For many, Athens, Georgia, is most known for being the home of the Georgia Bulldogs at the University of Georgia. However, the city offers an abundance of activities that make it the perfect place to build your custom and luxury home. From sports fans and music enthusiasts to nature lovers, Athens is a great place to call home.
With music venues such as the Georgia Theatre and 50 Watt Club in addition to being the host city for the annual Athfest, it’s not any surprise that the New York Times calls Athens the “Live Music Central.” Bands from nearly every genre have hosted concerts in Athens for college parties or special events. Widespread Panic, Indigo Girls, Corey Smith, R.E.M., Danger Mouse and Drive-By Truckers, just to name a few, have all made their mark on Athens.
The nightlife in Athens offers a variety of restaurants that will please any taste pallet. From coffee shops and lounges to tapas bars and multiple award-winning restaurants, including honors from the James Beard Foundation, Food & Wine Magazine and Georgia Trend Magazine, Athens is certainly a place for foodies and casual diners alike.
