Avondale offers access to the best of Savannah, Georgia
To Savannah locals, Avondale is known as the small eastside neighborhood with streets named after states.

Avondale offers easy access to bus routes and major roads, so you can quickly reach both areas, and one of Savannah’s largest commercial corridors sits just south, making errands a breeze.

You can find a mix of one- and two-story homes in Avondale. Many have pops of color, like bright doors, shutters and fresh coats of paint. The neighborhood includes a mix of 20th-century housing and new construction, often built to complement existing historic styles. “That’s an area that’s starting to see some redevelopment,” says Carol Anne Hazelman , a real estate agent with Keller Williams Coastal Realty who has over a decade of experience selling in Savannah. “It’s mostly relatively affordable infill construction.”
