Facts about Fox Hill
Fox Hill is a small, stable community located in Peachtree Corners in the
Western Corner of Gwinnett County, Georgia. It is located one half mile from Jones
Bridge Park on the banks of the Chattahoochee River. The predominant style of homes
are two-story brick traditional with a few contemporary and ranch style homes interspersed
on mostly half acre lots. The neighborhood includes fifty five (55) homes on four (4)
streets: Fox Hill Drive, Fox Hill Court, East Jones Bridge Road and Jones Bridge
Circle. The prices range from $200,000-$325,000 and it continues to be a popular
neighborhood because of well built homes and it's proximity to shopping and good
schools. It has a homeowner's Association and By-Laws with no restrictive covenants
and has annual dues of $65.00. Fox Hill has a good feel to it. It's not
so large that the neighbors lose touch with one another. With only 55 homes, it is
possible to call every neighbor by name while out on a walk in the evening.
History of Fox Hill
THE LAND:
Much of the area's surrounding land (up to Highway 141) had been in the
Medlock family since before the Civil War. When Bishop Smith married Susie Medlock,
the Medlock family gave the newlyweds all the land that encompasses Fox Hill, the
Orchards, Peachtree Plantation, and Jones Bridge Park as a wedding gift. Corn,
cotton and row crops were always planted on the land until the 1960s when the land was
rented out. Cattle and horses then replaced the crops. Land parcels were sold
piece by piece by the aging Smiths. Fox Hill land was purchased by a developer,
Triad/TST Corporation. It was then subdivided and sold to six builders: Don
Jordan, Steve Hensford, Weldon Nash, Carl Riden, Charles DeVore/Robert Pierce and
Ambassador Homes.
THE OLD FARMHOUSE:
An old white, two-story farmhouse was the home of Bishop and Susie
Smith. It stood where the house at 5214 Fox Hill Drive now stands and the lane led
to East Jones Bridge Road. The Smith's has five children. A son, John sold all
of the land that now encompasses River Crest to a developer who then subdivided and sold
the losts to builders. The farmhouse was razed in 1980. The Orchards
subdivision is so-named as it occupies the site of the Smith's orchard of fruit
trees. Bishop Smith died in 1982 at the age of 97. His wife preceded him in
death in the early 1970s.
THE FIRST HOMES:
Weldon Nash built the first home at 5275 Fox Hill Drive in 1978.
Next to be built were the residences at 5274 and 5304 Fox Hill Drive. The last home
built was in 1984 at 4012 Jones Bridge Circle to become the wonderful neighborhood Fox
Hill is today.
