Neighborhood in Augusta, Georgia

Old ranch styles and new construction
Goshen allows potential homebuyers to pick between older homes or new construction properties. The original home inventory is a mix of brick ranch styles and split levels along winding neighborhood streets. Property lots are compact but feature driveways to avoid street parking. New construction developments continue to pop up, and those homes range from townhouses to ranches and new traditional Colonial Revivals. Prices range from $135,000 to $336,000, but buyers can expect a new construction three-bedroom townhouse to sell for about $200,000, while a three-bedroom ranch-style will sell for around $220,000. “The market right now is all about the individual properties. I have had listings for renovated houses move-in days, while a house that needs more money put into them will sit longer,” Kineman says.

Goshen Plantation Golf Club and nearby parks
Home to the Master’s each April, golf is a beloved leisure activity in Augusta. Goshen Plantation Golf Club is an 18-hole course practically in the resident’s backyards. The public track spans 7,400 yards and is designed by Ellis Maples. The Phinizy Swamp Nature Park is just 6 miles away and provides multiple trails of varying lengths and difficulties for hikers to explore. The longest is the pond trail, which stretches almost 2 miles, but most of the other paths are less than a mile long and allow visitors to see some of the swamp's wildlife, including alligators.
