Whitlow Creek is one of Oconee County's most established Swim and Tennis Communities and 1185 Whitlow Ridge sits at its best address - a quiet cul-de-sac on nearly nine-tenths of an acre, the largest lot currently available in the neighborhood. The floor plan is the one families keep coming back to. The primary suite anchors the main level with walk-in closets and a private en suite bath, while a half bath serves the main living areas. Engineered hardwood floors run throughout, and the Great Room opens to fireplace and flows naturally into a granite kitchen designed for everyday living and easy entertaining. Upstairs, three bedrooms and a full bath surround a bonus room that gives every family something different - a home office, media room, playroom, or a guest retreat. It is the kind of flexible space that makes house work for the long term. Step outside to a covered back porch overlooking a private backyard - a genuine outdoor living space that extends your usable square footage well beyond four walls. Whitlow Creek residents enjoy a community pool, tennis/pickle ball courts, a pavilion, fishing pond, walking/biking trails, and sidewalks. The neighborhood sits within the Oconee County School District, consistently recognized as one of Georgia's highest performing and most sought after systems - a major reason families choose this community and stay.
