Pre-Auction Offers Welcome for a Complete Turnkey Opportunity!
A rare Athens opportunity: 17,000± SF freestanding commercial building on 1.37± acres, most recently operating as a full-service brewery. The building is ideally located just off of Atlanta Highway (US-78) in one of Athens-Clarke County's most active retail and hospitality corridors - minutes from the Epps Bridge Centre trade area (Costco, Target, Whole Foods), the University of Georgia, downtown Athens, Loop 10, and Highway 316 access to metro Atlanta. This turnkey layout combined with being zoned "G-C," General Commercial - one of the county's most permissive commercial classifications - this building is very well suited for brewery, restaurant, event venue, food-and-beverage production, or flex commercial use.

Investment Highlights
- Flexible G-C zoning. General Commercial zoning supports a broad range of uses - brewery, restaurant, event venue, food and beverage production, retail, office, or flex commercial - giving buyers multiple paths to value without a rezoning risk.
- Irreplaceable corridor position. Freestanding buildings on the Atlanta Highway corridor rarely trade, and almost never with this level of specialty buildout.
- Owner-user or investor. Suited to an owner-user seeking a hard-to-replicate facility, or to an investor pursuing a lease-up or redevelopment play in a corridor positioned for significant reinvestment.
- Adjacent to the 75± acre Georgia Square Mall site, the subject of a proposed large-scale mixed-use redevelopment - a long-term catalyst for the immediate trade area.
