A 19th-Century Savannah Mansion With Film and Literary Ties Can Be Yours for $4.3 Million
Midnight in the Garden of Good and Evil, the 1994 bestseller written by John Berendt, was turned into the Clint Eastwood-directed 1997 film and is set to debut as a Broadway musical this year. Fans, then, may be interested to hear that a Savannah home associated with the novel is now up for sale for $4.3 million. The five-bedroom, four-bath Federal-style abode was originally built back in 1821 by the merchant John Hunter and once served as the home of attorney-turned-musician Joe Odom, one of the true-crime tome's main characters. The current owner did a complete restoration of the historic dwelling as well as its one-bedroom, one-bath carriage house. Elaine Seabolt at Seabolt Real Estate holds the listing.

Many modern touches have been added to the interior spaces, but the original mahogany stair rail, plaster, and woodwork remain in place. And throughout, classical moldings complement the original grey marble mantles along with six-panel doors and triple sash windows. The chef's kitchen is updated with dove grey custom cabinetry and high-end appliances. A cozy seating area adjoins the space. A private primary suite is found on the second floor, with a decorative fireplace, while the garden level has been converted into a secondary living space, with a full kitchen and Belgium bluestone floors. Outside, there's a covered seating area and a tucked-away courtyard. The carriage house has two parking spots on the ground floor; balconies in the well-appointed second-floor apartment look out over the courtyard. Savannah isn't known for flashy, multimillion-dollar properties; rather, the genteel Georgia city is dotted with elegant homes filled with history and character.
