The Historic Walker Mansion

With three centuries of history already past, Georgia’s first city enchants visitors and residents alike with its unique Southern charm, stunning natural beauty, and pedestrian-friendly layout. History abounds, from the restored cotton warehouses along the riverfront, to the meticulously preserved mansions which line the city streets. Stellar shopping, world-class dining, educational museums, and lively nightlife further prove that Savannah offers the very best of the South. The “Walker Mansion” offers the perfect opportunity to own a piece of that history. This elegant, restored, turn-of-the-century estate features approximately 8000 square feet of flexible living or working space and overlooks the Spanish moss and live oaks of beautiful Forsyth Park, the Landmark Historic District’s largest and most popular park. The luxury home was built for Captain George P. Walker, and was later owned by Central of Georgia Railway president A.E. Clift. It is loaded with timeless details and impressive decorative features, including large, wrap-around first and second floor verandas; five fireplaces; extensive carved mahogany paneling, columns and trim; period lighting; original hardwood and tile floors; and wonderful rooms such as a conservatory, a formal parlor, a commercial-sized kitchen, and much more. Its twelve rooms—including six bedrooms, three full and three half baths—unfold with a progression of grand spaces and graceful transitional hallways. In addition, its lovely grounds include many native plantings, private patio spaces and a two-storey carriage house with full apartment above and garage or storage area below. Zoned residential or professional, the Walker Mansion is perfect for a unique and gracious private home, bed-and-breakfast inn, or event and reception site.
