Close to the foothills with many local events
In Pickens, locals enjoy the quiet, slow-paced atmosphere near the foothills of the Blue Ridge Mountains. "It has that laid-back, small-town feel," says Missy Rick, Realtor with Allen Tate Realtors, who has serviced Pickens for more than 20 years. "It's a beautiful area in the country with walking trails while close to the amenities that everybody wants." Main Street, a walkable one-mile strip with local businesses, can be found in the heart of Pickens, where annual community events are held.

Highlighting azaleas and other annual festivals
The Pickens Azalea Festival is one of the most anticipated annual events. The two-day event closes Main Street on the last weekend in April when the azaleas are blooming, featuring an antique car cruise, vendors, live music and more. "It's like a street carnival without all the rides," says Rick. "There's always a big turnout, and it's nice how the whole community comes together like one big family reunion." The Azalea Festival is just one of many events held throughout the year, along with music festivals and holiday parades.
Suburban living close to main street, rural living in the country
Locals who live within 2.5 miles of Main Street find themselves in a leafy, suburban setting. Bungalows and ranch-style homes from the mid-1900s are the most common in this area, ranging from $250,000 to $400,000. They're fixed on quarter-to-half-acre lots close enough to each other to greet neighbors. Further away into the countryside, single-family homes become sparse, resting on acres of open and woodsy land. A three-to-four-bedroom home on one to two acres sells for around $450,000 to $550,000, while a similar home on 25 acres can reach $1 to $1.3 million.
