Historic Townhome and Carriage House w/Garage, located next to Forsyth Park!

Built in 1882 and conveniently located on East Gaston Street in the historic district, this stately home is steps to Forsyth Park and within easy walking distance of restaurants, squares, museums, shopping, and a 20-minute walk to the famous Riverfront. The property includes the main 4-bedroom house, (the upper three levels of the townhome), and a 1-bedroom carriage house, each with a private entrance and shared access to the rear courtyard. This spacious home has been beautifully restored, maintaining many original features, yet updated with modern conveniences. This home is ideal for wedding parties, girls' weekends, large groups, and family gatherings! Sleeps 12 total.

The main house retains many original features, including high ceilings, fireplaces in each bedroom (non-functioning), original floors and woodwork, antique furnishings, and other period decor. On the main level is the living room, formal dining room, fully-stocked kitchen with stainless appliances and granite countertops, a breakfast room, and a half bath. The second level has two bedrooms (one with a king bed and one with a queen), a bonus room (with twin daybed and trundle), an office space, and a full bathroom with a jacuzzi tub and separate shower. The top level has two additional bedrooms (one with king bed and one with a queen) and a full bathroom with an antique claw-foot tub/shower.
A balcony off the breakfast room on the main level overlooks a lovely courtyard below, and a full-size washer and dryer are located in the hallway on the upper level for guest use. The house has high-speed Internet and TVs in each bedroom for streaming. The living room TV also has cable. Note that there are several staircases and no elevator. Please supervise young children.

Family Reunion

Our group of 8 adult cousins, uncles, and spouses truly enjoyed gathering at this gorgeous home from all over US. The hosts were extremely welcoming and communicative. We were able to be very close to view the St. Patrick’s Parade, enjoy Forsyth Park, and walk to the downtown attractions. Having family breakfast was wonderful at the large dinning table.

Beautiful historic home in the center of downtown Savannah!

Our family had a wonderful Thanksgiving holiday at this beautiful home. All ages (3-71) had a great time! The house was clean, full of all the essentials we could need, and the hosts were so kind and responsive to all our questions. Steps from Forsyth park, a playground, and the many wonderful sites of Savannah! We highly recommend staying here!

Hockey Tournament Weekend with Extended Family for

The home was spacious and beautifully decorated, providing plenty of room for everyone to relax and enjoy. We loved the open-concept living area, which made it easy for us to gather together for meals and spend quality time. We recommend bringing items like aluminum foil, seasoning, and serving utensils if you plan on cooking.The location was great, with nearby attractions that catered to both adults and kids, adding to the overall experience. There were a ton of restaurants in walking distance and it was nice that parking was free on the weekends and after 5:00 on weekdays. Our host was incredibly welcoming and helpful throughout our stay. They provided clear instructions for everything and even reached out to check if we needed anything.Overall, our family had a wonderful time, and we would highly recommend this rental to anyone looking for a great getaway. We hope to return in the future!

Beautiful home

I really enjoyed my stay at this beautiful home in an awesome location. My only complaints are the limited number of towels (I think there should've been at least 2 for each guest...just my opinion) and there should be more trash bags provided, especially with a cleaning fee of over $400 (we had 1 trash bag for our 3 day stay). Otherwise, the owners were very responsive and we're so thankful to have found this home last minute after a previous VRBO owner canceled on us.

Reunion

My family and I stayed at this property and it was a great space to stay 5 days. Half a block from the park, several blocks from shops and restaurants. I used the carriage house to seclude my little one to keep her on a sleep schedule, it also allowed the family to socialize without disturbing her. The courtyard was also a great space to have conversations about anything and everything. Highly recommend.

this home was perfect for our reunion. We are a group of 70 year old sorority sisters. The home is beautiful and in a great location, particularly for walking. We were able to walk around Forsyth Park and the SCAD Sidewalk Art Festival was going on during the stay. The large living room was perfect for sitting around and visiting, which we loved!

Beautiful Property and Incredible and Communicative Hosts

I stayed at this property for my Bachelorette party this weekend and it was just as beautiful as it appears in the pictures. It is close to the park and in a very walkable location, next to great shops, and 30 minutes away from the beach. The host, Jessica, was amazing and extremely communicative, and all of my guests loved the house. It was great for a larger group who have different sleeping schedules, and the back yard is super cute. Would highly recommend this property!

Perfect spot for a large crew

We had our wedding in Savannah in October and this is where I housed my side of the family. The house was beautiful and had all of the space we needed. And it was awesome to have the carriage house room all to myself for some peace and quiet between festivities. Jessica was so responsive and kind with all of my questions. Can't wait to come back again! And the location was incredible for quiet walks in the beautiful Forsyth Park.

We love to travel with our family. A few years ago, we decided to invest in real estate in areas where we love to vacation. We now own properties in Pigeon Forge TN, Savannah GA, and Isle of Palms SC. We self-manage our properties to ensure great customer service and responsiveness and we've partnered with a dedicated team of local professional service providers to help us clean and maintain our homes. Our collective goal is to provide our guests with a great vacation experience in beautiful and unique properties. We hope you enjoy your stay!

Why they chose this property

We love this grand old home for its historic appeal, beautiful architecture, original floors, woodwork, and trim, as well as its prime location, which is only half a block from Forsyth Park on beautiful East Gaston Street. It is centrally located within easy walking distance to restaurants, shops, and squares, and about a 20-minute walk to the historic Riverfront.

What makes this property unique

A great location, within walking distance to most of Savannah's attractions. Tall ceilings, large bedrooms, hardwood floors, original woodwork, a lovely courtyard, and a quaint carriage house add to the charm of this older home. The home has been updated with modern conveniences but retains many original features.
