Private Owner Lounge & Entertaining Space

Entering from Washington Street (directly across from South Bar), owners enjoy access to:

  • One shared main lounge

The Property

The Washington is an exclusive, boutique condominium offering just three private residences, each with shared access to an extraordinary owners‑only entertaining lounge. Originally constructed in 1895, the building sits in the most sought‑after location in downtown Athens—steps from the UGA Arches, the Classic Center, and the city’s best dining, nightlife, and game‑day energy.

Condos 150 and 250 are currently available for presale and will be delivered unfurnished. Both homes are in the final stages of completion, with all remaining finish work scheduled to be wrapped up within the next couple of weeks. Buyers who secure a presale now will be among the first to take ownership once the units are officially completed and released.

The Restoration

The property has undergone a meticulous, top-to-bottom restoration, including:

  • All systems brought to current code
  • New structural steel
  • Slate roof repairs
  • Updated electrical, plumbing, and HVAC
  • New fire sprinkler

Every detail has been modernized while preserving the building’s historic character.

Final Touches Underway

Condo documents have been recorded, and the developer is completing final punch-list items such as cabinet adjustments and paint. Lounge decor is being installed (the new Penley artwork is a standout), and the bar areas are being stocked in preparation for owner use.

Effortless Ownership

Owners enjoy a simple, all-inclusive annual fee covering:

  • Insurance
  • Property Taxes
  • Utilities
  • Internet
  • Maintenance

This streamlined structure makes ownership easy and predictable.

The Heart of Downtown Athens

244 East Washington sits at the very heart of downtown Athens, surrounded by the city’s most beloved landmarks, restaurants, music venues, and cultural icons. From this address, nearly everything that makes Athens special is just a short, easy walk away — The Arch, Georgia Theatre, The Classic Center, Sanford Stadium, the historic North Campus, and dozens of local favorites like Trappeze Pub, The Globe, South Kitchen + Bar, and The World Famous. Living here means stepping out your front door and immediately being part of the energy, charm, and walkable lifestyle that define Athens.
