Isle of Hope is just seven miles from downtown Savannah, offering retreat from the city while still being conveniently located near the heart of Savannah’s cultural, musical and artistic amenities 113 Holcomb is nestled in the heart of Isle of Hope’s Nationally Registered Historic District, two blocks from the marina and a hope, skip and jump from the neighborhood churches, elementary school, community pool and club. Nature’s beauty, community pride and neighborliness are plentiful in this idyllic haven. The main house was built circa 1935. Local lore holds that the home was once a hunting lodge. The interior has wide planked pine floors, two bedrooms, one bath and an eat-in kitchen. The guest cottage is approximately six hundred square feet with a kitchen and living area, one bedroom and full bath. There are six additional buildings of varying size. The largest can easily be made into a third cottage or used as a hammock house or artist studio. A small whimsical storage building was, in 1935, the outhouse. The laundry building is equipped with connections for two washer and dryers. The grounds are intimate, beautiful and filled with mysteries. The surrounding stone walls were ballasts from ships that arrived in the port of Savannah. Ballast stones were also used to create the tranquil koi pond. Disconnected iron rails found near the guest house drive are thought to be remnants of the old trolley line to Barbee’s Pavilion. This property offers many possibilities: home, artist enclave, summer retreat or family compound.
