6 Of the Most Popular Savannah Neighborhoods

March 26, 2014 by Helen Miltiades

6 Of the Most Popular Savannah Neighborhoods

Whether you are moving to Savannah Georgia or would just like to know a little bit more about the downtown area, here are five of the most popular and fun neighborhoods around Savannah.

Central – the central Savannah area is full of historic neighborhoods and communities. There’s over 3 mi.² of older homes, unique squares, and vintage house styles. Professors, artists, designers and students all call this historic area home. The central area also borders the Victorian district, which is a preservationist’s wonderland with creative designs, gingerbread houses, and park-like neighborhoods.6 Of the Most Popular Savannah Neighborhoods

The Isle of Hope – this riverfront community is perfect for young couples, first-time homebuyers or anyone looking to have that rural, waterfront property. You’re close to the Skidaway River, and there are a variety of rentals, places to live, and a close-knit neighborhood ambience.

The Landings at Skidaway Island is also popular and along with the former location, it is located in the South and Southeast regions of Savannah.  The Landings is a gated community with over 6500 islands just 12 miles south of downtown. With the deep- water dock, six golf courses, and a variety of clubhouses with amenities, this makes an ideal location for the upscale neighbor and all of us.

Richmond Hill – Richmond Hill is found about 15 miles south of downtown Savannah and is home to soccer moms, commuters and military families stationed at nearby Fort Stewart. This city has a number of residential neighborhood communities, suburban outlets and traditional in-town neighborhoods.

Habersham Woods in Savannah–this area is a mid-20th century neighborhood filled with ranch homes, quiet streets, and less than five minutes from two major hospitals. There are a few private schools, the Memorial Stadium, and locations filled with old-growth trees and tree-lined streets with properties built from the 1950s to the 1970s.

Ardsley Park – this is Savannah’s first suburb, comprised of four and five- bedroom mansions and craftsman-style bungalows built in the 1920s. The neighborhood’s northern boundary is Victory drive, which runs east from Bull Street to Waters Avenue. It’s far enough away from the touristy downtown to provide a peaceful and residential community.

I would love to provide you with homes and real estate; listings that meet your budget and your search criteria within any of these neighborhoods or other communities surrounding Savannah Georgia.

August 1, 2013 by Helen Miltiades

Poplar Place (University Park) Downtown Savannah GA

Poplar Place, or University Park, is located in downtown Savannah just South of Lynes Parkway, West of Abercorn Street and North of Perimeter Road or Hampstead Avenue.  It’s a small community that includes the Savannah Technical College with an average listing price of around $121,000. The median sales price is $78,000 but what’s exciting is the rate of increase in this area.  Over the last month prices in University Place have jumped 17% whereas the average listing price over the last year has jumped 11%.Poplar Place (University Park) Downtown Savannah GA

This is a great location if you’d like to be just outside the major downtown area but still within a short drive or even a walk or bicycle-ride to shops, restaurants and downtown.  Just East of White Bluff Road are several industrial, commercial and retail outlets such as OfficeMax, bookstores, Starbucks and grocery markets.  The Bonefish Grill, Pier 1 Imports, LensCrafters and the Atlanta Bread Company are also located within this neighborhood.

Many people choose University Park as an ideal place to live because of the affordable home prices, quaint residential neighborhoods and literally walking distance to a variety of daily necessities. Downtown Savannah is just several blocks away as is the river, museums and entertainment of Savannah.

Poplar Place has a population of about 530 residents and covers an area of .25 mi². The median rent is about $750 which is a little higher than Savannah overall.  Other demographics include average household size which is 2.7 people and the percentage of married couples with children are little higher, at 42.5%, than are in the general vicinity of Savannah, which is only 29%.

The majority of homes in Poplar Place and University Park were built after 2005 and there are very few homes built before the 1940s. Chances are, many of these homes have either been restored or will soon be torn down for new homes to be built.

Pooler Neighborhood – Fort Argyle (Road, Place) Real Estate and Homes

The Pooler Georgia area is split up into two major neighborhoods: the Fort Argyle area and City Center. Fort Argyle is located South of Interstate 16 and West of Interstate 95 encompassing Fort Argyle Road and Fort Argyle place including John Carter Road and Little Neck Road. This is mainly residential neighborhoods and encompasses the ZIP Codes of 31419, 31302, and 31322.Fort Argyle Pooler GA

The median home price in the Fort Argyle neighborhood is about $132,000, overall a little higher than most of the neighborhoods in the state. Average rental prices are about $700 according to www.neighborhoodscout.com. Considered a suburban neighborhood of Savannah, this area is made up of medium-sized 2 to 4 bedroom homes and single detached homes or manufactured homes of 1 to 2 bedrooms. Most of the homes in the Fort Argyle neighborhood were built in the last 20 years and a small majority were built before 1980. Average home prices in Fort Argyle are between $90,000 and $175,000 and most homes are owner-occupied. Homes have appreciated at an average annual rate of about 4.46% which is great for a nation’s average.

The Fort Argyle neighborhood has a quite diverse population with several Brazilian and Dutch heritage residents. The majority of residents will typically drive to work since this neighborhood is not quite walking-friendly. The locations are spread out but yet many homes offer larger lots for some acreage.

Kids in this neighborhood attend the Chaffin County school district but most of the elementary, middle and high school campuses are more in town.
