Celebrity Chef Paula Deen’s Secluded Savannah Estate  Now on the Market For $12.5 Million  

SAVANNAH, GA – Celebrity Chef Paula Deen’s secluded Savannah estate –a world-class property with panoramic views over the Wilmington River—is now being globally marketed by Christie’s International Real Estate, the world’s leading luxury real estate network. Offered at U.S. $12, 500,000 by affiliate Seabolt Brokers, the significant manor sits upon a high bluff and presents 300 feet of water frontage.

Aptly called “Riverbend,” the estate—boasting in its entirety eight bedrooms, eight bathrooms and one half-bath— is accessed through a gated entrance complimented by impeccably manicured and lush landscaping. The property’s main house, spanning more than 14,500 square feet, boasts a French Caribbean style with a natural color palette and fine flooring and finishes. Its state-of-the-art gourmet kitchen has commercial-grade appliances and a stunning English pantry. An aviary, a study with a saltwater aquarium, and a striking living room overlooking the outdoor terraces and Wilmington River, add to the home’s allure. The master suite offers an oversized bathroom with a sitting area, a dressing room, custom walk-in closet, and through elegant French doors—a private terrace.

“Surely one of the most significant listings in Savannah, the property exudes luxury that’s gracefully presented with southern warmth,” said Rick Moeser, Senior Vice President, Southeast Regional Manager for Christie’s International Real Estate.

Vast appeal continues outdoors, where surrounded by vibrant greenery sits an expansive terrace. The entertaining space overlooks a sleek pool and offers an incredible outdoor kitchen with three separate grills, four refrigerators and a smoker. The home also features a dive-in theater, pool room, exercise room, and a media room outfitted with a movie screen, projector, soda fountain, and ice maker. Other exterior amenities include a private croquet court, stocked pond, dock, and charming dock house.

Additional highlights of the property include two guest cottages, a 10,000-square-foot barn with an eight-car garage and a three-bedroom apartment. The property also includes an emergency 75,000-Watt generator and 500-gallon back-up propane tank.

“With seemingly endless comforts and unparalleled privacy, this home truly is its own secluded resort,” said Elaine Seabolt, the listing agent with Christie’s International Real Estate affiliate Seabolt Brokers. “And the prized, river bend setting only furthers its prominence.”
