About this House

*Investor Special in Prime Athens Location - Unlock the Potential at 139 Tilson Rd* Located just 5 minutes from Five Points, Bear Hollow Zoo, and the UGA Botanical Gardens-and under 10 minutes to downtown Athens and Epps Bridge shopping (Costco, Best Buy, and more)-this property sits in one of the most desirable sweet spots between Athens and Oconee County. The location alone makes this a can't-miss opportunity. This 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers 1,553 sq ft of living space, but savvy investors will quickly see the potential to expand beyond 2,000 sq ft by converting the existing garage into a spacious master suite. The layout already includes a remodeled bathroom just off the garage entry-ideal for a seamless transformation into a 4-bedroom, master-on-main floor plan. Surrounded by mature landscaping and tucked into a quiet neighborhood, the home feels private while still offering all the perks of convenience and community. With flexible renovation options, this is the perfect canvas for a flip, long-term rental, or custom personal residence. Being sold as-is. Whether you're looking to renovate and resell, hold as a rental, or make it your own, 139 Tilson Rd is an incredible investment opportunity in one of Athens' most strategic locations.
139 Tilson Rd, Athens, GA 30606 is a 3 bedroom, 2 bathroom, 1,553 sqft single-family home built in 1994. It last sold for $258,000 on Sep 5, 2025 (3% above the $250,000 asking price). It is currently off market. The Trulia Estimate is $258,900, with a rent estimate of $1,922/month.

    "Very safe and kinda friendly but most folks do keep to themselves or interact with their own family. There is only a very light traffic of homeowners in my subdivision but unfortunately there are no sidewalks or play areas for the kids. Folks walk their dogs in the street. Children play in their own front or back yards it seems. You rarely see or hear them out and they won’t recognize you as a neighbor. This is unfortunate but typical of neighborhoods in this area and in the South."

    "More and more people are living here but the roads are staying the same size since the past 30 years. Traffic can be horrible going to work in the morning, and getting off work, from 4pm to 6pm, forget going anywhere. Depending what part of Athens you’re in, will effect your view on Athens. There’s a poor lifestyle and there’s a wealthy lifestyle to this town. Slowly Athens is updating its lifestyle to fit wealthy families. It sure is a college town, and traffic is much better once the college students are out of town. I’ve lived here my whole life so I know where to go and where not to go. I’ve seen girls/college girls out walking in places they shouldn’t have been walking (out of town ppl don’t know any better) but they think since it’s a college town it’s ok, and that’s where they’re wrong. Overall nice town but way too crowded. "

Would not recommend raising your children here. Also the public schools are terrible."
