This inviting one-bedroom cottage offers original hardwood floors, a renovated kitchen, and a comfortable, efficient layout designed for easy everyday living. Major improvements include a **brand-new roof in 2026, replacement windows and garage doors in 2020, and an HVAC system just a few years old.**

Outside, enjoy the beautifully landscaped shared courtyard at Fig Common without the burden of maintaining a large private yard. Spend your weekends enjoying Savannah, pursuing your hobbies, or simply relaxing instead of tackling yard work.
**Investors take note!** Firefly Cottage has an established rental history, having been leased for **$1,475 per month from 2022 through 2026**. Whether you're seeking a primary residence, a Savannah pied-à-terre, or an income-producing investment, this property offers flexibility and value.
**Offered at $167,500**, Firefly Cottage delivers an appealing combination of character, practical space, low-maintenance living, and proven rental history.
Fig Common is an HOA, allowing for easy SAV living — estimated HOA dues of $140/month includes landscaping maintenance, exterior building insurance, and common-area insurance. Owners will carry content insurance (est $50/mo). Ready for closing end of November 2026.
Firefly is back on the market after an out-of-town investor decided not to move forward during due diligence. The buyer had not personally toured the property.
