Ardsley Park has stayed one of Savannah's most desirable neighborhoods for more than a century, and the reasons are easy to see.
The first thing people notice is the streets. Ardsley Park was developed in the early 20th century, roughly 1910 to 1940, as Savannah's first streetcar and garden suburb, and it is on the National Register of Historic Districts. Wide, oak-lined boulevards with landscaped median parks run through the heart of it, framing large lots and grand historic homes.
Then there is the architecture. You will find Colonial Revival, Tudor, and Craftsman homes side by side, a mix of beautifully restored properties and some with real renovation potential. Prices run among the higher in-town Savannah neighborhoods: restored historic homes commonly range from roughly the mid $400,000s into seven figures, with more accessible options that need work, so ask ARC for today's numbers on a specific block.
Location and community seal it. Ardsley Park sits in Midtown, just south of Forsyth Park and close to Daffin Park, walkable to the shops and restaurants of Habersham Village, and a few minutes from downtown. A strong community identity and many long-term residents give it a settled, neighborly feel that is hard to find anywhere else in the city.

Thinking about a move to Ardsley Park? Let's map out your options.
Ardsley Park is one connected historic district rather than a set of separate subdivisions, so it helps to think in streets and pockets. A few of the most asked-about:
The median-park streets
The landscaped boulevards, like Washington Avenue and Hull Street, are the postcard heart of Ardsley Park, with grassy medians, mature oaks, and some of the grandest homes. Expect premium pricing on these prime blocks.
Chatham Crescent
An adjacent crescent-plan historic enclave with curving, tree-lined streets and large period homes. It carries the same early-1900s character as Ardsley and is often shopped together with it.
Near Habersham Village
Homes within easy walking distance of the Habersham Village shops and restaurants, a favorite for buyers who want to leave the car at home for coffee, dinner, and errands.
Near Daffin Park
Streets close to Daffin Park put a large public park, walking paths, and ball fields at your doorstep, a strong draw for families and anyone who wants green space nearby.
Restored vs. renovation projects
The district mixes turnkey, fully restored historic homes with properties that need work. Knowing which you want, and what a sensible renovation looks like here, changes the search a lot.
Larger estate homes
Some of the prime blocks hold larger estate-scale historic homes on generous lots. These are the high end of Ardsley Park and move quickly when they are well restored.
