About this home

Back on market through no fault to the seller. Built in 1910, this classic Transitional American Foursquare blends historic Savannah character with thoughtful updates and rich with original details. The home features true heart pine floors, original fireplaces with period tile, plaster walls, picture rails, and authentic woodwork that reflects its early 20th-century craftsmanship. The layout offers spacious, light-filled rooms and a flexible floor plan, with modern comfort added through central A/C downstairs and a ductless HVAC system upstairs, preserving the home’s integrity while enhancing livability. Set on a rare lot-and-a-half, the outdoor space is a standout. The property has been improved with French drains for effective water management and features side-by-side off-street parking with room for additional storage, a boat, or recreational vehicles. The backyard offers a lush expanse of Empire Zoysia grass, mature pecan trees, and established landscaping, creating a private, park-like setting. Located just blocks from the Starland District, this home is surrounded by some of Savannah’s most beloved local spots, including dining, coffee, and entertainment. It also offers convenient access to nearby parks and scenic walking paths, adding to the everyday lifestyle appeal. A true highlight of the property is the charming detached guest house, offering incredible flexibility for a private home office, creative studio, guest retreat, or potential income-producing space, adding both function and value to the property. This is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Savannah history with space, character, and location all in one.
