Wow, what a beautiful home! It really felt like we were guests at a friends home rather than staying in a rental. The property is beatifully decorated and comfortably appointed, the owner is very accommodating and it's in a great location for walking the Savannnah historic district. Historic homes, museums, city squares, the river front, shopping, dining and night life are all easily walkable.

Great place!

We all loved the house! The place had a lot of charm and plenty of room for the four of us to spread out when need be. The included parking was super convenient and we were in walking distance to all the attractions. We were actually a little bummed it wasn’t listed as available for next St. Patrick’s Day. Would highly recommend!

Charming, clean, convenient home

Steve’s place is located in a beautiful area, convenient to seeing historic/downtown and waterfront. It was so nice to have parking, which is hard to come by in Savannah. The home was clean, well cared for and the beds were comfortable. Steve was very responsive and accommodating. Would stay again when we return.

Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil

My wife and best friend's wife had been reading the book noted in title of the review. They were able to locate the sites all of the places mentioned in the book, thanks to to location of this gem. Town house was beautiful and had everything needed for a wonderful stay. Beds were cozy, kitchen was well appointed and again, a great location. We treated the house like it was our own, taking great care when using the tub/shower. The Uber rides ranged from 6 - 11 depending on how far you went and what time of day (and day). This place was great and I highly recommend it. Thanks again!

About the host

Hosted by Steve Framke

Host profile image
I'm a retired businessman. Still use this townhouse off and on during the year and our second home is near Richmond Hill.

Why they chose this property

This 1871 townhouse gives you a sense of what it was like living in Savannah during the 1870's, Private Garden Courtyard, original woodwork, staircase, high ceilings, with modern bathrooms and kitchen. I have collected antiques most of my life and the townhouse is furnished with mostly antique furniture. The home has the original heart pine floors, pocket doors, four fireplaces, an antique deep cast iron tub, all to give you the feel of what it was like back in the day.
This home was my first home in Savannah and lived full time for several years before retirement. I live here off and on during the year, my other home is in Richmond Hill.

What makes this property unique

Parking is at a premium downtown; we have two private parking places on the property. We also have free parking in the front of the town house. The home is located between Habersham and Price Streets. The row houses were built in two sections both have different architectural features my home is in the oldest section near the center of the block with the only balcony in the front., The front of my home was in the Clint Eastwood's Movie "Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil" as the Row house with the blue painted front door next to mine "Lady Chablis" came out of during the movie and walked in front of my home. We have Major Movie Studio here in Savannah so don't be surprised to see Movies being shot downtown.
