About this house rental

Summary:

The Space:

Luxury Living Savannah's Washington Square Mansion is 2 blocks from River Street and one block from Broughton Street! The neighboring historic square, named for George Washington, is on Houston Street near the site of the old Trustees Garden.



In 2004, after sitting vacant since 1992, Luxury Living Savannah purchased delapidated building and began it's indepth restoration that took a few years and painstaking work. The Washington Square property was given a Preservation Award from the Historic Savannah Foundation in 2006 for the outstanding accomplishement in preserving this historic landmark home.



Even after being abandoned for over a decade, the home miraculously retained the vast majority of its original details! The original stair case was intact. It retained the heart pine wood planks throughout. All the doors and windows had the original hardware. Parts of the home feature bead board wainscoting, fireplaces and mantles all saved and restored.



The painstaking restoration was conducted by stringent guidelines laid out by the Department of Natural Resource in Washington D.C. These guidelines were followed in order to save the historic integrity of the home and its significant contribution to Savannah’s Landmark Historic District. All of this and and 2 blocks to River Street!



No expense was spared on the period correct modernization of this historic property.

The location of the house just couldn't be beat. We were able to walk everywhere and the neighborhood felt safe. The house itself was beautiful, very clean, and gave our group of four women enough room to have our own spaces but then congregate in the living room for fun and laughs. The host was very responsive to any questions we had. We are hoping to come back and stay again!

Excellent location to everything in Savannah. The house is decorated in the best way and all the rooms have their own bathroom which made it very convenient when everyone was getting ready. Sitting areas were very nice as well.

This is a beautiful, historical home in the heart of everything Savannah has to offer. The house is immaculate and provides comfy beds and all the amenities you could ask for. Everything is walkable from its location. We fully enjoyed our stay in the home.

Nice property, just not ideal for little kids. Beautiful weather, able to utilize the courtyard to play. It’s a “grown up” house. Decorated nicely, with large furniture and lovely (breakable) decor. Glad we were out and about most of the weekend. Didn’t enjoy the neighborhood noise- cars playing loud music, motorcycle engines revving; typical city sounds, however, the walls are not very sound proof. The original staircase is lovely but makes a ton of noise , while using, when the whole house is sleeping. Lastly, had a jolting incident with other tenants. After being on the property for a few hours , cleaning up after dinner, tenants of the “Carriage House” walked right into the front door insisting they were the rightful tenants of the main house. It almost got heated and took me quite a while to explain they had rented the “apartment above the garage”, which the owner described as a “Carriage House”. Spoke with the owner after explaining the situation. The owner uses the address of the main house for dir renting the 2 bed apartment. My advice- please refer to that property as “apartment above garage” rather than “Carriage House”. This whole situation would have been avoided if these tenants understood the correct description of the 2 bed property they rented.
