The Messtimate™
The Messtimate
This is a deliberately dumb estimate — living area times a range of recent neighborhood $/sq ft, and nothing else. It is not an appraisal, not market value, and not a valuation of this home. Even a tight range from comparable sales can’t price a specific home — here’s why.
$273,800the mess$340,400
Stronger local evidence — 6 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles, closed within the last 18 months, same property type, living area within 30% of this home.
Actual list price: $379,000 — compare it against the range above. The Messtimate is a blind sqft estimate; the list price reflects this specific home.
A 24% spread on the same house — and that gap is exactly what an automated guess can't see:
Condition & updates — a 1968 home may have had its roof, kitchen, or HVAC replaced since, or not; sq ft can't see either.
The lot & views — a premium golf, water, or preserve lot vs. a road-facing one: same sq ft, very different price.
Outliers skew it — the band above comes from 6 nearby sales; one flip or distressed sale moves the whole $/sq ft.
Carrying costs & concessions — CDD, HOA, insurance, and seller-paid buydowns change what a buyer actually pays.
And here's what the live market is doing — which the number above ignores entirely:
1 active listing competing
For reference, this home is listed at $379,000 ($205/sq ft). The list price is the seller's asking price and is not derived from this range.
Want a property-specific review from a licensed agent? A Momentum Realty agent will do a real, free comparative market analysis — walking the home, the lot, the condition, and the live market. That's the difference between a Messtimate and a valuation.
Methodology: 1,850 sq ft × $148–$184/sq ft (interquartile band of 6 comparable closed sales within about 3 miles, last 18 months; MLS closed-sale records). Estimate for general information only; not an appraisal, valuation, or offer. Updated October 13, 2026.
Momentum Research
The Momentum read
🟡 Asking $205 per square foot, about 15% above the community’s $178 median. Whitehead’s 12-month median sold price per square foot is $178. MLS facts: Georgia MLS closed sales. A per-square-foot gap is context, not an appraisal; condition, lot, and view set the final number here.
What’s unique here: one of only 1 active listings in Whitehead, no CDD assessment.

Oct 2026 · Development
Planning Commission backs 181-unit apartment project west of downtown Athens
Cardinal Group proposes 181 apartments with 425 bedrooms plus eight townhouses on the block bounded by West Broad, Finley, Reese and Pope streets. The six-story project has 211 parking spaces. The Planning Commission narrowly recommended the C-D rezoning on Oct. 1, and stream permits and historic review are still needed.
Why it matters: Would add rental inventory close to downtown, increasing housing supply and foot traffic west of the core if approved. The site is about 4 miles southeast of Whitehead.
SR 316 and Oconee Connector bridge work cuts lanes on the Connector
Archer Western is building two bridges to carry SR 316 over the Oconee Connector, with a separate bridge and ramps for Jimmy Daniell Road. The Connector dropped to one through lane per direction starting Sept. 18, and Jimmy Daniell Road closed Sept. 14 for about six months. Work at the intersections is projected to last at least through the end of 2028.
Why it matters: Expect multi-year lane restrictions on a key Athens to Oconee commuter route, followed by a grade-separated interchange. The site is about 5 miles south of Whitehead.

Frequently asked questions
How big is 285 Kings Circle and when was it built?
Per the listing record, 285 Kings Circle was built in 1968 and has 1,850 sq ft of living area, 5 bedrooms and 3.0 bathrooms. Living area and lot size come from the MLS record and should be verified against the county property appraiser.
What community is 285 Kings Circle in?
285 Kings Circle is in Whitehead in Athens, Clarke County. The comparable-sales section on this page shows recent closed sales nearby from the same MLS data.
Does 285 Kings Circle have an HOA?

How are property taxes on 285 Kings Circle estimated?
The estimate on this page (about $3,980 per year) assumes the county reassesses at the list price. Georgia counties reassess after a sale and exemptions such as homestead must be applied for by the new owner, so the seller's current bill is not a guide. Confirm with the county tax assessor.

A flood designation has not been verified for this address. Look up the parcel on FEMA's Flood Map Service Center (msc.fema.gov) and confirm with your insurer.
