Property Description
A rare opportunity overlooking Forsyth Park in one of Savannah's most coveted downtown locations. With its striking columned facade and commanding presence, this circa-1900 residence offers the chance to create a truly exceptional home in the heart of the Historic District. Original architectural details remain throughout, including soaring 13-foot ceilings, grand fireplaces, and oversized windows that fill the home with natural light. A private parlor level provides additional flexibility for future living space, guest accommodations, a home office, or other creative uses. Previously operated as a bed and breakfast, the property has been taken down to the studs and is ready for restoration. The side lawn, iconic Forsyth Park setting, and blank-canvas interior present a rare opportunity for an owner, investor, or preservation enthusiast to bring new life to one of Savannah's most distinctive historic residences.
