One-bedroom apartments never sound biggggg, but this one is just that, thanks to the spacious designs of Victorian-era architects. Come take a look at this high ceilinged, one-bedroom floor apartment that occupies its own private corner of a stately old townhouse, long ago converted to separate-entrance apartments.
Here, you have the privacy of a columned, wrap-around porch where you'll watch the Savannah influencer-world go by on its way to the trendy diversions of the Starland neighborhood you call home. Nobody knows for sure but there's a big star on the roof of this handsome house so it may have played a part in the neighborhood named for the popular Starland Dairy back in the day....
It comes to you unfurnished as the photos show it, but there are also pictures of it furnished to give you an idea how chic you can make it when its yours.
Inside is your biggg, window-lined living room with lots of light including a bay window, antique fireplaces and handsome, no, awesome (!) columned woodwork.
Add to that: shining wood floors throughout living room, bedroom and hall, period light fixtures, a bedroom that features double sliding doors, plus a windowed kitchen with all the requisite appliances.
One more plus and a rarity in Savannah: a windowed basement where the washer/dryer lives and where you can store all those things you love but don't want to look at every day.
Add to this picture: access to a big private courtyard that may once have been the carriageway for the stables but these days includes a big, roofed storage outbuilding and paver stones perfect for chic evenings under the stars or casual get-togethers. There's a small enclosed courtyard just outside your back door that's been spiffed up as a sitting area for just you! And it even includes some special features for your furry friend!
Here in the stylish Victorian Starland neighborhood, you'll also be just a few minutes from the lively and eccentric activities of the riverfront, and you can get quickly to Kroger's and the vast array of shops, restaurants and diversions on Abercorn, Broughton or Victory. Popular SCAD buildings are within walking or easy biking distance. Those wild and crazy Savannah Bananas baseball guys go out to play just a mile or so away, and Forsyth Park's serenity is close by, too.
With this impressive and historic stone-clad house occupying the entire corner of 39th and Barnard, there's easy available parking all the time so no-hassle spots are easy to find on street-sweeping days. Utilities are on your own.
This is the dream home for privacy-seekers looking to settle into a quiet neighborhood yet be close to Savannah's shady squares, intriguing historic sites. iconic Forsyth Park and eclectic riverside diversions!
Call or text me, Marylyn, and come on over and take a look, even if you're just lookin'!
