Why Augusta homebuyers choose Forest Hills
Like so much of Augusta, the Forest Hills neighborhood grew around a golf course of the same name. In the 1920s, a Donald Ross-designed course and surrounding residential lots were marketed to residents of Downtown Augusta seeking a quieter place to call home. Today, many of the neighborhood’s original Colonial and Tudor revivals still stand. Streets are wide, mature trees shade tidy yards and golf carts drive down Pine Needle Road. At the same time, Forest Hills also offers easy access to major shopping and dining corridors, with short commutes to some of the city’s top employers.
Historic homes line the streets of Forest Hills.

Homes in Forest Hill work for a range of budgets
In Forest Hills, no two homes look the same. “People like the historic appeal of the homes,” says Jaime Powell, a real estate agent with Keller Williams Realty Augusta who has sold houses throughout the neighborhood. “Forest Hills is eclectic and has a wider range of houses. There are no cookie-cutter houses.” One-story cottages and ranch-style homes can range in price from the low $200,000s to the high $400,000s, while Colonial and Tudor revivals from the early to mid-20th century often cost between the mid-$400,000s and the high $700,000s. “Many historic houses are pushing 100 years, but they’re well-maintained,” Powell says. Townhouses are also available in the southern part of the community, ranging from the high $100,000s to the low $200,000s.
What to know about nearby public and private schools
The Richmond County School System serves the neighborhood. Richmond County offers school choice through four competitive magnet schools, with admission based on grades, attendance, conduct and district-administered testing. Families can also apply to specialized programs, including cybersecurity, fine arts, IB and skilled trades, as well as in-district transfers, which depend on available seats. Many Forest Hills students attend private schools, including Westminster School of Augusta, a highly rated Christian school that educates students from prekindergarten through 12th grade and is located just outside the neighborhood in West Augusta.
Things to do in and around Forest Hills
The neighborhood’s Forest Hills Golf Club, featuring a public 18-hole course designed by Donald Ross, is known for being one of the more affordable clubs in the area. Just south, in the Highland Park neighborhood, Augusta Municipal Golf Course, which locals call The Patch, is private and offers The Loop, a 9-hole short course designed by Tiger Woods’ TGR Design, as well as an 18-hole course. Pendleton King Park, about 3 miles east in the Pendleton King neighborhood, is a family-friendly bird sanctuary that also features a disc golf course, dog park, tennis courts, playgrounds and nature trails. “Across the river in North Augusta, there are a ton of cute parks and playgrounds, just a 10-minute drive away,” Powell adds.
Augusta University’s golf teams call the Forest Hills Golf Club their home course.
Forest Hills Golf Club is a major neighborhood attraction.
