A 1939 Garrison Colonial in Savannah's historic Gordonston neighborhood, where original character meets the updates buyers actually want. With two working fireplaces, original pine floors, and a private detached cabana with its own entrance and full bath, this home offers flexibility that is increasingly hard to find. The expensive work is already done. The electrical panel, HVAC, and water heater have all been updated within the past three years. The main house roof was recoated in 2023, the exterior was painted in 2025, and the interior has been freshly painted. Located in Flood Zone X. A brick walk lined with boxwood leads into a welcoming living room anchored by a working fireplace. Upstairs, the primary bedroom features the home's second fireplace. The primary bedroom, second bedroom, and a versatile third room, ideal for an office, nursery, or studio, share a full hall bath. The kitchen features a Frigidaire stainless appliance suite, including a new dishwasher and disposal. A mudroom just off the kitchen provides additional storage and houses the home's second full bath. LED fixtures are found throughout, with most on dimmers. Then there's the cabana. Set apart from the main house with its own entrance, this one-bedroom space includes a full bath, knotty pine paneling, refinished original oak floors, a new metal roof, and a new mini split. A sink and mini fridge create a convenient wet bar, making the cabana ideal for guests, a private office, creative studio, or flexible living space. Outside, mature landscaping frames a fenced backyard and courtyard, while a large carport provides covered parking. Laundry hookups are conveniently located in both the carport and main house. Historic character, meaningful updates, and a truly versatile second living space make this Gordonston property one worth seeing in person. Schedule your showing and discover the cabana for yourself.
