A History Spanning Nearly Two Centuries
The Bird Baldwin house is central to many of Savannah's famed downtown historic district destinations. It is one of the oldest homes in town, and certainly among the most storied of Savannah vacation rentals. The original portion of the home was built in 1838, and an addition was completed about twenty years later.
The first owners, the Lewis Bird family, never got to enjoy their new home due to a fatal explosion during a steamship excursion, but Bird's partner, an attorney named Baldwin, purchased the newly constructed house and set up residence. Commandeered during the Civil War by General Sherman as a temporary headquarters, the Bird Baldwin house survived many subsequent transformations before being reclaimed and renovated in more recent years. Such rich history amid natural beauty and culture are what make Georgia vacations so much fun.
