Patrick Malloy Communities’ Upper East River Reflects Sustained Demand for Riverfront Luxury Living in Savannah

Savannah has long been admired for its historic beauty, coastal charm, and enduring sense of place. But in recent years, the city has quietly emerged as one of the Southeast’s most compelling luxury residential markets—drawing buyers from Atlanta, the Northeast, and beyond who are seeking architectural character paired with modern waterfront living. At the center of that movement is  Upper East River , the last new construction riverfront community that’s redefining luxury living along Savannah’s coveted eastern corridor. A Rare Riverfront Opportunity True waterfront living in Savannah has historically been limited, making Upper East River a standout. Located along the Savannah River just minutes from the Historic Riverfront District, the community offers sweeping river views, walkable streets, and an elevated sense of privacy—without sacrificing access to the city’s culture, dining, and arts scene. This is one of the last opportunities to create an entirely new luxury neighborhood along the river,” said Lori Lane, President and CEO of LLane & Co , the Atlanta-based real estate brokerage behind Upper East River. “Buyers recognize the rarity of the location—and they’re responding." Luxury Design with a Savannah Soul Homes at Upper East River blend refined modern design with timeless Southern architectural influences. Thoughtfully curated streetscapes, high-end finishes, and spacious floor plans cater to buyers who value craftsmanship as much as lifestyle. Ready to move-in penthouses with expansive outdoor entertaining spaces on the river in the Mayor’s Building are priced from $5.3 million to $8.5 million. New Townhomes now under construction are priced from $1.1 million. Unlike traditional suburban luxury communities, Upper East River was designed to feel authentic to Savannah—rooted in the city’s maritime history while embracing contemporary living. A Lifestyle, Not Just a Home For luxury buyers, Upper East River offers more than a residence—it offers a way of life. Walkable trails, greenspaces, and future planned amenities create a neighborhood atmosphere where residents can engage with both nature and community. River views, morning walks, and sunset gatherings are part of everyday living. Just beyond the neighborhood, Savannah’s thriving dining, arts, and cultural scenes are minutes away—making Upper East River equally appealing as a primary residence or a refined second home. Why Luxury Buyers Are Moving Now Savannah’s growing national profile, combined with limited new luxury inventory, has prompted many buyers to move decisively. Upper East River’s early success reflects a broader trend: affluent buyers are prioritizing quality of life, architectural integrity, and locations that offer long-term value. With strong buyer interest and new product types now under construction, Upper East River is quickly becoming one of Savannah’s most sought-after luxury addresses. Setting a New Standard for Savannah Living As Savannah continues to attract discerning buyers seeking sophistication without pretension, Upper East River stands apart—offering a fresh vision of riverfront luxury that feels both timeless and forward-thinking. For those looking to invest in Savannah’s next great neighborhood, the choice is becoming increasingly clear.
