Continental Properties is excited to announce the groundbreaking of Authentix LaGrange, a garden-style residential community located in LaGrange, Georgia. Featuring 288 apartment homes with studio, one-, two-, and three-bedroom options, the community is situated on the southeast corner of South Davis Road and US 29 (Hogansville Road), less than four miles from downtown LaGrange. Authentix Apartments offers open-concept layouts, modern finishes, abundant natural light, and attentive onsite customer service and maintenance teams. Amenities include a resort-style pool, a community clubhouse with a coffee bar, an outdoor grill area, a 24-hour state-of-the-art fitness center, and a leash-free dog park with a pet spa.

With 288 apartment homes, exceptional amenities, and a variety of floor plan options, Authentix LaGrange helps to fulfill this need.”
