Our Story
Step back in time and stay in the oldest home in Savannah (south of Liberty Street). The Bird Baldwin House, originally built in 1838 and located in the heart of Savannah’s Landmark Historic District – one of the largest areas of its kind in America, listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The Bird Baldwin House was built in two stages – the original wood-sided portion (left side) was constructed in 1838 and the stucco portion (right side) was added in 1860. Lewis Bird, a prominent Savannah attorney at the time, began the original construction but sadly perished with his entire family on the Steamship Pulaski when it exploded off the coast of North Carolina and sank on June 14, 1838. Mr. Bird's mother completed the house and later sold it to his law partner Mr. Baldwin who lived in it for many years. As one of the nicer manor homes along Liberty Street in Savannah during the Civil War, the house was seized and occupied by General Sherman’s staff in December 1864 as part of their capture of Savannah during the infamous Sherman’s March to the Sea.
We now offer four separate one-bedroom vacation rentals in the Historic Bird Baldwin House. For rates and availability, please visit: http://www.birdbaldwinhouse.com
