The Space:

The prized 'Wedding Cake Mansion' is the jewel of Monterey Square and is one of the most beautiful areas in Savannah. The square is graced by mansions on all corners, with languid Live Oaks, draped in Spanish Moss and anchored with historic monuments.



This 1869 2nd Empire Baroque Mansion takes your breath the minute you see it. The elaborate white bay window is so ornately decorated with stained glass windows and ornamental iron work that the long time residents of Savannah have always said it resembles an elegantly decorated 'wedding cake'. This architecture is very unique to Savannah with only a few examples remaining in the Historic District. The French influence is carried throughout the house with vintage French antiques and art. The bedrooms are a resplendent escape and the en-suite bathrooms offer every luxurious accouterments expected from the savvy, refined traveler.
