The 60-second read
Stockbridge is the Henry County city closest to Atlanta and the airport: 447 closings in the 12 months through September 2026 at a median of $311,728. That's well under McDonough's $359,450 median, and you're roughly 10 miles closer in.
The market is steady rather than hot. The annual median has held near $310,000 since 2022, the median sale took 42 days, and the average close came in at 95.4% of list. The stock is mostly 1980s and 90s subdivisions, with Eagle's Landing as the big name on the higher end.
What the housing stock actually is
44% of homes sold in Stockbridge were built in the 1980s and 90s. So the typical listing is an established subdivision home with mature trees and an earlier-generation floor plan. Another 27% date to the 2000s.
The middle half of sales runs $263,250 to $380,250, with typical homes between 1,581 and 2,665 square feet at $147 per square foot. 17% of sales since 2020 were homes built in 2020 or later, so newer options do surface. The annual median went $260,500 in 2021, $307,000 in 2022, $310,000 in 2025. Flat since the jump.
