The Historic Stone Home is lovingly preserved maintaining the historic charm of the Stone Family’s restoration and rehabilitations over the years. Nestled among beautiful oak trees in a coastal haven alive with wildlife, it is a majestic place, both timeless and serene. The home was built in 1893, three years after the founding of its neighbor, Georgia State Industrial College, now Savannah State University. In 1933, Percy Stone purchased this homestead, rooting his family and expanding his innovative legacy in agriculture. Harriet and Percy Stone were faculty members of Savannah State University and advocates of educational advancement. Today, the home is nominated to become listed on the National Register of Historic Places for the contributions of Percy H. Stone, Harriet P. Stone, Monroe N. Work, Alma S. Williams, and the Stone Family.
