Southside Homes for Rent

Southside in Augusta, located 10 miles west of downtown via Interstate 520, is known for its affordable housing options, making it ideal for first-time home buyers and investors. The neighborhood features Colonial Revival and brick ranch homes from the 1960s to the 1980s, typically offering 1,200 to 1,800 square feet of living space on lots of at least a quarter-acre. The mature pine and maple trees add to the appeal, providing ample space for outdoor activities and relaxation. The area is characterized by its larger lots compared to newer construction communities, which often have smaller lots and fewer trees. Local amenities include big-box stores like Lowes and KJ’s Market on Peach Orchard Road, along with dining options such as Veracruz for Mexican cuisine and Catz Kitchen for wings. Chain restaurants like Starbucks, KFC, and Applebee’s are also readily available. For recreation, Butler Creek Park and Apple Valley Park offer basketball courts, playgrounds, and walking tracks. The world-famous Augusta National Golf Club, home of the Masters Tournament, is less than 15 miles away, presenting lucrative rental opportunities during the event.
