What to know about homebuying in Sackville
In Sackville, you’ll mostly find small, single-story homes dating from the 1940s through the ’60s, with limited new construction since 2020. Housing conditions vary, from homes that need to be completely gutted to those that have been recently flipped. Depending on size, age and condition, prices generally fall between the high $100,000s and the high $200,000s, making Sackville significantly more affordable than surrounding Midtown neighborhoods like Ardmore-Gould Estates-Olin Heights and Ardsley Park-Chatham Crescent. “If I were an investor, I would definitely buy a house in this area,” says Robert Edwards, owner of Frontline Construction and a lifelong Savannah resident. “Those houses are well-built.”
