Wonderful opportunity to own a historic antebellum Savannah grey brick commercial building in City Market circa 1852! Take part in Savannah’s revitalized Decker Ward with potential for retail, office, and residential uses. The first floor is currently a boutique shop and there is a full basement below. The whole building with the addition of an elevator would make a terrific restaurant. The top and middle floors are currently office space and would also make an amazing residential loft. The entire building was fully renovated in the 1980s and the two office levels only need minor updating for that use – this was a first class renovation. The Ellis Square project, one half block away includes over 1100 underground parking spaces that opened for public use in November, 2008 will include a beautiful restored square, and has begun to have as big an impact on Downtown Savannah as the restoration of Post Office Square did in Boston in the early 1990s! This truly is a once in a life time opportunity to get into the central downtown Savannah Real Estate Market. Call Ron for more information on this outstanding opportunity! $1.2 Million

With a history dating back to the founding of the Georgia colony, The George Wymberly Jones Derenne Building is for sale for the first time in almost 30 years. Originally built in 1893, it is presently used as the nightclub Club One, a thriving establishment which is famous for it's relationship and regular hosting of Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil star and central movie character The Lady Chablis. 

This property has many possibilities. It would make an excellent location on the street level for a National and is particularly attractive because of the over 60' x 90' footprint, totaling over 5,400 square feet per floor, which is rare in the downtown Savannah Real Estate Market. On the top floor is an incredible mezzanine space and clearstory with over 2800 square feet of outdoor deck space overlooking the Savannah River with views of the bridge and the city skyline.

This is an exciting opportunity in Savannah’s Landmark Historic District which is on the cusp of achieving a new world stature. Savannah has already received much recognition from many different sources for its urban livability and is also leading the southeast coast with its strong business climate. Tourism is bounding and the Savannah College of Art and Design has lent sophistication and internationality here due to its upscale savvy degree programs and a responding student body which hails from over 50 countries.

Only one block away is one of the most fascinating aspects of the rebirth of Savannah, particularly Savannah’s business district, and that is the Ellis Square project which is under construction and is projected to provide over 1,000 underground parking spaces with a crown on top of a beautiful green newly designed Ellis Square park along with new hotel space, retail, office and upscale residential.
