Why Windsor Forest works for practical buyers
Windsor Forest is one of Savannah's southernmost neighborhoods, located between the Little Ogeechee and Vernon rivers. About 12 miles from Historic Savannah, the established community offers more affordable home prices than areas closer to downtown, with manicured pocket parks scattered throughout. Major thoroughfares and commercial corridors are nearby, so errands and commutes are quick. Plus, two public schools and Savannah Country Day School, the city’s top private option, are in the neighborhood.
Windsor Forest is a scenic neighborhood.
Residential streets throughout Windsor Forest are shaded by large oak trees.

Housing styles and price ranges in Windsor Forest
Homes in Windsor Forest sit on wide, tree-lined streets that are walkable. In this shady suburb, live oaks, magnolias and palmettos grow in lawns with tidy landscaping. There’s a range of housing options here, and this is what prices can look like:
Minimal Traditional, Cape Cod or ranch-style homes often range in price from the low $100,000s to the high $400,000s.
Two-story houses, usually Colonial Revival and New Traditional styles, typically start in the low $400,000s and can reach $1.3 million for luxury, riverfront properties with private docks.
Most single-family homes fall within the $300,000 to $600,000 range.
Townhouses can cost from the high $100,000s to the high $500,000s.
Condos usually run from the low $100,00s to the mid-$200,0000s.
“The homes are older, built mostly from the ‘70s to ‘90s, and a little bit more affordable,” says Scott Dole, a real estate agent with Compass Georgia and a longtime Savannah resident. “They’re well-built homes that are more affordable for Savannah—pricing is more consistent with Pooler."
Located in Windsor Forest, this beautifully renovated brick ranch-style home offers timeless appeal and contemporary comfort.

Residents can head to the local Publix for their grocery and pharmacy needs.
Close to shopping, dining and downtown
There’s easy access to the Abercorn Street retail corridor, with grocery stores, pharmacies and big-box chains, as well as other southside shopping plazas. Within roughly 5 miles, you can reach:
Oglethorpe Mall, an indoor shopping center anchored by Belk, JCPenney and Macy’s
Abercorn Commons, an open-air plaza featuring stores like Ulta Beauty, Michaels and HomeGoods
Sandfly, a near-coastal community known for its dining scene, with local restaurants like Driftaway Café, Castaways and Sandfly Barbeque
“With Abercorn and the Truman Parkway right there, there’s a lot of shopping all around you,” Dole explains. “Plus, it’s only about 20 minutes to get downtown.”
How Windsor Forest residents spend their free time
Windsor Forest offers lots of things to do. Pocket parks with playgrounds and green spaces are scattered throughout the community, and larger outdoor areas are close, too. At Joseph J. Tribble Park, you’ll find a pond for fishing, a playground and a dog park. Golfers can hit the links at LaVida Country Club, with nine holes that you can play as 18. The club is open to the public. Over at Windsor Forest Center, you can take any of a variety of classes, ranging from fitness to crafts. If you’re feeling a little more rugged and want to get out in nature, header over to Cedar Grove Park to hike the wooded trails or launch a boat at Coffee Bluff Marina to head out on the Little Ogeechee River.
The city also plans to build a second community center in the neighborhood, with completion expected in late 2027. Windsor Forest is also near some of the city’s most popular outdoor spaces, including Daffin Park in the Parkside neighborhood, Lake Mayer Park in the Highland Park neighborhood and Forsyth Park in Historic Savannah.
Younger residents love to play at the playground at Joseph Tribble Park.

Public, private and higher education options
The highly rated Savannah-Chatham County Public School System serves Windsor Forest. The district offers magnet-style choice programs to which students can apply. Admission is mostly lottery-based, but some arts programs require auditions. Two public schools are in the neighborhood: Windsor Forest Elementary School and Windsor Forest High School. So is one of Savannah’s many private options, Savannah Country Day School, which is widely regarded as the best in the city.
Georgia Southern University’s Armstrong Campus, which enrolls about 5,000 students, is also in Windsor Forest, though it stays largely self-contained. The school may be small, but it maintains the resources of a larger university, including labs and research programs.
Windsor Forest Elementary School's campus is surrounded by tree-lined streets.
Windsor Forest High School is within walking distance for some Windsor Forest residents.

Getting around from Windsor Forest
Abercorn Street, a major city thoroughfare with bus stops, runs through the neighborhood and connects with Harry S. Truman Parkway, the main route to Historic Savannah, about 15 to 20 minutes away. Tybee Island is about 40 minutes east. In case of emergency, St. Joseph’s Hospital is just north in the Wilshire Estates neighborhood. And when it’s time to fly, Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport is about 30 minutes away.
What to know about flood risk in Windsor Forest
Because Windsor Forest is a low-lying community between two rivers, flooding can be a concern. Parts of the neighborhood, mostly those nearest the water, fall within FEMA-designated flood zones, specifically Zone AE, which is high risk. Federally backed mortgages in these areas will require flood insurance, and major renovation projects may need approval from the City of Savannah and Chatham County.

Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.
