Step back in time to the prosperous and beautiful port city of Savannah where you'll visit the grand home of the the most wealthy man in town, Andrew Low.
Low came to Savannah from his native Scotland at age 16 and worked at his uncle's cotton firm. He soon became a partner and then later took over the company after his uncle died. Low soon had the home built and in 1849 he and his family moved in.
The three story home is designed in Italian style. The first story is below street level and is surrounded by a dry moat. The interior of the home is elegantly decorated featuring many different rooms looking the way they would have back then. You'll find parlors with rosewood furniture and French porcelain, massive mahogany beds with armoires, large windows, and luxurious antiques which add grandeur to the home. There is even a 500 gallon cistern in the attic used for piping water to the bathing room and kitchen. Many famous guests are said to have spent time at the home including General Robert E. Lee. The Andrew Low House is a beautiful reminder of days gone by.
