Heart of Downtown Athens | One of the Best U.S. College Towns | Turn-Key Ready In-Line Space

  • The Property consists of a 2,970 sq ft in-line space in downtown Athens, directly adjacent to the entrance to the University of Georgia campus. Due to this proximity, downtown Athens is consistently ranked as one of the best college towns in America.
