Inside A Marvelous Townhome: Savannah’s Historic District
228 Houston Street sits nestled among the sprawling oaks of Savannah. Engineered with historic Savannah grey brick, this stately three-bedroom townhouse illustrates the traditional architecture and refinement that the Historic District is known for. The residence reaches an impressive four stories, with a 2,791-square-foot interior conjuring the elegance of a bygone era through richly hued hardwood floors, ornamental moldings and millwork, and a warming gas fireplace. Modern amenities are not hard to come by, including a security system, an ultra quiet central air conditioning, and an elevator offering effortless access to all three floors. Plus the house is one of the only ADA compliant buildings in the Historic District.
On the main level the kitchen is equipped for momentous culinary efforts, with top of the line appliances and custom cabinetry. Creating an epitome of classical elegance through its brick fireplace and large windows, a formal living room adjoins the kitchen in an arrangement perfect for intimate gatherings. A charming balcony graces the exterior of the home, perfectly designed for espresso martinis and relaxation in the fresh low country air.
The owners suite consists of a peaceful, spacious bedroom, with a wall of windows that admits lovely light and gazes out over the enviable cobble stones of savannah. The luxurious master bath is comprised of a custom shower featuring beautiful tile work and a large double vanity. The opulence does not end with master. The spare rooms offer plenty of versatility with two guest suites, beautifully designed, and include ample closet space. Located off the garden level, the second guest space features a wheelchair accessible bathroom and sits within close proximity to the elevator. Tucked away, the upper most level has been renovated into a private office designed with custom built-ins from a local craftsman and offers a birds eye view of crawford square.
