INCREDIBLE VALUE IN AN IN-TOWN ATHENS LOCATION! Tucked beneath mature trees just minutes from Five Points, Beechwood Shopping Center, Piedmont Athens Regional, and the University of Georgia, 550 Fortson Road offers nearly 2,900 square feet of living space, 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, and a level of privacy that is increasingly hard to find this close to town.
