About this home
Calling all Georgia fans, savvy investors, short term rental hosts and discerning homebuyers seeking an exceptional opportunity in the beating heart of Downtown Athens! Welcome to your ultimate "Bulldawg Kingdom." Perfectly situated just steps from UGA's iconic North Campus, the historic Arches, and Sanford Stadium, this updated 2-bedroom, 1.5-bathroom fee-simple townhouse offers an enviable lifestyle where gameday parking hassles are a thing of the past. Simply walk right out your front door down College Avenue and straight into campus! Unlike typical condominium developments, this true fee-simple townhouse (zoned RM-2, not single family) means you own the land with no condo restrictions, owners can apply for commercial short term rental use and no HOA!, offering complete autonomy, a private front yard, and a spacious, fully fenced backyard with a newer privacy fence; a rare luxury in downtown living. Complete with two deeded parking spaces in the rear, this property delivers ultimate convenience whether utilized as a primary residence, lucrative rental investment, or premier weekend gameday retreat. Step through your private rear gate into a tranquil outdoor enclave. A covered back patio serves as the perfect spot for morning coffee or tailgate prepping, featuring direct access to a dedicated laundry room. Inside, the refreshed kitchen showcases newer rich wood-stained cabinetry, sleek stainless steel appliances, and updated double-pane windows equipped with clean 2" faux white blinds, which are featured throughout the entire residence. The main level boasts durable, stylish luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring and flows seamlessly from the bright dining area, which overlooks the covered porch through a large double-pane window, into a warm, spacious living room with a coat closet and easy access to the powder room. The powder room features beautifully preserved original vintage tile flooring, combining classic charm with modern updates. Upstairs, discover two generously sized, sunlit bedrooms, each outfitted with updated double-pane windows, alongside a convenient hallway linen closet. The fully updated main bath features a stylish vanity and a pristine tiled shower/tub combo. The surrounding neighborhood is experiencing unprecedented growth. Directly across your private front yard, the North Downtown Project is transforming 12 acres into a vibrant district featuring over 500 residential units, ground-floor restaurants and shops, public green spaces, and an outdoor amphitheater. Step out your back gate to the Lyndon House Arts Center, or enjoy Lay Park's public pool, tennis courts, and indoor gym next door. Nearby construction on Hub Athens Dougherty will add another 16,000 sq ft of retail and a public plaza. Move-in ready with unmatched privacy and location, schedule your private showing today and claim your piece of Athens!...
