Bath-Edie
Rural Neighborhood in Augusta, Georgia
Richmond County 30805, 30815
Ranches and mobile homes on wide grass lots
Driving down Deans Bridge, it can be easy to miss Bath-Edie. With much of the land undeveloped and hidden by numerous tall, skinny trees, it looks like a rural area. While the population doesn’t rival a booming city, people still call it home. Navigating through the woods on tight roads, a handful of ranch-style properties and mobile homes are on a couple of acres of land. Buyers can purchase almost an acre of land with no home for $35,000, while a two-bedroom ranch will hit the market at the average home price of $138,000. “Across Augusta, individual properties drive the market. If listings are move-in, they go quickly. However, in Bath-Edie, there is much land for sale, and people have been buying it to build their own houses,” Kineman says.

The community center is a city cooling/heating shelter and an EMA Designated Emergency Shelter. Anglers can visit Ellis Pond, a reservoir in the north portion of the community.

Going to school in the Richmond County School System

The zoned path for students is Blythe Elementary, Hephzibah Middle and Hephzibah High School. The elementary school scores a C-plus, while the middle and high school grades as C-minus. Hephzibah High has offered an International Baccalaureate Middle Years Programme since the 2019-20 school year.

Bath Gardens is a popular green space
While many of the resorts that were vacation destinations were either burned or torn down, many during the Great Depression, there still is a chance to get a feel for what that era was like. Bath Gardens was opened in 1960, and after closing in 2019 for renovations, it reopened for good in 2021. Today, it is a public garden and outdoor nature center with multiple European Gardens surrounding a spring and a few historic houses. The gardens host numerous events throughout the year, including Oktoberfest, Family Fun Day and a holiday event, and is available for private rental, including weddings.
Hop on Route 1
The city operates Augusta Public Transit, but it does not make it out to Bath-Edie. However, the community is right on U.S. Route 1, which runs from Maine to the Florida Keys. Known as Deans Bridge Road in the city, it runs straight into downtown Augusta.Head out on GA-88 for groceries and dining
Serving locals since 1948, Mack’s Kuntry Store is a convenience store that has it all. It is the perfect place for a quick pit stop, from grabable snacks to made-to-order food. A bit further east on GA-88, residents can find a KJ’s market for a more traditional grocery store or pocketbook-friendly Family Dollar.
