Georgetown Georgia | Lifestyle and Community, Homes and Real Estate
Georgetown is located in Chatham County Georgia and is considered a census designated place or CDP. It has 12,000 residents and sits across the Forest River from Savannah. Considered a suburban bedroom community of Savannah, there are a lot of downtown employees residing in this community.
Georgetown is easily accessible along Abercorn Street just west of the Southside neighborhood and at the end of the Veterans Parkway or Interstate 516. You can reach Georgetown by I-95 or state route 17 from downtown. It’s on the border of the Coastal Georgia Botanical Gardens at the historic bamboo Farm, which is a beautiful 51-acre site serving the entire coastal Empire and South Carolina low country with stunning water features, thousands of bamboo forests, and beautiful gardens.
Georgetown services to schools: the Georgetown elementary and the Southwest Chatham Middle School. Those in high school attend the Windsor Forest High School located in Savannah.
Most of the homes in Georgetown were constructed between the 1970s and 1980s, but newer subdivisions are popping up each year. Property prices in Georgetown run the gamut from a $150,000 single detached homes and town houses to over $1.4 million estates right on the river. Beautiful subdivisions along Grayson Avenue start at about $190,000 for three and four bedroom units built within the last 5 to 10 years. These brick homes offer one or two level layouts with two car garages and larger lots.
Georgetown also offers some beautiful historical homes with generous layouts of four and five bedrooms such as those at Windsor on the Marsh for around $600,000. Beautiful estate homes on larger acreage started about $700,000 and yet you can always find a small, 1000 square-foot home that provides two or three bedrooms perfect for first-time homebuyers for around $120,000.
You can see that the variety is endless and this is a great location for those looking for a slower pace of life but still easily connected to downtown Savannah and surrounding communities.
