The Bird-Baldwin House has a rich, southern history. Built by Lewis Bird in 1838, it is the oldest home in Savannah South of Liberty Street. Bird, a prominent Savannah attorney, began the construct but tragically perished with his entire family on the Steamboat Pulaski when it exploded and sank off the coast of North Carolina on June 14, 1838. Bird’s mother completed the house and sold it to his law partner, Mr. Baldwin, who lived in it for many years. The house was commandeered and occupied by General Sherman’s staff as a temporary headquarters in December 1864, after Sherman’s infamous March to the Sea. The Bird-Baldwin House survived many subsequent transformations, including time as a boarding house and tavern known as “Harry’s Place,” before finally being restored and renovated. This Savannah condo offers soaring ceilings, Savannah heart pine flooring, and large windows. The kitchen has everything you need to enjoy a meal, or to warm up any leftovers from Savannah’s extensive selection of restaurants. After a long day of sightseeing, unwind by curling up in the luxurious King sized bed. You’ll be a short walk from the Savannah Visitor’s Center, where you can easily pick up a guided trolley tour. While you’re out, make sure you stop in at The Distillery Ale House for a pint. With 21 rotating taps and over 120 bottles and hand-crafted Spirits, they’re sure to have something for every palate. The foodie in all of us requires that you have lunch at Soho South Cafe. Dishes like their Seared Salmon BLT (with spinach, tomato, bacon, and a tangy garlic aioli on a toasted honey wheat roll ) and Howlin’ Chicken (fried chicken breast with fried pickles, cheddar cheese, and house made jalapeno ranch) will make you glad you did! Parking: Private Parking This unit includes a private parking space located at the rear of the property. Additional vehicles will need to be park on the street, which may be metered or non-metered. You may also park in a nearby garage, or purchase a parking pass at the Visitor Information Center located on MLK Jr., Blvd. This information and more is provided for our guests in our confirmation email upon booking.

About the area
Savannah, Georgia, is a delightful Southern city that provides a unique blend of history, culture, and natural beauty. It is renowned for its beautifully preserved antebellum architecture and historic districts, making it a haven for those with an interest in history. The Historic District of the city is one of the largest in the U.S., characterized by cobblestone streets adorned with oak trees draped in moss and magnificent historic residences.
The city's River Street was once the world's bustling hub for cotton exports. Today, it has transformed into a lively waterfront area brimming with shops, galleries, and restaurants situated in former cotton warehouses. Here visitors can take pleasure in breathtaking views of the Savannah River while indulging in local cuisine or shopping for distinctive souvenirs.
The cultural offerings of Savannah are equally captivating. The Telfair Museums comprise three separate sites: the Telfair Academy of Arts and Sciences - one of the first public museums in the South; Owens-Thomas House & Slave Quarters; and Jepson Center - a contemporary art center. Collectively they provide an enriching journey through art and history.
For those who love nature, Savannah's beautiful parks and squares will not disappoint. Forsyth Park is particularly popular due to its iconic fountain while Bonaventure Cemetery offers a hauntingly beautiful landscape filled with sculptures and Victorian funerary art.
Savannah also provides several beach options for visitors to enjoy. Tybee Island is just a short drive from downtown Savannah offering sandy beaches ideal for sunbathing or swimming along with a historic lighthouse that offers panoramic views of the Atlantic Ocean.
For food enthusiasts, exploring Savannah's culinary scene will be an adventure as it includes everything from traditional Southern dishes to fresh seafood to innovative farm-to-table dining experiences.
