The James Mills House is a home in Savannah, Georgia, United States. It is located in the southeastern tything block of Oglethorpe Square and was built in 1855.[1] It is part of the Savannah Historic District,[1] and was built for James G. Mills, a commission merchant and factor. As of 1860, his office was at 200 Bay Street.[2]
Historic Savannah Foundation saved the property from demolition around a century after its construction. In a survey for the foundation, Mary Lane Morrison found the building to be of significant status.[3]
It is a detached sidehall townhouse, as is its neighbor to the west at 201–203 East York Street. It has a piazza on its eastern side.[4]
