Having a car is unnecessary when living here - you can walk, ride, or bike anywhere in this part of town.



Convenience and grocery stores are just a few minutes' walk from the Victorian Estate - without mentioning the plethora of cafes, bars, and restaurants.



Set off East towards Clary's Cafe for breakfast. Walk through each square to shop local retailers, grab a coffee or quick bite, or park yourself at a bench and just enjoy the Savannah scenery. Those in the mood for a true Southern meal will love being a stone's throw away from Mrs. Wilkes Boarding Room, with other local favorites such as 700 Drayton or Crystal Beer Parlor just a short walk from the apartment.



Popular tourist areas such as River Street and City Market are just a 20-minute walk away, while Savannah's local green space - Forsyth Park - is on the same block as the property.
