SLEEPS 6-10
Hardwood floors, high ceilings, stone, and marble combine to provide the ultimate in handsome style and serious comfort. Once past the marbled foyer, sunlight streams through tall windows into a living room resplendant with oversized mahogany tables and deep brown leather furnishings. Built-in floor to ceiling bookcases cradle between them a fireplace of pink marble which matches that in the entryhall. A 30-inch flatscreen TV/VCR/DVD beckons from the far corner. The open floorplan is conducive to fluid foot traffic and avoids the bottlenecking typical in older homes. Instead, each room on the first floor opens wide onto the others with pass-throughs, archways, and spacious airyness prominent throughout.
The Dining Room boasts a fireplace of black and gold marble with a mantle created from 400 year-old wooden beams.
From there, step into the huge, stone-tiled and oak kitchen. Warm and spacious, its quaker-esque ambiance is accentuated by modern appliances, handmade countertops of pine dating back over 400 years, high ceilings, and an antique oak dinette set with seating for four.
Three faux-french doors on the rear wall open onto a bi-level deck with a brick-rimmed patio encircled by foliage and white rock below. The charming landscape includes a small brick pathway leading to a wrought-iron arbor wrapped in roses. Outdoor iron furnishings consisting of an umbrella table and chairs along with built-in benches on the deck provide plenty of space for larger parties to enjoy our warm Savannah nights.
Upstairs on the second floor, choose from among any one of our three bedrooms, each flaunting a luxurious Queen-sized bed, to dream away the nights.
The lushly carpeted Master Bedroom is furnished in an Italian, Old World decor and features a private balcony, attached bath equipped with jetted tub, and a roomy, walk-in closet, as well as its own TV/VCR. You'll find it truly a refuge of privacy and handsome comfort.
Further down the polished wood hallway, two matching Queen-sized Bedrooms mirror one another with their quaint brick and mortar fireplaces, polished wooden-plank flooring, built-in mirrored closets, and iron furnishings. The charm and romance of the pink and white "Rosebud" room blends easily with the sterner, yet gracious decor of the black and white "Civil War" room with the latter paying gentle homage to the building of our home only a handful of years following the end of the War between the States.
Connecting the two bedrooms above are French Doors. Left open and you easily create a 2 bedroom suite. Leave them locked and you'll find a room of delightful privacy.
Open the door at the south end of the hall and find yourself soaked in sunlight as you enter a bathroom with a 5 foot long claw tub that doubles as a shower. The blue-speckled tile floor contrasts delightfully with countertops of sparkling white porcelein.
To ensure you'll find convenience throughout your stay, the north end of the hall discretely conceals a stackable Washer and Dryer behind a closet door.
The third floor will entrance the young at heart. It features an attic-design with low, slanted, ceilings that are fitted on both sides with dormir windors. Built-in window seats are brightly cushioned with green and blue plaid stripes. Hardwood pine floors stretch toward the wide closet which occupies most of the far wall. A writing desk, Nintendo GameCube, VCR, TV, & a footlocker filled with dress-up clothes occupy the corners of the room.
Bright, multicolored coverlets draw your attention to the antique, full-sized, iron bed resting opposite two twin beds in the center of the room.... and, as with all the bedrooms in the Taylor Manor, each features a luxurious, quality mattress to assure you of pleasant slumber. You'll find yourself smiling each time you return to this rainbow of color.
