Millcroft Wins Community of the Year! 

The Millcroft neighborhood in Buford, GA, was designed using the elevated style and high-quality materials The Providence Group is known for. With new single-family and townhome floor plans, the community boasts uncompromising style and excellent value. Starting from the $400s, this community is ideal for homebuyers looking for an affordable, luxury neighborhood with incredible amenities. 


The home exterior includes cohesive, mixed use designs with a manicured lawn and spacious front porches. Inside the homes, floor plan details have secondary bedrooms for guests, open-concept living areas alongside formal entertaining spaces, and owner-on-main options (per plan). Unique features vary between homes, but they include built-ins, additional flex spaces, and style details like trim and fixtures that help make your new lifestyle truly elevated.

The luxury amenities at Millcroft are second to none. We’ve included a resort-style swimming pool with oversized sun decks, a state-of-the-art fitness center, a large custom pavilion, a stone fireplace, an outdoor grilling and catering kitchen, and numerous green spaces and pocket parks with community firepits.
