Savannah, Ga. | $875,000

An 1886 brick rowhouse with two bedrooms and two and a half bathrooms, on a 0.03-acre lot

This house is on a quiet block near Colonial Park Cemetery, founded in the mid-18th century and designated a city park in the 1890s. Columbia Square, a small public park surrounded by 18th- and 19th-century houses, is a few blocks away, as are many of Savannah’s historic homes and museums, including Telfair Museums, one of the oldest public art institutions in the South, and the Juliette Gordon Low Birthplace, an 1820s building devoted to the life of the Girl Scouts founder. A stretch of River Street near the Savannah River, where restaurants and boutiques are housed in converted warehouses, is about a 15-minute walk.

Savannah/Hilton Head International Airport is half an hour away; driving south to Jacksonville, Fla., takes just over two hours.

Size: 1,932 square feet

Price per square foot: $453

Indoors: This house sits at the end of the row, so only one wall is shared with neighbors. The entrance is beneath a small covered porch, and the front door opens into a foyer with original hardwood floors and a staircase with a powder room underneath.

To the left is a living room with large windows and a decorative fireplace that has a cast-iron surround. A set of pocket doors separates this room from the adjoining dining room, which has another decorative fireplace and more large windows that fill the space with natural light.

Behind the dining room is a kitchen with new stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. A laundry room is off this space.

Two bedrooms are on the second floor, at either end of a hallway lined with closets. The primary bedroom has a decorative fireplace, plenty of closet space and an en suite bathroom with a combined tub and shower. The guest room, which doubles as a home office, has the use of a full bathroom next door.

Outdoor space: Behind the house is a prized amenity in Savannah: a gated courtyard with a retractable shade that could be used as off-street parking. The property also includes a storage shed.

Taxes: $4,224 (estimated)
