Our first cottage to be featured on the Cottage of the Week is an especially adorable home in Ardsley Park: (http://www.ardsleyparknews.com/). The Tudor styling of this home with its half timbering, sloping roofline, and curved doorway is extremely charming and the curb appeal is exceptional.
Inside, the cottage there is a generous center hall with period lighting that leads to two of the bedrooms at the rear of the home. As is custom, the two rear bedrooms are separated by a Jack and Jill bathroom whose tub was just reglazed and regrouted by my cousin, Garner Creel, who owns the Grout Medic of Savannah, http://www.thegroutmedic.com/savannah-ga.html. 
The living room has a cozy fireplace, five gorgeous windows, and french doors that lead to the dining room. Of course there is another bedroom with a master bathroom complete with a step-down shower. I had never seen bathrooms like this until I moved to Savannah and now I adore them.
The cottage was built in 1930 and was renovated in 2002 by some of Garner's friends. The kitchen has been fully updated and includes some very alluring features like an eat-in area with built-in window seat, island, tons of stoarge and workspace, not to mention stainless appliances and corian countertops. Designer lighting and tile completes the picture. Usually I try and appreciate a cottage's small but quaint kitchens but after being inside this home, I have decided that I must have a kitchen like this. Seriously, it is gorgeous.Now that I have given myself over to all that is new and shiny, I must give props to the owners (present and past) of this home. It has obviously been loved and well taken care of. The windows are in especially good shape, the masonry fireplace and chimney appear to be sound, and the hardwoods are in perfect shape. All in all, it is a very livable cottage that has remained true to its roots.
This home is being marketed by the deVegter Group of Keller Williams of Savannah Downtown: http://www.devegtergroup.com/.
