About Farmer's Exchange Athens
**You must be a student to rent at this property** Historic Downtown Lofts: At the bustling intersection of Broad and Oconee streets, Farmer’s Exchange is your gateway to campus and downtown Athens life & style! These spacious, luxury lofts are unlike any other in the downtown area offering unique floor plans from 1 to 6 bedrooms. Floor Plans: Each floor plan at Farmer’s Exchange is one-of-a-kind. One of Farmer’s 1 to 6 bedroom floor plans will fit your budget and group size. If you don't have roommates, no problem! We will find a space for you. A Downtown Athens Landmark c.1897: Rich in tradition, Farmer’s Exchange is one of the most desired options for downtown student living. Conveniently located in vibrant downtown Athens, Farmer’s Exchange is just steps away from UGA Campus and all the Classic City has to offer. Historic Student Lofts: Farmer’s Exchange was constructed in 1897 by Billups Phinizy, a prominent local Athenian who took part in the construction of Clarke County’s courthouse as well as The Georgian Hotel. A grocer occupied the first floor and there were offices on the second. The rear section of the building was used as a cotton warehouse. Second story additions were added later, and Farmer’s Hardware moved into the building in 1972. In 1997, Farmer’s Hardware was beautifully renovated into loft apartments with a rustic feel of exposed beam and brick. Farmer’s Exchange provides uniqueness and individuality that other downtown lofts simply can’t offer!
Farmer's Exchange Athens is located in the Downtown Athens Neighborhood and 30601 Zip code of Athens, GA.
