$1,100,000
2 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 10857890 MLS
Chic, sophisticated, and completely reimagined-welcome to Suite 309 at The Georgian, one of Downtown Athens' most iconic addresses. This beautifully renovated 2-bedroom, 2-bath corner residence offers 1,031 square feet and combines the architectural character of a landmark building with a fresh, highly refined interior. Positioned on the third floor on the quieter side of the building, this desirable corner suite features windows on two sides, filling the residence with exceptional natural light and offering charming views toward North Campus and Athens. The open living and dining areas feel bright and inviting, with oversized windows, rustic dark grey flooring, fresh paint, and an upgraded lighting package creating a sophisticated, cohesive aesthetic. Completely renovated in 2020, virtually everything inside the residence was renewed. The redesigned kitchen is a standout, featuring custom inset cabinetry, a dramatic waterfall-edge Calacatta Laza quartz countertop, and JennAir professional-grade stainless steel appliances. The open layout allows the kitchen to flow seamlessly into the dining and living spaces, making the residence equally suited for entertaining or a relaxed weekend in Athens. Both bathrooms were beautifully updated with marble tile, new vanities, and Kohler VOX semi-recessed sinks. The two bedrooms feature thoughtfully designed custom closets with built-in storage and bypass barn doors, while a full-size side-by-side washer and dryer adds everyday convenience. Originally constructed in 1909 as The Georgian Hotel, the building remains one of Downtown Athens' most recognizable historic landmarks. Today, residents enjoy controlled access, an elegant lobby and club room, along with the extraordinary convenience of having South Kitchen + Bar just downstairs. And the location is difficult to match. The Georgian sits in the heart of Downtown Athens, approximately two blocks from the UGA Arch and historic North Campus, with Sanford Stadium, the Georgia Theatre, 40 Watt Club, restaurants, boutiques, galleries, and the energy of downtown all within easy reach. Suite 309 offers a rare combination of character, style, natural light, and location-an exceptional full-time residence, sophisticated Athens retreat, or effortless lock-and-leave home in the heart of downtown.

$409,500
3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 10857325 MLS
Not all new construction is created equal, and 220 Fairlane Drive is one you need to experience in person. Built just two years ago and exceptionally lightly lived in, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers the fresh, nearly-new feel buyers love, but with something increasingly hard to find: the character, mature surroundings, and peaceful setting of an established neighborhood. Tucked into charming Forest Hills just minutes from downtown Athens, Hwy 441, and Loop 10, the home sits on a spacious .57-acre lot with a large, private-feeling backyard and covered rear porch. From the moment you step inside, the quality and attention to detail stand apart. A wide foyer opens into a beautiful open-concept living space highlighted by vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings, warm wood details, thoughtfully selected fixtures, and abundant natural light. The kitchen is equally impressive with quartz countertops, custom cabinetry, a generous island, and breakfast area. The split-bedroom floor plan provides privacy, while the primary suite features a beautiful bath with a tiled walk-in shower. Even the functional spaces received extra attention, including custom cabinetry and built-in shelving in the spacious laundry room. And the upgrades go well beyond what you can see. Spray foam insulation, a tankless water heater, insulated garage door, and a smart garage system with built-in camera and app control add efficiency, convenience, and comfort. A chain-link fenced portion of the backyard is already in place for pets or play. If you've been comparing newer homes around Athens, don't make the mistake of assuming you've already seen what this one has to offer. The craftsmanship, finishes, setting, and overall feel simply need to be experienced in person. At $409,500, this is a remarkable opportunity to enjoy the benefits of recent construction without sacrificing the charm of an established neighborhood. Come see why 220 Fairlane Drive deserves to be at the top of your list.
