An established suburb in east Athens
Homes in Cedar Creek have roots that date back to the mid-20th century – and many of its residents have been around for a few decades, too. The community started to develop in the 1960s and became a popular neighborhood for families. It’s predominantly residential but still close to several stores, restaurants and downtown Athens, which is a major reason why residents tend to stick around when they buy a house. “People have lived here for 10 to 20 years, some even more,” says Marcelo Buril, a local Realtor with Greater Athens Properties. He’s lived in the city for over 25 years. “It’s more community-oriented with a lot of families.” And familiarity among neighbors is common. “People tend to know each other and their families, so it’s tight-knit.”
Cedar Creek is an established suburb in east Athens known for its sturdy, red-brick homes.

Mid-20th century styles with classic red brick
Cedar Creek’s housing was developed between the 1960s and the ’80s. Ranch-style, colonial and split-level homes typically measure over 2,000 square feet with three to four bedrooms. They usually list between $300,000 and $450,000. Single-family homes under 2,000 square feet typically sell between $200,000 and $300,000. The community features a few townhome options on Barrington Drive, where two bedrooms list between $125,000 and $200,000. Most houses have traditional red-brick facades with colorful shutters adorning front-facing windows. Several ranch-style homes have long porches where homeowners place rocking chairs. The lots are spacious but close to neighbors – typically around a half-acre. Pine trees dominate Cedar Creek, and fallen needles and cones tend to scatter across front and backyards. Many trees scale a few dozen feet above the houses, so the streets stay shaded. “People drive slow here because there’s no sidewalk,” Buril says. “But they’re still out walking their dogs.”
Cedar Creek features a variety of architectural styles.
Cedar Creek homes are surrounded by lush greenery and wild life.
