playground and a pavilion with a kitchen for cookouts, as well as fenced parking for boats and RVs. The home sits on a wooded lot of 0.76 acres and sold at its full asking price of $414,000.

What sets it apart is a floor plan built for more than one generation. Within its 2,089 square feet on one level are four bedrooms and three bathrooms, and one bedroom forms part of a separate suite with its own living room, kitchenette and bath, reachable from the rest of the home but private from it. That living room could serve just as well as an office, a playroom or a bonus room.

In the main part of the home, a large living room with a fireplace and a soaring vaulted ceiling opens to the kitchen. The kitchen has an island with seating and a walk-in pantry, and a dining room lined with windows brings in the light. The primary suite has double vanities, a tiled shower with glass and a walk-in closet, and luxury vinyl plank flooring runs throughout. Outside are HardiPlank-type siding, a covered back porch and a two-car garage.

The Amanda Wiley & Kyla Standring Team of ERA ALL IN ONE REALTY was on both sides of the sale, which gave the team and its brokerage a second listing in this Top 5.
