Space

Original in 1868, the Liberty House was the second home on East Liberty Street built for John Hernandez. Listed in Savannah’s city directories as a confectioner from St. Augustine, Florida, Mr. Hernandez is believed to have raised his family of four children in the home before selling the property in retirement. Since its construction, this authentic Savannah townhome has been meticulously cared for boasting original stone fireplaces, stair banisters, hard oak flooring, and incredible custom trim work.
Enter the property one of two ways, either from the ascending staircase on Liberty Street or through the private off-street parking at the rear of the property. As you enter the townhome you will be immediately awestruck by the preserved colonial past that is captured throughout the home. In the front of the home, you will find the formal living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, an original fireplace, high ceilings, and William and Mary furniture. Directly off this space is the formal dining room with a large hardwood dining table set for 6, a colonial-inspired chandelier, and stunning built-in bookshelves.
Along the main hallway connecting the townhome from front to back find the main floor powder room along with beautiful artwork. Follow the hallway to the rear of the property where a modernized gourmet galley kitchen awaits you. This fully appointed kitchen boasts high-end appliances, stone countertops, custom cabinetry, and a butler’s nook. Find everything you need to cook delicious meals including cooking utensils, pots, pans, and dishware. A microwave and a coffee maker are provided.
Directly off the kitchen is the den presenting a comfortable sofa, chairs, and smart TV perfect for all your streaming needs. Step out on the back terrace and follow the staircase down to the shared garden patio. The ample room allows you to spread out and enjoy beautiful Savannah mornings and evenings under the shade of live oak trees, cathedral spires, and high privacy walls.
On the third level of the building find the two private bedrooms. In the master suite enjoy a brand-new king mattress, personal fireplace wrapped in granite, closet and dresser storage, and shuttered windows original to the home. The second bedroom features a new queen mattress, fireplace, and closet and dresser storage. Both private bedrooms feature their own bathrooms, well-appointed with everything you need from bath towels, hand towels, shampoo, and body wash.
Working remotely during your stay? The townhome has ample desk space and high-speed WIFI perfect for video conferencing and multi-tasking.

Getting around

There is a FREE shuttle that picks up just 2 blocks away at Drayton St. and Perry St.. This will take you up and down the Historic District and can drop you off at City Market. Otherwise we recommend using Uber/Lyft as parking around town can be pretty chaotic and is usually less than $5 to get anywhere. There is also a free City "uber" called The Downtowner. You can download the app on your phone and get picked up for free as well :)

Guest Access

You may access the entire parlor level and the outdoor courtyard space past the bottom of the stairs. The outdoor courtyard is the only shared space between you and the ground floor unit. The green dining set below the staircase is for the downstairs unit, and the larger black table and fire pit is for your use.

Please do not use our linens/towels to wipe off makeup or excessive dirt, we offer makeup wipes and paper towels for these reasons. Stained linens may result in a linen fee of up to $50 per item.

Do not flush ANY thing other than toilet paper down the toilets ("flushable" wet wipes are not permitted either). If we have to call an emergency plumber and find that the cause of a blockage is due to something unpermitted being flushed, you will be subject to a $250 fee.

We really enjoyed our stay! Thank you so much Brandon and Chase for being extremely responsive and accommodating our late checkout. I will definitely make this my go to place for Savannah when I return! I highly recommend liberty House for anybody looking for a lodging option in an extremely walkable perfect Savannah location near everything. It was quiet, comfortable, beautiful and historic. we also enjoyed having the parking space and not having to worry about moving the car or how far away it was.

This is a gem of an Airbnb! Rarely do you find a rental that feels as collected and authentic—furnishings and decor are period appropriate and layered….not at all your typical cold box devoid of personality. Beds are comfortable and all amenities necessary are provided. This is also a very convenient location with easy walkable access to the entire historic district.

Beautiful Victorian house, decorated to match with modern kitchen area. Very warm and cozy at time we visited in mid to later January when temperatures were around 5 centigrade Easy walking distance to Broughton Street and river front. Historic old town all around. Several excellent restaurants within a few blocks Brandon and Chase were excellent hosts. Responded very quickly to our questions.

House was amazing and a 10 minute walk from the downtown. There are restaurants and cafes on the same street not far away. Please note that the furniture is not quite the same as the photos. The living room furniture isn't as fancy but it's still nice and comfortable to sit in. Beds were comfortable and clean with soft white sheets and the white bathroom towels were clean and odorless. There is a Breville espresso machine in the kitchen where you can grind your coffee, make a cup of espresso and produce milk foam. Please note that the non master bedroom faces a busy street so you do hear cars passing by. It's not overly loud but if you're a light sleeper, it might affect you. I got used to it after a day or two. The Colonial Park Cemetery is right behind the house. This is a historical cemetery. And theres a huge cathedral across the street. Owners were very responsive and helpful. We recommend this place to anyone looking for a historical home in a convenient location in Savannah.

Right in the heart of the historic district. Walkable to everything. The accommodations themselves were spacious, clean, and comfortable with plenty of thoughtful amenities such as a fully stocked kitchen a large screen television, and plenty of towels

We had a wonderful stay at the Liberty House. The property is gorgeous and unique with an ideal location for historic district walking and sightseeing. Brandon and Chase had the place perfectly prepared and communicated check in/check out info clearly. We'd be pleased to book again. Thanks for a great stay!

Brandon and Chase were always responsive to any texts, emails, etc within 1 hour but normally within minutes. This is a great property. Pictures are very accurate. We did use the courtyard in the evenings. The courtyard is secure which was great to lock our bicycles up in the evenings. You are close to several restaurants, bars and coffee shops. We enjoyed our stay at the Liberty House and if our schedule permits will stay there again next year in the fall.

We loved this cozy but spacious historic home located right in the center of the city. Beautifully decorated for the time period which adds to its charm and experience of staying in Savannah. There are a couple of great coffee shops right across the street and a number of restaurants within a few minutes walk. Easy dedicated parking spot right behind the house. The only negative is that it is located on one of the busier streets of the city so if you are a light sleeper you will hear the street traffic but it wasn't bad. We would definitely recommend staying here.
