Built in 1886 and thoughtfully renovated, Penance is a two-bedroom Savannah Historic District townhouse with a maximalist point of view. Just two blocks from Forsyth Park and two blocks from Whitefield Square, this colorful, design-forward home combines historic details like exposed brick, hardwood floors, and an original staircase with bold print, saturated color, and plenty of personality.
The main floor has an open layout connecting the living room, dining room, and private courtyard. The comfortable living room has plenty of seating and a flat-screen TV, while a half bath is tucked beneath the staircase. The compact, fully equipped kitchen overlooks the courtyard, keeping everyone connected while meals and morning coffee are being made. Upstairs, you’ll find both bedrooms, a full bathroom with a shower/tub combination, and a separate laundry room. The primary bedroom has a king bed, a large TV, and plenty of space to settle in. The second bedroom has two twin beds, making it a great option for kids or friends traveling together. The private courtyard offers a quiet spot for morning coffee or an evening drink after exploring the city.
Location is one of Penance’s biggest perks. Forsyth Park, Savannah’s largest green space, is just a two-block walk, as is Whitefield Square, a popular spot for Savannah weddings. Mate Factor Cafe is on the block for organic coffee, maté teas, and house-made pastries, while Kroger, the only full-service grocery store in the Historic District, is about a two-minute walk away. Johnnie Ganem’s is nearby for wine and spirits, and Savannah’s restaurants, shops, and attractions are easily accessible from here.
Sleeping Configuration:
Bedroom 1: King Bed
