A once-in-a-generation offering where legacy, architecture, and opportunity converge. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, 570 Prince Avenue has served as the official residence of the President of the University of Georgia since 1949, when it was acquired by the University System of Georgia. Over more than 70 years, this distinguished estate has hosted prominent guests and landmark gatherings that have shaped both the university and the city of Athens, Georgia. Constructed in the 1850s and set on approximately five acres along one of Athens’ most iconic, tree-lined corridors, the estate offers roughly 9,000 square feet of reception and living space. Meticulously maintained and thoughtfully updated, original architectural details, gracious entertaining rooms, formal gardens, and a sweeping wraparound porch define the property’s timeless character. The University System of Georgia has reintroduced the property to the market following a prior contract that was ultimately terminated when local planning approvals were not secured, creating an opportunity for a visionary buyer to steward a piece of Georgia history into its next chapter, while preserving its historical character and stately facade.

For Youtube Video Tour... Type in: Massive Backyard | Family Home | Mother in Law Suite | Outdoor Shop | Athens, GA *** First off, this is running/biking distance to the University of Georgia. Secondly, the home is a 4 sided brick ranch on a basement sitting on more than 4 acres with a massive back yard and outdoor shop. Those two sentences are more than enough to get you to come check this home out... even if you couldn't see the photos. The best part is that there are more amenities that make this home a no-brainer. The first floor is bigger than you think with a large formal dining room, sitting room, cozy den with bookshelves and brick fire place, a 4 season room with lots of windows, 3 secondary bedrooms with 2 bathrooms, and then an oversized master suite. The master suite has built in shelving for an office or extra storage. There is his/hers closets and bathroom vanities. The walk in shower is deceptively large and the soaking tub gets sun rays like no other home. The chair lift takes you down to the basement that is currently decorated as a Bulldog game room, or man-cave. There is another brick fire place with a bar area, pool table, bedroom, and bathroom. This whole space could easily be converted into a mother-in-law suite or some extra income. Past the basement bathroom, you will come across an unfinished portion of the basement that can be used for storage or as a work shop. There is even an additional overhead door so you can store larger equipment. The outside of the home has an unforgettable backyard, a large shop, and two very long driveways. The land has some wooded parts for privacy and cleared spots for memories with family.

Set on 5.5 private acres in Crystal Hills, one of Oconee County's most established and sought-after acreage communities, 1611 Crystal Hills Drive offers something increasingly rare — genuine privacy, a stunning natural setting, and an Athens address with Oconee County convenience. A circular driveway approaches the home through a gently rolling, tree-lined lot with the kind of mature natural landscaping that takes decades to establish. The setting alone is worth the visit. The home's classic traditional design features formal living and dining rooms, a spacious family room with wood ceiling detail and custom built-ins, and large windows throughout that frame the surrounding property. A screened porch extends the living space outdoors, perfectly positioned to enjoy the privacy and natural beauty of the lot. The two-car garage and unfinished basement provide excellent storage and long-term flexibility. The layout is generous and well-considered — a strong foundation for a buyer ready to bring their own vision to the interiors and make this exceptional property entirely their own. For buyers searching for acreage homes in Oconee County, large lot properties near Athens GA, or private estate-style homes with an Athens address, Crystal Hills is one of very few communities that delivers on all three. Convenient to Athens, Watkinsville, and the broader Oconee County corridor. A rare setting. An established neighborhood. An opportunity to create something truly personal.

Welcome to lot 9 of Ansel Acres - a rare opportunity to own 40.99 acres of beautiful North Georgia land in Jackson County offering an exceptional blend of open pasture, water frontage and natural landscape. The property is located just 15 minutes from the University of Georgia and Downtown Athens, with quick access to Highways 129 and 441 and less than 20 minutes to Interstate 85. From the moment you arrive, the property makes an impression with its expansive setting and scenic surroundings. One of the most remarkable features of this tract is its extensive water frontage, boasting approximately 2,500 feet along the North Oconee River along with an additional 1,500 feet of creeks flowing through and alongside the property's perimeter. This combination creates not only a stunning visual backdrop but also provides a reliable water source, strong wildlife habitat, and outstanding recreational appeal. The land offers a mix of flat to gently rolling terrain, making it both functional and picturesque. Utilized for running cattle, the property is well-suited for continued agricultural use, yet equally ideal for those looking to transition the land into a private estate, family compound, or long-term investment tract. Outdoor enthusiasts will especially appreciate the strong hunting potential and natural diversity the water corridors provide. While much of the acreage enjoys the benefits of river and creek frontage, Approximately 5 acres sit outside of the floodplain, offering an ideal homesite location. A perc test has already been completed and supports a conventional septic system, giving buyers confidence as they plan their future build. County water and power are available at the road, simplifying utility access. Access is convenient with 643 feet of road frontage along New Kings Bridge Road, allowing for a private entrance and flexible layout options. As part of the highly sought-after Ansel Acres development, this tract also offers the opportunity to expand - with additional adjoining lots available for buyers seeking more acreage, a family compound layout, or increased privacy buffers. The property also benefits from its proximity to surrounding growth and amenities, including a new county park planned just down the road off of New Kings Bridge road featuring walking trails, a splash pad, soccer fields, pickleball courts, and additional recreational spaces. Demand within Ansel Acres has been strong, with 11 of the 15 lots already under contract since being listed last week, making this a limited opportunity that may not last long. With its combination of extensive river frontage, flowing creeks, buildable homesite potential, agricultural usability, recreational appeal, and expansion flexibility, this property stands out as a truly special piece of Jackson County land.
