Country Star Jo Dee Messina Prepares To Say ‘Bye Bye’ to Her Atlanta-Area Abode

She’ll catch you later! Country star Jo Dee Messina is putting her south Atlanta home on the market.

Known for her hit songs “Heads Carolina, Tails California” and “Bye Bye,” Messina is parting with her house in Brooks, GA, in preparation for her move back to Nashville, TN.

The musician bought the six-bedroom, 4.5-bathroom home in 2021 for $1.1 million. But she’s made some upgrades to the property and is set to price the place at $3 million.

Room to stretch out

The stunning home was custom built in 2016 and is nestled on 5 acres.

It has a private backyard with a heated, saltwater pool and a hot tub that Messina installed after she moved in. The space is perfect for backyard barbecues or just lounging by the pool.

The gorgeous, screened front porch is a readymade backdrop for morning coffee or evening cocktails

Inside the 5,000-square-foot space is a large, bright kitchen with an oversized, quartz center island; a dining and sitting area; and a fireplace.

Beyond the kitchen is a formal dining room and a living room with a gas, brick fireplace.

There’s also a home office, which Messina currently uses as her music room.

The primary bedroom on the main floor has two walk-in closets and a luxury bathroom with two Carrara marble vanities, a soaking tub, and tiled shower. A butler’s pantry rounds out the first floor.

The remaining bedrooms and bathrooms are on the home’s second level.

High-end details such as French doors, exposed beams, and transom windows add an elegant touch throughout the home.

Sweet in-law suite

The upscale dwelling features an attached, one-bedroom apartment with a full-sized kitchen, living room, dining room, full bath, and separate laundry. The space has a private entrance and is perfect for hosting family or overnight guests.

The property’s additional amenities include a three-car garage, 900 square feet of covered porches, and a sprinkler system. 

Quiet but convenient

The home is serene yet central to many attractions. For starters, it’s just a short drive to shopping destinations and Falcon Field Airport. And it’s under an hour’s drive from where the Atlanta Braves play—great news for baseball fans.

Messina, 52, is an award-winning country music singer who rose to prominence in the 1990s. She is currently on tour.
