About this property

Charming Historic Home in Starland • Hot Tub • Walk to Forsyth & Downtown • 2BR

Welcome to the Citrine House - a true gem in Savannah.

This restored historic home sits on a charming street with colorful houses just steps from the best that the Starland District has to offer. Blending timeless charm with modern comfort, the home features bright interiors, large windows, hardwood floors, comfortable bedding, and well-equipped bathrooms.

The Space
The home offers two spacious bedrooms, each with a queen bed, plus a sleeper sofa in the living room for an additional guest. There are two full bathrooms, one with a walk-in shower and one with a bathtub/shower combo, along with a convenient downstairs powder room. The fully equipped kitchen includes cookware, bakeware, dishes, a coffee maker, dishwasher, microwave, stove, and full-size refrigerator. With a cozy living room, dedicated dining area, and a beautiful courtyard, the house is ideal for spending quality time with friends and family.

Amenities
Unwind in the private outdoor hot tub or gather around the firepit in the evenings, perfect for roasting marshmallows or relaxing after a day of exploring. Three bicycles are available for easy rides to the Starland District, Forsyth Park, or nearby coffee shops. Inside, you’ll find plenty of entertainment options: board games, Alexa speakers, a PlayStation 4, and access to all your favorite streaming services.

Neighborhood
Located in the vibrant Starland District, Savannah’s creative hub, the home is just steps from bakeries, craft breweries, local boutiques, galleries, and some of the city’s most innovative restaurants. Forsyth Park is a short walk away, and downtown and River Street are just a quick ride from the house or easy to reach by bike.

Perfect For
Couples, families, and business travelers seeking the charm of a historic home with modern amenities in one of Savannah’s most walkable and dynamic neighborhoods.

Know Before You Book
Savannah is a lively historic city, and this home sits in a genuine in-town neighborhood rather than a resort area. A nearby train passes most mornings, and you may hear the horn briefly; a white-noise machine is provided for light sleepers. There is a community service center on the main street, you may see people walking to and from local services. Guests consistently describe the area as friendly, comfortable, and easy to explore.

We loved our stay! The house was great - super cute, spacious, very comfortable beds and furniture. I was a little concerned with only having on-street parking, but that was no issue at all. It is a very small street with just a few houses. There was plenty of parking at any time of the day/night.Location was great with many walkable things to do. Will look into staying at this house again next time we visit Savannah.

Great restoration of historic home, very clean and nicely furnished. Neighborhood definitely in transition, enjoyed the shops and restaurants, but did not feel comfortable being out on the street at night, definitely would not be outside by myself at night.

Very cute house on a nice street. There are a few cute restaurants nearby within walking distance. One Italian restaurant called Lucia was very close nearby but unfortunately you need to book ahead because they book up quickly Cons-The neighborhood changes very quickly The next street over was a little sketchy and street parking was difficult to find at times. Mattresses could use updating and painting touch ups are needed in some areas. Television’s in the bedrooms would be nice. Overall very cute house.

Destination getaway.

A good friend & I take motorcycle trips annually. We visited Savannah this year & this property was perfect. We parked our bikes inside the fence behind the house that is on the alley way. Check in entry & check out was a breeze. House was clean and very well decorated. Beds were very comfortable. Would recommend & love to come back & stay here again.
