HABERSHAM PLANTATION OF SAVANNAH

September 9, 2014 by Helen Miltiades

HABERSHAM PLANTATION OF SAVANNAH – 55+ Communities for Adults

Habersham Plantation is located south of downtown Savannah just south of Hwy 204 and Georgetown and prides itself on a peaceful and private 55 and older community for adults. Close to the river, this is a great place for those that are looking for spacious estate home sites and great recreation.

Nestled on the Grove River, Habersham Plantation is a collection of custom homebuilders with large estate style lots and homes built by the areas leading custom homebuilders. The city and the plantation in general takes great care in keeping the pristine nature of the area so that people can enjoy this environment for years to come.

Habersham Plantation offers three types of properties: Lakefront, Lakeview, or lake access. Having a lakefront home means you are right on the water. Your property borders the lake so you can get up each morning and dip your toes right in the water out in front of your home. A Lakeview home offers stunning views of the lake even if your home does not border the lake or river itself. Water access properties have easy access to the lake or river but it might be a short walk or drive. Whether you are building your home and looking for the perfect home site or looking for an existing home in this community, Habersham Plantation offers both at a variety of prices. Lodz and parcels of land started about $50,000 depending on the size. There’s larger lots of over three or 4 acres available so finding that perfect privacy is well within your reach.

Habersham Plantation is about 15 minutes up Grove Point Road to shops, restaurants, attractions and local events in downtown Savannah and Georgetown. Markets and daily necessities are also within close proximity although it is within driving distance and not a comfortable walk.

Grove Point Road dead ends about a mile south of Habersham Plantation entrance so there is very little traffic to deal with and most off-shoots of Grove Point such as Grove Point Island Rd and Shore Rd also end at the river. Several of the newer homes or existing homes range in price from $400,000 to over $1 million depending on condition and design.

If you are interested in learning more about this highly sought after community just south of Savannah, please call me anytime. I would love to personally show you around the Habersham Plantation.

This small town owes its name to a legend of a lightning strike that created a freshwater spring on the Wilmington bluff. Native Americans were the first settlers to this area. This important piece of Georgia history evolved into a shipping point for local plantation needs and was ideal for river traffic. In 1856, the town was incorporated and began its history as a processing port for the fishing community. It also is known for being a college town due to its close proximity to Savannah State University.
