Location and Traffic

The site fronts Highway 78 at Pete Dickens Road — a signalized corner with nearly 25,000 average daily trips. That’s one of the strongest traffic counts on this section of Hwy 78, which runs between Athens and Atlanta and serves as a primary east-west route for Oconee County residents and commuters.

Highway 53 is about 2 miles away. Highway 316 — which gives you direct access to Gwinnett County and metro Atlanta — is just 3 miles out. Downtown Athens and UGA are approximately 12 miles east.

Dollar General is adjacent to the site. A new Publix-anchored development at Oconee Station is underway nearby. Seven schools are within a 5-mile radius, and household incomes in the immediate area average over $195,000.

What B-2 Zoning Allows

B-2 (General Commercial) zoning in Oconee County supports a wide range of uses. Some of the most common fits for a lot like this include:

Retail and food service
Quick-serve or drive-through restaurant
Professional office or medical office
Service businesses (auto, personal care, financial)
Convenience or specialty retail

With a corner lot, high daily traffic, and sewer already in place, this site works for most commercial uses that benefit from visibility and easy access.

Why Oconee County, Why Now

Oconee County is one of the fastest-growing counties in Georgia. Strong school systems, high household incomes, and proximity to Athens and Atlanta have driven consistent residential growth for years. That growth is now translating into commercial demand along corridors like Highway 78 — which still has limited available commercial inventory compared to more developed corridors closer to Athens.

Buying now means getting ahead of that demand rather than chasing it.
