Tucked away in Savannah’s picturesque Islands area, this charming 1,450 sq. ft., 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom cottage feels like it’s been lifted straight from the pages of a Nicholas Sparks novel. On the market for the first time in 70 years, this home is a rare treasure, where original hardwood floors whisper stories of the past and the primary bedroom offers a front-row seat to breathtaking creek and marsh views. As the sun dips below the horizon, step onto your private dock on Richardson Creek and enjoy the many sunsets to come. Whether you’re savoring the serenity of the coastal breeze or dreaming of your next adventure, this home is the perfect setting for your next chapter. This home is situated on a large lot and is ready for any additions or a pool looking over then river. Just 10 minutes from Historic Downtown Savannah and 15 minutes from the beaches of Tybee Island, this is more than a home—it’s a lifestyle waiting to be lived. Your story begins when you arrive.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
