Property Description:
8420 Macon Highway offers a solid investment opportunity directly adjacent to Athens Academy along the rapidly growing U.S. 441 / Macon Highway corridor.
The property consists of a single-story duplex totaling approximately 2,213 SF on 1.09 acres. Each side of the all-brick duplex features its own private entrance, full kitchen, living area, and sunroom, with one unit configured as a 2-bed / 1-bath and the other as a 2-bed / 1.5-bath. The property offers ample parking and a convenient, highly accessible location just minutes from downtown Watkinsville and Athens.
The structure is in good condition—fully usable as-is but would benefit from cosmetic and system upgrades to maximize rental income and long-term value. The location also makes it suitable for future commercial conversion or redevelopment as the corridor continues to develop.
Location Description:
Located next to Athens Academy and just down from Presbyterian Village, this property sits in the path of Oconee County’s most active growth corridor. Nearby developments include the planned Oconee Mercantile mixed-use project, new Christian Brothers Automotive, and other commercial and medical projects emerging near Hog Mountain Road (Highway 53).
This corridor serves as a primary gateway into Watkinsville and southeast Oconee County, where increased traffic, infrastructure investment, and new construction are driving both visibility and long-term property demand.
