A centrally located South Augusta neighborhood

Located 5 miles from Augusta Regional Airport, Goshen is an active community in South Augusta. The neighborhood is minutes from Fort Eisenhower and downtown Augusta. The Goshen Residents Association is a volunteer organization with community events that ensure the community stays safe and beautiful. “Goshen is a very nice area in South Augusta,” says Ryan Kineman, a Realtor with Ray Fredricks Realty, who recently sold a home in the neighborhood. “It’s close to Fort Eisenhower, and you can get to downtown Augusta in a 15-minute drive. It is very centrally located to what people need.”

Old ranch styles and new construction

Goshen allows potential homebuyers to pick between older homes or new construction properties. The original home inventory is a mix of brick ranch styles and split levels along winding neighborhood streets. Property lots are compact but feature driveways to avoid street parking. New construction developments continue to pop up, and those homes range from townhouses to ranches and new traditional Colonial Revivals. Prices range from $135,000 to $336,000, but buyers can expect a new construction three-bedroom townhouse to sell for about $200,000, while a three-bedroom ranch-style will sell for around $220,000. “The market right now is all about the individual properties. I have had listings for renovated houses move-in days, while a house that needs more money put into them will sit longer,” Kineman says.

The public track spans 7,400 yards and is designed by Ellis Maples.
