Eastside offers historic homes near Savannah's core
As its name suggests, Eastside sits just east of Historic Savannah, offering a similar lifestyle at a lower price point than what you'll find just a few blocks west. The community’s mix of stately homes and simple cottages reflects its origins as a streetcar suburb, where wealthier residents and working families settled along the same transit corridors. Today, Eastside continues to draw those seeking easy access to Savannah's iconic squares, restaurants and riverfront, with several bus stops and major thoroughfares nearby.
New construction homes are popping up throughout Eastside.
Eastside has a central Savannah location close to downtown.

Eastside housing: older homes and new infill
Developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries, Eastside features an eclectic collection of historic homes, from stately Queen Annes to modest workers’ cottages, with some newer infill construction. “It's a lot of older homes, with a lot of renovation going on,” says Wynn Martin, a Realtor with Eighteen O’Two Realty and a longtime Savannah resident. “If they can save the older homes, they try to do that. If not, they will tear down and build new construction.”
You can find a small house that needs work for under $100,000, but most single-family homes range from the mid-$200,000s to the mid-$500,000s, depending on size, age and condition. Large Victorian homes often start in the low $800,000s and can reach $1.1 million. “There’s a nice mix of opportunities for different buyers in the neighborhood because it spans all kinds of price points,” Martin says. “You can find a home for hundreds-of-thousands less than just west.” For reference, the median single-family home sale price in Historic Savannah is more than $1.1 million, while Eastside’s is in the low $400,000s.
Eastside's homes have character.
You'll find modest cottages throughout Eastside.
