You’re not just buying a home, you’re buying history. Brooke Powell does more than just help you buy or sell your home. An agent who deals in sophisticated luxury and “elevated experience,” Powell is passionate about preserving and cultivating the ongoing spirit of “place.”

She fell in love with this concept at the University of Georgia when sorority “house tours” introduced her to the history of the buildings dating back to 1896. “Just like people are passionate about genealogy and ancestry, I loved learning the ancestry of a place.” Deeply committed to her own generational ties to the area, past and future, she shares, “All my family is here. I love this city. I’m personally invested. I’d love for my daughters to want to be here too, and that extends beyond my family. I want to present the city as well as it can be and show it in a way people can appreciate what we have here and long to make it their home with the same heart.” This isn’t just sentiment, Powell puts time and effort into research and development, going as far as combing archives for recorded letters to prove in the recent selling of 522 East Henry Street to prove its original condition as a single-family home to allow for its restoration to what it once was. The block now matches earliest glory from 1910 and the new owners have a written history to pass on for generations to hold the history and beauty of the “place” they have the extraordinary fortune to live.
