New Homegoods Store Moving to Downtown Norcross

Sometimes the similarities between a mother and daughter are uncanny.

Enter Sandra Brooks and Holly Isserstedt. The mother and daughter duo both grew up in Mississippi, with Brooks in the '60s and '70s and Isserstedt in the '70s and '80s. Brooks was a single mom most of her daughter’s life, and Isserstedt is now a single mom with two children and lives in Norcross.

They left their home state as adults at different times and lived in other parts of the country. While they have tackled separate careers, the two have worked together on and off for years, in Brooks' own marketing company and side by side at two coffee shops. After some time apart, Brooks has moved to Suwanee from her beach house in Florida to be closer to her daughter, who's been teaching in the metro Atlanta area for 15 years.

Together once again, the mother and daughter are putting their businesses hats on and opening their own shop right in Historic Downtown Norcross called Farmhouse 17.

Farmhouse 17 is an eclectic homegoods store that sells an assortment of items, from furniture to specialty food to jewelry to antiques. Taking over the old Home Norcross shop at 138 Holcomb Bridge Rd., Farmhouse will officially open its doors mid March with a soft opening, and its grand opening is planned for June.
