Suburban comfort mixed with costal vibes
Talahi is an Ojibwa word meaning “among the oaks,” and this neighborhood truly lives up to that moniker. Tall, mature live oak trees line the streets, dripping Spanish moss and creating a canopy of shade around the midcentury-era homes, similar to many of Savannah's other traditional suburban neighborhoods. But among the oaks are palm trees, which hint at the neighborhood’s coastal vibe. Surrounded by Turner Creek, Bull River, and Wilmington Island, this community provides its residents easy access to the water, Georgia's picturesque coastal landscape, and the benefits of suburban living: big yards, roomy single-family homes, and quiet streets.
A mix of home styles
Ranch-style homes with clapboard siding or brick exteriors sit along winding roads hemmed with palm trees and pines. Larger New Traditional homes with Neoclassical stylings, such as columns and pillars, built in the early 2000s, split-level options and newer Craftsman-inspired designs are also available. Along the neighborhood’s edge, larger homes sit squarely on spacious estates secluded behind security gates and long driveways. Most homes feature private docks that lead directly to either Turner Creek or Bull River, and many homes concentrated along the community's inner section offer private docks that lead to one of the many lakes dotting the island. Lot sizes are roomy, with landscaped front yards and water views in backyards. Sidewalks are scarce on the residential streets, but the wide roadways give residents space to take walks or ride bikes. Prices range from $375,000 for 1,600 square feet to $1.9 million for 4,200 square feet.
