Having grown up in the area, Bonnie spoke to Milton's origins as a preserved agricultural village centered on the Crabapple district, the market's normalization following the pandemic-era run-up, and the city's architectural and design controls.

A Milton Estate, National Coverage, and a Record Sale

In February 2024, the Bonnie Smith Group listed 13090 Freemanville Road in Milton — a 25,000-square-foot estate built by former UPS International president Ron Wallace, featuring a 4,000-square-foot indoor replica of an Old West town inspired by the film Tombstone. The Wall Street Journal broke the story, and it was picked up nationally. The home closed in June 2025 at $7.25 million, making it Milton's highest-priced sale of the year.

The story was also picked up by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, The Real Deal and WSB-TV Channel 2 Atlanta, and syndicated nationally through McClatchy newspapers and Yahoo News.
