Andrew Low House

Andrew Low House is located in Savannah, Georgia. The house was built for Andrew Low and his family on the southwest trust of Lafayette Square. The classically designed house is open for tours allowing visitors to learn more about the history of Andrew Low, his family and this grand house.

The house is important to all Girl Scouts as it was once the home of Juliette Gordon Low who married Andrew Low's son, she was active in the Girl Guides in England and started the Girl Guides in Savannah which went on to become Girl Scouts of America. First meetings were held in the Carriage House and in Juliette's passing she willed the Carriage house to the Girls Scouts of Savannah.

When touring the house which are led by professional docent tour guides, visitors will enter through the sandstone entrance of the house which is guarded by a pair of case iron lions. The house is a three story stucco-over-brick house with the first story set below street level and surrounded by a dry moat.

Visitors will be able to view the furnished parlors, including the formal front parlor which features an upright pianoforte and Grecian couches and chairs. The dining room table is set with French porcelains and the finest silver on the sideboard, the library is a traditional male refuge with a massive secretary and bookcase with titles that would have been housed only in the library of an astute businessman. There are four bedrooms in the house that were used for the adults and a fifth that was used by children.
