The Albin P. Dearing House, more commonly known as the A. P. Dearing House, is located at 338 South Milledge Avenue (Tax Parcel No. 12-2-D2-A-007).

This two-story brick building in monumental Greek Revival style has a four-over-four room, central hall plan. A heroic Greek Doric peristyle dominates the facade and sides. The stuccoed-brick columns are coupled and truncated. Pilasters frame the rectangular sidelights and transom of the central doorway, which is composed of low relief Greek fretwork panels supporting simple molded capitals, a plain frieze, and a box cornice. Jack arches detail the recessed full-length windows. A three-story dormitory has been added to the rear of the building.

William Dearing, early textile industrialist and railroad businessman, became a man of wealth and status in Athens. His son, Albin Pasteur Dearing, bought this property in 1857 from the university trustees and built this imposing home the next year. His descendants occupied the house until property taxes and maintenance costs forced his granddaughter, Katherine Dearing Godwin, to sell it. In 1938 Kappa Alpha Theta Sorority purchased the property from her and altered the building to accommodate a dormitory and social use.

The A. P. Dearing House was documented by the Historic American Buildings Survey (GA-1133), is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (May 8, 1979), and has been locally designated as a Historic Landmark (January 8, 1991).
