What $525,000 Bought Near Milton High: 1010 Bradford Drive, Roswell (2026)

At $525,000, 1010 Bradford Drive in Roswell, Georgia offered three bedrooms, two and a half baths and 2,215 square feet on a 0.144-acre lot in the Crabapple Creek neighborhood, with a listing page that states it is currently zoned for Milton High School, according to DreamSmith Realty's listing published in September 2026. The home is now under contract, so this guide uses it as a case study in what that price bought in north Fulton County, and points to similar homes still on the market. The price works out to about $237 per square foot. For comparison, the Zillow Home Value Index put the typical home value in Roswell's 30076 ZIP code at $577,685 in August 2026, so this home was listed about 9% below the ZIP's middle-tier benchmark. The listing explains part of that gap: the home was sold as-is as part of an estate, leaving cosmetic updates to the next owner.

What did $525,000 buy at 1010 Bradford Drive?

The price bought a two-story home with a fenced, landscaped backyard, a rock patio and pergola, a south-facing front that brings natural light into the main rooms, and a location the listing describes as walkable to Downtown Crabapple and a short drive to Downtown Roswell and Downtown Alpharetta. The listing page (September 2026) shows first- and second-floor plans and a Matterport 3D walkthrough.

The listing also says the home was carefully maintained, with records and receipts kept over the years, and that it was being sold as-is as part of an estate. In practice, that meant a buyer would choose their own paint, finishes and hardware rather than paying for a seller's recent selections.

Is 1010 Bradford Drive still available?

No. The home is under contract, and its listing page carries an under-contract status. If you were watching this home, the useful next step is to look at similar homes now listed in the same area.

Start with current Milton listings and current Roswell listings, then read our Milton community guide and Roswell community guide for how the two cities differ. Ask about school assignment for each address, since a Roswell mailing address and the Milton High School zone do not always go together.

How did the price compare with north Fulton home values in 2026?

The price sat below the broad benchmarks for Roswell and well below those for Milton and Alpharetta, which is what made the listing stand out. Zillow's index is a modeled middle-tier value across all home types, not a median sale price, so it frames the area rather than valuing one house.

What does price per square foot say about an as-is estate sale?

Price per square foot says the buyer paid less per foot partly because the home needed cosmetic work, so the true comparison is per-foot price plus the cost of planned updates. Using the listing's September 2026 figures, $525,000 divided by 2,215 square feet gives about $237. A recently renovated home nearby may show a higher per-foot price that already includes new paint, flooring and fixtures.

For an as-is sale, get contractor quotes during the due diligence period, add them to the price, and compare that total with updated homes of similar size. Our Georgia due diligence and earnest money guide explains how that period works.

What would the monthly payment have been at September 2026 rates?

With 20% down, the principal and interest payment at this price would be about $2,803 a month at the 7.03% average 30-year fixed rate that Freddie Mac's Primary Mortgage Market Survey reported for the week of September 24, 2026. That assumes a $420,000 loan over 30 years and excludes property taxes, insurance and any HOA dues.

A loan of that size sits under the 2026 baseline conforming loan limit of $832,750 for one-unit homes announced by the Federal Housing Finance Agency on November 25, 2025. Your lender can confirm the limit for Fulton County and the rate you qualify for.

What does the Milton High School zone mean at this price?

The Milton High School zone meant a buyer could reach a Fulton County Schools high school with a strong record at a price below the typical Milton city value. Fulton County Schools reported on September 28, 2026 a districtwide four-year graduation rate of 93.44% for the Class of 2026 and named Milton among the high schools that sustained rates above 97%.

The listing says the home is currently zoned for Milton High School. Zones can change, and the district announced on September 28, 2026 community forums on proposed boundary adjustments for some schools north of the Chattahoochee River. Confirm the full assignment for any address you consider.
