    What's special

    Spacious private balconyTop-floor corner residence
    The Ultimate Georgia Bulldog Penthouse at The Overlook on Baxter ~ in the Heart of Athens. Welcome to a truly rare offering—this top-floor corner residence delivers what few properties in Athens, GA ever can: unrivaled, direct views into Sanford Stadium. The closest vantage point outside the stadium itself. Perched above it all, this 2-bedroom, 2-bath + bonus bunk room retreat spans approximately 1,510 square feet of sophisticated, modern design. Floor-to-ceiling windows on two sides flood the space with natural light while framing iconic vistas—looking across the University of Georgia campus toward Dooley Field at Sanford Stadium. Step outside to a spacious private balcony—your front-row seat to the energy of Athens. Whether it’s game day, sunset, or a quiet morning coffee, the experience is nothing short of extraordinary. Inside, the residence blends contemporary edge with upscale comfort: Sealed concrete floors for a sleek, modern aesthetic with soaring ceilings and exposed beams add volume and architectural interest. Designer furnishings throughout, curated for both style and livability. A striking kitchen open to a grand living space ideal for entertaining. Both bedrooms can accommodate king size beds with windows for natural light. The primary bedroom has French doors leading to balcony. Both bathrooms are beautifully appointed with glass-enclosed showers, oversized hex tile flooring, and marble-topped vanities—offering a refined, spa-like feel. Offered fully furnished, this residence is completely turnkey—including all furniture, appliances, electronics, and housewares—allowing for immediate enjoyment. (Select artwork and personal items excluded.) Location is everything—and this one is unmatched: Just 312 feet to the University of Georgia campus, a short walk to Sanford Stadium, steps from Athens’ restaurants, fitness studios, and daily conveniences, minutes to Milledge Avenue and the heart of downtown. This is more than a condo—it’s a front-row lifestyle experience in one of the most coveted locations in Athens. Opportunities like this are exceptionally rare.
