The Lifestyle Snapshot: A Day in the Life at Upper East River

Nestled along the picturesque Savannah River, Upper East River offers an idyllic blend of luxury, comfort, and lifestyle. Imagine starting your day with the gentle breeze coming off the river, sunlight flooding your beautifully designed residence, and all of Savannah’s rich history and vibrant culture right at your doorstep. Here is a glimpse into the day in the life of those who live in our stunning neighborhood … just picture it.

Breakfast on the Terrace

River Homes Kitchen

Your day begins in the spacious, airy kitchen of your River Home. With top-of-the-line appliances and sleek finishes, breakfast preparation is a joy. Then, you make your way outside. Whether you prefer a cup of freshly brewed coffee, green juice, or a homemade smoothie, it’s all best enjoyed on your private terrace overlooking the glistening waters. Designed to extend your living space outdoors, the terrace provides breathtaking views of the riverfront—perfect for watching the sunrise as you settle into your day.

Savor your breakfast to the sound of the water gently lapping against the banks of the Savannah River. The calm of the morning envelopes you as you catch up on the latest news, listen to a favorite podcast, or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings.

A Walk Along the Riverfront

After breakfast, it’s time to take in more of the natural beauty that surrounds you here. A quick leash clip, and you and your best friend are off for a walk along the riverfront. As you stroll along the landscaped pathways, you’ll pass charming benches, greenery, and the occasional friendly wave from a neighbor.

Upper East River is all about blending urban access with natural tranquility, and there’s no better way to experience this than by walking along the riverfront, where you can soak in Savannah’s storied history and unique geography. The easy access to the water means a day in the life can include the river as often as you like.

Exploring the Neighborhood

As the day progresses, the charm of Savannah calls. Take a short walk or bike ride to explore the surrounding neighborhood, where a world of quaint coffee shops, boutique shops, and historic streets awaits. Maybe it’s a leisurely afternoon lunch at one of the many local bistros, or perhaps some light shopping along the cobblestone lanes that make Savannah famous. One of many fun ideas: during the warmer months, a trip to the world-beloved Leopold’s Ice Cream is a must!

Afterward, head back to your River Home to relax. The elegant design and thoughtful amenities of our homes provide the perfect blend of luxury and relaxation.

Dinner and Drinks at Plant Riverside

As the sun begins to set, the city comes alive in new ways. A favorite evening activity? Making the most of Plant Riverside District! A quick walk from Upper East River, this entertainment and dining hub leaves little to be desired. It is an ideal spot to unwind after a full day. Treat yourself to a delectable dinner at one of the trendy rooftop restaurants, offering both fresh flavors and stunning views of Savannah’s skyline. From craft cocktails to fresh seafood, Plant Riverside offers something for everyone.

Take in the vibrant atmosphere, live music (various Plant Riverside establishments offer this and you can view a calendar here), and incredible views for a special evening.

A Day in the Life: Living the Upper East River Dream

River Homes Bathroom

As the day winds down back in your River Home, perhaps you settle in for a cozy nightcap with a book, a bedtime movie with loved ones, or a bubble bath to set a peaceful tone. No matter your preference, our lovely environments offer tranquility and luxury amid one of the world’s most beautiful cities … it’s certainly a one-of-a-kind day in the life here.
