#1034: Comfortable Taylor St. townhome with spacious professionally designed deck

She's a 130 year old city girl, but not feeling or showing her age these days. Comfortable, unpretentious townhome, remodeled in 2004-2005, freshly decorated, newly furnished and ready to host Savannah visitors. First floor: living room, half bath, and large eat-in kitchen. Second floor: Two bedrooms (queen beds) and two full baths. Third floor: a spiral staircase leads to the cozy sleeping loft with two twin beds. Another comfortable fold-out twin bid is hidden in the large leather ottoman in the living area. Oriental carpets on original wood floors in the living room, master suite bedroom, and halls.

This block of Taylor Street has large rear yards, and at this property that has been transformed into a great big shaded "architectural" deck area out behind created by Yancey Siebert, a leading Savannah-based designer. The back yard features: (1) a brick courtyard leading up to (2) an oversized two-level deck around a gracious shade tree, with bamboo plantings, a water feature, and brick walkways. The jumbo deck is shared with a 2-bedroom near "mirror image" townhouse next door and with a 1-bedroom cottage at the rear of the property; either or both of them can be reserved with this property to accommodate larger groups such as for weddings, family reunions, and business group travel. See listings 1033 and 1035 for photos and descriptions of these properties.

Nearby: One and a half blocks to lovely Whitefield Square with the beautiful gazebo, and a short walk to Savannah's famous Clary's for breakfast or lunch, and to the Firefly Cafe on neighboring Troupe Square; close to beautiful Forsyth Park.

Lots of unrestricted parking right out front on the well-lighted street. The 500 block of East Taylor is a feast of achitectural diversity, with several recent restorations and renovations. Taking her place among two-story wood homes, cute cottages, and impressive brick townhouses, this property is right in the middle of one of Savannah's many interesting quiet side streets, convenient to everything in the Historic District.
