Property description
Luxury living reaches its apex at The Reiner House, an exquisite International Style architectural masterpiece that's perfectly positioned on a quadruple lot in Savannah's Ardsley Park neighborhood. Featured in Architectural Digest and Vogue, this exceptional 4 BR/3.5 BA home was designed in 1947 by legendary architect Cletus Bergen for Savannah business owner Larry Reiner and includes original mid-century modern details as well as thoughtful renovations designed for contemporary living. Known as the Dean of Architecture of Savannah, Cletus designed iconic local landmarks, including the Drayton Arms/Drayton Tower building on Liberty Street.

This spectacular Ardsley Park residence was designed in the International Style, which grew out of the work of a small group of brilliant architects in the 1920s, including Walter Gropius, Ludwig Mies van der Rohe, Le Corbusier, Richard Neutra and Philip Johnson. The owner has meticulously restored original details including steel casement windows and hardware, plaster walls with dramatic curves, a sunken dining room with silver-leaf dome ceiling, bathrooms with original porcelain fixtures and Vitrolite glass-tiled walls and a cantilevered second story above an enclosed loggia. Vogue describes the stylish living room with large, curved bay windows and panoramic views as a physical manifestation of modern Southern hospitality with its warm, chic charm.

This Ardsley Park treasure features a gorgeous layout with great flow for entertaining or relaxing, plus the Southern exposure provides beautiful natural light. The renovated chef's kitchen features stainless steel countertops, a commercial-grade gas stove, built-in banquette seating and premium appliances. The garage can be modified as a primary suite on the main level. A den/library provides beautiful natural light plus a bonus room off the kitchen is ideal for a playroom, exercise room or family room.

Upstairs, a stunning primary suite offers walk-in closets, laundry, vintage lighting, soaking tub and marble countertops. Two additional bedrooms share a large jack-and-jill bath. Enjoy ample off-street parking and a convenient midtown location with easy access to downtown Savannah, the Truman Parkway, I-16 and the city's best dining, shopping and activities.
