Why I think Ardsley Park is one of the best neighborhoods in Savannah Ga

Diversity is the number one reason. Everything about Ardsley Park is diverse, the residents, the styles, the size of homes, the prices, the condition of the homes -- just about anyone can find something they like in Ardsley Park.

With building starting in the late 30s and ending in the early 60s, the styles range from neo-Georgian to ranch. I've seen a couple of Prairie styles made popular by Frank Lloyd Wright and utilized mainly in the west.

Prices are rising to exclude many first time buyers who are looking for a price below $200,000, but every once in a while you can even find a home that needs some work under $200,000.

The location is excellent because it's consiered mid-town and it is in the middle of everything -- easy to get downtown, to the southside and to the beach.

I've listed all these reasons before, but the main attraction for me is something subjective -- the feel. Most of you will know what I mean by "feel" -- the sensations an environment creates: cozy, homey, peaceful, etc.

The eclectic nature of Ardsly Park homes and the surroundings create a feeling of "something different" -- and there is also a feeling of being transported back in time a bit. Not back in time in a negative, out-of-touch way but a feeling of something older that meshes with the present.
