Established in 1921, Shirley Hills in Macon, GA is a beautiful and tranquil community. Nestled on the east side of the Ocmulgee River (affectionately called the “right side” by residents). Shirley Hills derives its name from the rolling hills that encompass it. A natural tree canopy makes it a haven for birds, wildlife and nature lovers alike. Located in close proximity to both downtown and Mercer University, it is geographically desirable for those who desire both quiet and convenience.


The homes of this historic neighborhood are some of the finest in the southeast, rivaling the architecture found in some of the best neighborhoods in Atlanta. Famed architects like Neel Reid, Elliott Dunwody and Ellamae Ellis League designed several homes in the neighborhood. Shirley Hills has been featured in publications like Architectural Digest, and was recently a feature on the ADAC sponsored architectural tour.


The Shirley Hills Neighborhood is a vibrant and diverse community, actively involved in enhancing our neighborhood and our city. We are eager to welcome you and invite you to see why so many have decided to call Shirley Hills their home!
