3 Distinctive Georgia Homes from Tybee Island to Alpharetta

With the Back River as its backdrop, 1605 Chatham Avenue #D offers a quieter side of Tybee Island living, paired with deeded, private beach access just steps from the water. Built in 1965 and offered as-is, the 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath layout invites a thoughtful refresh—an opportunity to personalize a true island retreat in one of Tybee’s most desirable settings. Days here naturally revolve around the shoreline, where wide sunset views set the pace and kayaking or paddleboarding are close at hand. When you’re ready to wander beyond the sand, Back River’s easy access to dining and shops keeps the rhythm relaxed and effortless. It’s equally suited to weekends away, a vacation base, or an unhurried coastal escape.

Along the water’s edge in Huntcliff, this architect-designed residence—originally built by William Simpson as his own family home—pairs enduring character with carefully executed updates. A broad front porch sets an inviting tone, while exposed beams, natural textures, and warm tones carry through the interiors. In the foyer and rear hallway, recycled brick flooring believed salvaged from a historic elementary school adds a quietly storied layer. The gourmet kitchen opens to the keeping room, anchored by a spacious scullery with abundant storage and a dedicated prep area suited to caterers and easy entertaining. A main-level primary suite offers a private retreat with a renovated, spa-inspired bath and a marble soaking tub imported from Vietnam, while an upstairs potential primary suite adds flexibility. Outside, patios, fire pit, grilling areas, walkways, irrigation, and mature landscaping shape year-round living beneath the trees.
