Gordon Acres
Homes for Sale in Austell, GA
True comps, carrying-cost math, and listings before the portals.
Over the 12 months ending 2026-09-03, 6 recorded sales closed at a median of $276,000, $215 per square foot, a median 93 days on market, sellers accepting 90% of original asking (+7% versus the prior year). At the median price and Cobb County's 2025 rate of 27.16 mills, annual property tax runs about $3,000.
Gordon Acres is trading at a median of $276,000 with a median price per square foot of $215.18, which puts pricing here well below the per-foot figures typical of newer or renovated stock elsewhere in Cobb County. That spread usually points to a mix of home ages and condition levels rather than a single consistent product, so two listings a street apart can price very differently depending on updates.
The median 93 days on market is the number that matters most for both sides right now. That is a slow pace, and it tells sellers to price realistically from day one rather than testing the market, and it tells buyers there is room to negotiate on terms, timeline, or condition credits rather than rushing an offer.

Gordon Acres market snapshot (as of September 3, 2026): the median sale price is about $276K ($215 per sq ft over the trailing 12 months of closed sales), and a median 93 days on market for closed sales. The trailing-12-month median is up 7% from the prior 12 months, computed from record-level Georgia MLS closed sales (6 closings in the current window).
Gordon Acres sits in Austell within Cobb County, an established pocket where current MLS activity (drawn from a six-month closing window) shows a wide range in per-foot value, consistent with a market where condition drives price more than location alone.
Who Gordon Acres is best for.
Best for
- Buying with flexibility on timeline and willingness to negotiate given the slower, 93-day median pace.
- Trading up in space or lot size at a price point where per-foot values still vary by condition.
- Buying to renovate or add value, where a below-market per-foot entry point leaves room to improve and reprice.
Probably not for
- Needing a fast, competitive-offer close, since the current median days on market runs long.
- Wanting a community with organized amenities, since none are identified in current MLS listings.
- Wanting a uniform, single-standard product where every home shares similar age and finish level.
The Gordon Acres buying strategy.
If we were buying in Gordon Acres today, this is the order of operations we would run for our clients.
Underwrite the condition first. Price the roof, HVAC, and systems honestly before judging any list price; condition swings value here more than square footage alone.
Match the home to real comps. Recent sales of similar condition and lot, not the asking price, tell you what a home is worth.
Move deliberately, not desperately. Neither side has a decisive edge, so a well-prepared, fairly-priced offer wins without overpaying.
Line up financing and inspection early. A pre-approval and an inspection plan let you act fast and negotiate from evidence.
Keep an agent in your corner. The listing agent works for the seller; we represent you and prepare a hand-built valuation before any offer in Gordon Acres.
Reading the Numbers
The combination of a $276,000 median price and a $215.18 median price per square foot suggests homes here vary meaningfully in size and finish level. Buyers should expect to evaluate each property on its own condition rather than assuming a uniform standard across the community, and sellers should lean on comparable recent closings rather than list price alone when setting expectations.
At a median 93 days on market, this is not a fast-turnover pocket. That extended timeline is worth factoring into any offer strategy or listing plan: sellers who price to the data tend to close faster than those who chase the top of the range, and buyers have more room to negotiate inspection items or timing than they would in a tighter market.
The location and the amenities are priced into every listing in Gordon Acres. The deal is won or lost on condition, the comps, and the renovation math.
