Price & listing history
Building permits
Comparable recent sales
Only 1 closed sale within about 10 miles in Gwinnett County in the last 18 months matched this home’s type and size. Fewer than 3 is too few for a median, so none is shown.
Limited comparable data: these sales are listed for reference only. A licensed agent can prepare a property-specific comparative market analysis. Sold prices are MLS closed-sale records, deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
The Messtimate
Insufficient local evidence for an automated estimate. The Messtimate is a deliberately simple range — living area × recent closed-sale $/sq ft from comparable homes nearby — and it only renders when at least 3 defensible sales exist within about 10 miles in Gwinnett County in the last 18 months. Only 1 qualifies for this home, so no dollar range is shown. It is not an appraisal or a valuation.
Methodology: the range would be 1,922 sq ft × the interquartile $/sq ft of comparable closed sales (same property type, living area within 30%, closed within 18 months, nearest verified subdivision, 3-mile, then 10-mile same-county stage). Estimate for general information only; never an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 9, 2026.

What community is 1686 Ember Way in?
1686 Ember Way is in Chimney Hills in Snellville, Gwinnett County. Too few comparable closed sales exist nearby for this page to show local sales statistics; a licensed agent can prepare a comparative market analysis.

How are property taxes on 1686 Ember Way estimated?
The estimate on this page (about $4,043 per year) assumes the county reassesses at the list price. Georgia counties reassess after a sale and exemptions such as homestead must be applied for by the new owner, so the seller's current bill is not a guide. Confirm with the county tax assessor.

A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.

Cost and market figures are derived from available data and simple calculations, not a professional appraisal. We make no representation that any estimate reflects fair market value.
