Five Points Is A Fabulous Athens, GA Community

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Success Realty

Five Points is a fabulous Athens, Georgia community that has historically been one of the most desired neighborhoods near the University of Georgia.  Five Points is know to be a "walking community" convenient to shopping, restaurants, entertainment and historically appealing homes.

One of my personal favorites in 5 Points is Jittery Joe's Coffee (photo above) where "Each little brown bean is a labor of love".  They also win my  "Success Star Award" for "Best Adaptive Use of Real Estate".  The Five Points location is housed in a former gas station that was (in my humble opinion) an eyesore.  The building is now attractive, funky, fitting and a delight to my eyes!

The community of Five Points borders the south & southwest sides of The University of Georgia and is home to many student rentals and many single family residences.  The Friends of Five Points is a association of homeowners from the area whose mission is "... to further the safety and quality of life in the 5 Points area".
