Investment Rationale

Why This Tract Matters Now

Annexation Precedent Established
In December 2024, the City of Savannah annexed the immediately adjacent 668-acre Speir Property (302 and 420 Bush Road) and rezoned it to Planned Development (PD), capping it at 1,500 residential units. The City-County Intergovernmental Agreement (IGA) that governs this corridor is now in force, establishing a clear entitlement pathway for surrounding tracts including the subject property.
Proximity to 10,000-Unit Master Plan
The 4,300-acre New Hampstead PUD — Savannah’s largest active master-planned community, entitled for 9,819 homes — borders the subject tract to the north and northwest. With over $45 million in infrastructure already in place and national builders actively delivering homes, New Hampstead validates the corridor’s capacity to absorb large-scale residential demand.
Infrastructure Advancing to the Site
A City of Savannah water line has been extended to the northwest corner of the adjacent parcel, and a sewer line runs in Little Neck Road. Chatham County is actively widening Little Neck Road to support increased traffic volumes. The IGA requires the City to provide utility easements to Scott Stell Park to the south, bringing municipal services closer to the subject property’s boundaries.
Industrial Job Engine Driving Demand
Located within 5 miles of the I-95/Fort Argyle Road interchange, where over 5.5 million square feet of industrial space is operational and another 3.5 million square feet is under construction. The 2025 arrival of Hyundai Metaplant America in Bryan County — 25 miles west — has accelerated demand for workforce housing throughout the Savannah region, directly benefiting this corridor.

Investment Thesis

The Case for This Tract

The Bush Road Tract is priced as a development-value asset, not a raw land holding. At $177,000 per acre, the asking price sits well above the Chatham County median land price of $103,336 per acre, but materially below the $257,576 per acre commanded by the fully entitled, utility-served Fort Argyle Road commercial-multifamily site currently on the market. The delta reflects the entitlement work still required — and the upside available to the buyer who executes it.

The adjacent 668-acre Speir Property annexation and PD rezoning, approved by City Council in December 2024, is the most direct precedent. That transaction established the City of Savannah’s willingness to annex and entitle land in this exact corridor, capped at 1,500 residential units for 668 acres. A buyer who pursues annexation and a PD master plan for the subject 46.6-acre tract is following a path that has already been cleared by a neighbor.

The Chatham County land market recorded a median price per acre of $103,336 across active listings in 2026, with a median days-on-market of 92 days. The subject property’s premium to that median is supported by its specific adjacency to New Hampstead, the Speir PD, and the active infrastructure investments in the corridor.

Buyer profile: This tract is suited for a residential developer, a land banker seeking optionality in a high-growth corridor, or an institutional buyer assembling acreage adjacent to the Speir PD master plan.

Forward Indicators

What to Watch Next

01
Speir PD Master Plan Approval
The approval of the adjacent Speir Property’s master plan (required within 180 days of annexation) will define the exact density distribution, road alignments, and commercial node locations directly bordering the subject tract. This is the single most important near-term trigger for the subject property’s own entitlement strategy.
02
Utility Easements to Scott Stell Park
The IGA requires the City of Savannah to provide water and sewer easements to Scott Stell Park on the south side of Bush Road. Execution of these easements will bring municipal utilities to the subject property’s southern boundary, materially reducing the infrastructure cost for future development.
03
Little Neck Road Widening Completion
Chatham County’s active widening and reconstruction of Little Neck Road — the primary access corridor for the Bush Road tract — will improve ingress/egress capacity and signal the county’s infrastructure commitment to the corridor, directly supporting future residential yield.
