Less than a year after it opened, the Sage Woodfire Tavern Windy Hill restaurant is on the auction block.
ToNeTo Atlanta, which covers Atlanta-area restaurant and retail doings, reported Tuesday that the restaurant at 3050 Windy Hill Road and Powers Ferry Road has been listed for sale with a selling price of around $250,000 and a monthly lease of just under $25,000.
Last month the Atlanta Business Chronicle reported that the Sage Woodfire Tavern group filed for Chapter 11 bankruptcy, but there was no indication if any of its restaurants would be individually closed or put up for sale.
The Windy Hill location is adjacent to what’s known as Restaurant Row along Powers Ferry Road, and which has a rezoning case for a mixed-use development coming before the Cobb Board of Commissioners next week.
That project would include apartments and an active senior living community and retain the Rose & Crown Tavern, the only existing business surrounded by vacant restaurant space.
The Cobb Planning Commission recommended approval, but some nearby residents are opposed.
The Sage Woodfire Tavern property, which was once the site of a Houston’s restaurant, is not part of that assemblage.
The Sage Woodfire group also briefly operated the Sage Social Kitchen at the Merchants Festival. It closed last fall after only a few months in business.
