Whether you are here for a weekend escape, a family vacation, or a longer stay in the Hostess City, this home offers an unforgettable setting in the very heart of downtown.

Historic Elegance in the Heart of Savannah

With its picturesque brick sidewalks, moss-draped oak trees, and classic architecture, The Alexander Ford House draws you into Savannah's rich history the moment you arrive. Step onto your private porch, where comfortable seating invites you to relax with your morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening while soaking in the charm of one of the city's most beloved neighborhoods.

Inside, the home offers a warm and inviting atmosphere designed for both relaxation and entertaining. The thoughtful blend of original details and modern updates ensures that every corner feels special, creating a memorable backdrop for your Savannah getaway.

Comfortable Living and Gathering Spaces

The Alexander Ford House features a spacious living room that serves as the central hub for your stay. A plush sofa and stylish seating provide the perfect spot to unwind after a day of exploring Savannah's squares, shops, and restaurants. The smart TV with streaming access ensures that everyone can enjoy their favorite shows and movies together in the evenings. Large windows bring in natural light, highlighting the refined décor and creating a cozy yet sophisticated atmosphere.

A Kitchen Designed for Southern Dining

For those who love to cook, or simply enjoy the convenience of a home-cooked meal during their travels, the fully equipped kitchen delivers everything you need. Outfitted with full-size appliances, cookware, utensils, and dishware, it is perfect for preparing anything from a quick breakfast to a multi-course dinner.
Just beyond the kitchen, the dining area features a table that seats six. This space is ideal for shared meals, game nights, or planning the next day's adventures around Savannah. The combination of comfort and style makes it a welcoming gathering point for your group.

Three Inviting Bedrooms

At the end of each day, you will find three inviting bedrooms designed with both comfort and charm in mind.

The second full bathroom includes a stand-up shower and dual sinks, adding both convenience and a touch of luxury.
