27 Morningside Dr is the kind of white farmhouse elevation that stops traffic on a quiet Wilmington Island street, and once you're inside you realize the curb appeal was just the opening act. Built in 2020, this one skips the renovation guesswork entirely: NEW construction quality with none of the old house surprises. The main level unfolds with an OPEN living room stretching nearly 21 by 19 feet, flowing straight into a dining room and a kitchen built for real cooking: a massive island, waterfall countertops, sleek pendant lighting, and stainless appliances that mean business. A separate family room off the kitchen gives everyone their own space to spread out, and a main level bedroom with private bath is perfect for guests, in laws, or one lucky teenager. Upstairs is where this house really FLEXES. The primary suite is enormous, nearly 20 by 19 feet, with a spa style bath and a walk-in closet the size of a small bedroom. Two additional bedrooms upstairs come with their OWN private baths, so nobody's waiting in line before school. There's even a dedicated game room with a pool table, because Saturday nights just got a whole lot more fun. Outside is where this property goes from great to UNFORGETTABLE. A sparkling in-ground pool anchors the backyard, a screened porch keeps the bugs out and the breeze in, and sweeping aerial views reveal just how close you are to the Shad River and surrounding marsh. Set on a full 1.5 ACRE lot with mature oaks and a wide open lawn, this feels like a permanent vacation, not just a house. Tucked on Wilmington Island, minutes to Isle of Hope, Tybee Island, and everything Savannah has to offer, with the river and marsh practically in your backyard.

A ONCE-IN-A-GENERATION LOWCOUNTRY UNICORN. For the first time in 30 years, an impossible-to-replicate waterfront empire is officially up for grabs on Wilmington Island. This isn’t just a piece of real estate; it is a legendary 0.896-acre peninsula draped in a breathtaking canopy of ancient, moss-dripping live oaks. Offering total, uncompromised privacy, this expansive marsh and waterway frontage is entirely bounded by three iconic waterways: the mighty Savannah River to the north, the winding Wilmington River to the west and south, and the wide-open Bull River to the east. This kind of geographic rarity is a true coastal holy grail that you simply cannot buy or build today.The maritime infrastructure here is absolutely unmatched, boasting a massive 809 SF private wooden dock, a 220 FT dock house made for catching river breezes, and a 6x20 floating dock providing exceptional tidal access for your boats and skiffs. It even features a rare, solid drivable lawn corridor straight to the water's edge for effortless gear loading. While you custom-design your grand coastal masterpiece, you can live comfortably or generate premium immediate rental income in the fully renovated, 712 SF detached guest cottage. The primary 1942 traditional masonry home (2,929 SF, 3BR/3.5BA with 17 solar panels) features a fully functional upper level, while the lower level sits cleanly gutted to the framing about 3 feet up the wall following historical tidal flooding from Hurricanes Matthew and Irma—providing an absolute blank canvas to build your ultimate Southern legacy. Take in sweeping views, golden marsh sunsets, and endless river breezes from this iconic vantage point on Georgia’s historic coast. Soak in panoramic views, dolphin sightings, and pure peace. Complete with its own private deep well and dual septic tanks, this rare coastal jewel is sold strictly AS-IS. This is a trophy property for cash buyers, builders, or renovation visionaries who recognize a true "never again" opportunity!

This is a land story first, house story second. You're getting over an acre of high, usable ground on a tidal creek off the Little Ogeechee River, framed by massive live oaks dripping in Spanish moss, with your own private stretch of waterfront for fishing, kayaking, or just watching the marsh grass move. It sits in a quiet, low-key pocket of Savannah that most people driving through never even know exists — yet you're roughly 20 minutes from downtown. No HOA. No neighbors on top of you. And the property is zoned R-A, which opens the door to things a typical residential lot won't allow — think chickens, more outbuildings, a hobby farm setup, whatever fits your lifestyle. Buyers looking for room to spread out and actually use their land, take note. The home itself is a 4-bedroom, 2-bath property currently configured as a duplex (2BR/1BA on each side), and it's mid-renovation — the sellers started updates and did not finish. You're buying it as-is, with the understanding that it needs work throughout to complete the vision. That's reflected in the price, and it's exactly what makes this a rare opportunity: a blank canvas on land like this almost never comes along. Finish it as a spacious single-family home, keep the duplex setup for rental income, or reimagine it entirely. There's also a red barn, that could be converted into an apartment — finish it out for guest space or additional rental income. With two separate septic systems already in place, there's real room to expand further: a guest cottage, a second rental unit, whatever the next owner envisions. This is a project for someone who sees the water, the oaks, and the acreage and knows the house is just the starting point. Bring your contractor, bring your vision, and make it yours.
