About this property

George Baldwin House Garden Apartment

The George Baldwin House was constructed in 1887. Designed by architect William Gibbons Preston. This was the first commission for Preston who later went on to design many of the most famous and impressive Savannah landmarks such as the Cotton Exchange. This home is largely original and rustic on the interior. The low price reflects that aspect of the unit interior but the incredible house and great location certainly are impressive. This is for those who want to experience something far different from a polished hotel room during their historic Savannah vacation. Brockington Hall is right next door. The apartment kitchen is stocked with basic utensils (plates, pots and pans, etc) as well as a refrigerator and stove and dishwasher. We do provide sheets and towels at this listing as well.

There are two separate bedrooms in this garden apartment unit, each with a Queen size bed. The bathroom is en suite with one of the bedrooms and the bedrooms have curtains as doors so this is great for parents with a teenager or 2 friends who want to sleep in separate beds but may not be suitable for 2 couples.

We do not have a sleeper sofa so this unit sleeps a max of 4 people.

The gardens and exterior of the home are other worldly, like stepping back in time. All outdoor space is shared with several other apartments in the mansion. Each apartment has its own private entrance. You have a very spacious screened in porch including an outdoor dining table and sofa that is private to this apartment. Parking is free and easy on the street at this location and the main downtown grocery store (Kroger) is less than a block away.

Beautiful, historic building within 2 blocks of Forsyth Park. Far enough away from the high tourist areas to be nice and quiet but close enough for it to be an easy walk to those areas. Also, super comfy beds and a lovely outside area!

The apartment was very clean and was conveniently located with a grocery store across the street. The host should give better instructions on how to use the outside door lock though. It does not work the same as the inside door lock as was stated in the arrival instructions.

It was such a perfect getaway for a girls trip. We thought the apartment was so cute. It was a gorgeous part of town very close to the Kroger, which was a plus. The neighborhood was beautiful. We really enjoyed reading in the outdoor area.

Everything was just quite nice. Parking was perfect, which is a VERY good thing in Savannah. In better (warmer) weather, the porch and yard would have been delightful. Did get to sit on the porch for a bit one of the days and it was delightful.

Beautiful older home in the heart of Savannah. For its age home was suitable. The apartment we rented was clearly a basement apartment. Some updates would make a hugh difference. The yard is in need of landscaping. The bathroom sink needs replaced. Paint was chipped in places, closet was very dusty with cobwebs. With some paint and an overall deep cleaning the apartment would look lovely! Overall would recommend for a one of a kind, elective experience!

Just me and a friend stayed here, but it would be perfect for up to 4 people. The house the unit is in was gorgeous, and the screened in porch was perfect for relaxing. Parking was easy and grocery right next door. Would stay here again!

We loved the location. Could walk anywhere. The character of the place was fun and the screened in porch was a bonus. The beds were soooo comfortable. Only real problems were in the middle of the night I went to turn down the A/C and the TV turned on with the A/C remote. Of course then I had to find the TV remote to turn it off. Also the bedroom closet could use some kind of air freshener, I did not want to hang my clothes in there fearing they would smell musty. Also the shower head could use a cleaning so it does not spray in many different directions. We would stay here again!

Being a single mother for the majority of my son’s life, I’m very aware of my surroundings and safety. I felt extremely safe in the apartment that we stayed at. Kroger and Goodwill were within sight of the apartment. The apartment itself was adorable and was spot on with the description on the site. We were within walking distance of a lot of the major tourist attractions but far away from any noise from attractions. If we happen to stay in Savannah again, it will be at this location.
