A Carefully Restored Midcentury Hits the Market at $415K in Savannah, Georgia
Inspired by the work of Joseph Eichler, architect-builder John Ahern created this three-bedroom, two-bath home in 1954.
After being updated over the years with careful consideration, the 2,200-square-foot abode has appeared on HGTV and in several architecture magazines, and has even won the Historic Savannah Foundation President’s Award and Remodeler Magazine Silver Award.
The stylish midcentury has an elegant profile.
The property features a light-filled open layout, a tongue-and-groove ceiling, an exposed brick fireplace, a state-of-the-art kitchen, as well as a detached office/library in the backyard that is referred to as the "Think Tank." Now, the home is being offered at $415,000.
Inside, the home features an open floor plan and an exposed brick fireplace.
Sliding glass doors lead out from the living room to the pool deck with a built-in brick hearth.
The soaring tongue-and-groove ceiling adds to the authentic midcentury charm.
