Waterfront Augusta neighborhood near downtown
On the shores of the Savannah River, West End provides potential homebuyers the chance to purchase a home near some of the most exciting happenings in the city. The neighborhood borders Lake Olmstead, the Augusta Canal, and downtown, but it also has its own amenities, including the Salvation Army Kroc Center. “West End is by so much of the city's major amenities,” says Mary Williams, a Realtor with Century 21 Jeff Keller Realty, who has been selling Augusta for nearly two decades. “It’s right near the medical center. If needed, the city has great public transportation, and the transfer center is in the neighborhood.”
Vast selection of traditional homes
Most of the home inventory in the West End lines narrow neighborhood streets. A collection of ranch homes and bungalows adorn rectangular lots with tall trees scattered throughout backyards. However, there is a chance to purchase a Craftsman property that backs up to the Augusta Canal. Prices are usually less than $100,000 for a ranch or bungalow but can rise to around $400,000 for a waterfront property. “There is hardly any inventory in the West End, but whatever comes on the market sells. Many investors look here, but we also have a steady stream of traditional home buyers that look here as well,” Williams says.

Being active along the Savannah River
The neighborhood is home to Lake Olmstead Park, which has the frequented Lake Olmstead Trailhead, a 2.5-mile, unpaved trail once used by the mules that pulled boats along the canal. The park provides access points for boats to get on the lake. Another unique park feature is Julian Smith Casino, which, although it sounds like a gambling hall, is an event venue available for rental and hosts both public and private events with scenic overlooks of the park and the lake. The neighborhood is along the Augusta Canal Trail, nearly an 11-mile out-and-back trail.
Lake Olmstead Trailhead is a half-mile paved trail along the water on the edge of the West End.

Minutes from downtown Augusta
Closer to home, residents can shop at the Family Dollar in the Howard Shopping Center in the neighborhood. Locals can also head west on Washington Road, where they find numerous chain grocers such as Publix and Kroger. West End is a few blocks north of downtown Augusta, which offers multiple restaurants and a nightlife.
