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.
