Space

The historic Murphy House, built in the 1820s for three “spinster” sisters, later became the home of French artist Murphy, who lived here for nearly 100 years. Many of his original paintings still adorn the foyer today.
Enter your unit through the main entrance on the parlor level and ascend the staircase to the second floor. Step into a fully renovated apartment featuring ample space, modern amenities, and stylish décor, anchored by refinished original hardwood floors and historic touches.
The upgraded kitchen boasts new appliances, fresh white quartz countertops, and ample cabinet space. A small dining table set for four complements the fully appointed kitchen, equipped with everything you need to cook during your stay, including pots, pans, dishware, utensils, and more. A Keurig is ready to brew your morning coffee.
Off the kitchen is a spacious living area with modern furniture, creating a chic vibe while offering ample comfort. Natural light floods the room through surrounding windows. A smart TV is ready for streaming your favorite entertainment. The sofa pulls out into a queen mattress, accommodating a third or fourth guest.
The bedroom has two entrances, one from the living room and one from the kitchen hallway. A new queen mattress, crisp linens, and plush pillows ensure a restful night's sleep. Bench seating by the window offers a cozy reading nook.
Across the hallway from the bedroom is the unit’s single bathroom, featuring a single vanity and a low-entry shower. Custom tile work adds a fresh touch to the space. Essentials like toilet paper, towels, shampoo, body wash, and a hairdryer are provided.
The Murphy House also offers a common washer and dryer on the first floor, free for your use.

The Neighborhood

Looking to be right in the heart of everything downtown Savannah has to offer? The Murphy House Hideaway sits on the edge of the famed Chippewa Square and serves as Savannah’s centerpiece square, featuring a statue of the city’s founder, James Oglethorpe.
You can immerse yourself in Savannah's history and culture with a short stroll from your door. History abounds with sites like Harper Fowlkes House, Savannah Theatre, Telfair Museums, Beach Institute of African American Culture, and many more. Enjoy one of our favorite casual restaurants, Fire Street Food, as your neighbor, featuring excellent Asian-American dishes with a modern flare.
Excite your taste buds with the many excellent restaurants all a stone’s throw from the apartment. Grab incredible southern dishes at the highly-rated Mrs. Wilkes Dining Room. Craving a diner? Check out Clary’s Café. Want your favorite vegan dish? Fox and Fig Café is minutes away. Jumpstart your hunger by taking a slightly longer 16-minute trip to Savannah River Street for more incredible dining like The Lady & Sons, Vic’s on the River, The Olde Pink House, and Treylor Park.
Fancy a pint? Stop into Six Pence Pub, a British-inspired pub just minutes down Liberty Street. Looking for that small dive bar? Check out The Original Pinkie Masters for a cash-only bar with great deals and incredible staff. Need the perfect cocktail? Slide over to the Artillery Bar, a sophisticated speakeasy in a restored armory with imaginative cocktails and an extensive bourbon list. Want to enjoy your drinks in a funky, art-inspired bar/restaurant? Check out Savoy Society. A homey bar/restaurant where pups are even welcomed!
Looking to do some local shopping or curb that sweet tooth? Take the short walk to the historic City Market and enjoy four blocks of storefronts and restaurants, including Savannah’s Candy Kitchen, The Little Crown by Pie Society, and Tree House Savannah, an incredible spot with a rooftop balcony, live music, and more. All right in the City Market!
Want to see it all at once while riding or biking? We are minutes from Old Town Trolley Tours of Savannah and Savannah Bike Tours.

Getting around

Are you driving into town? There are no designated spaces but there is paid street parking directly available outside the unit (subject to availability). Still, you can park your vehicle at the Liberty Parking deck just minutes away and enjoy easy transit and walking for the remainder of your stay! Costs change but are roughly $7-15/day depending on day of week.
Circling the downtown, you will see Old Town Trolleys, a great way to get around. Get in touch with us to receive your DISCOUNTED ticket. A free trolley-style City transport bus called the "DOT Shuttle" also picks up and will make a loop around the Historic District. The closest stop for this one is just a block down the street at the corner of Drayton & Perry!
Want more options? Download the city’s local version of Uber called “The Downtowner.” Simply download the app, and they will pick you up for free!

Guest Access

The entire apartment is setup for you use! We have a pullout couch in the living room that you can pull out if you choose, and provide sheets and blankets for it.
You must walk up the main staircase out front to the Parlor level, and then another set of stairs inside to get to your floor.

House Rules Desc

Absolutely no animals are permitted whatsoever. Please do not use our linens/towels to wipe off makeup or excessive dirt, we offer makeup wipes and paper towels for these reasons. Stained linens may result in a linen fee of up to $50 per item. Please treat the home as your own and let us know if anything breaks. We are much more empathetic to those who are honest and upfront with us :) Do not flush ANY thing other than toilet paper down the toilets ("flushable" wet wipes are not permitted either). If we have to call an emergency plumber and find that the cause of a blockage is due to something unpermitted being flushed, you will be subject to a $250 fee.

Other things to note

This is in a historic home with multiple apartments and some having long-term tenants in place, so please be respectful to your neighbors and keep noise to a minimum especially from 10PM - 7AM. Always lock the main door when you leave.
You must walk up the main staircase out front to the Parlor level, and then another set of stairs inside to get to your floor.

This place was 100% what we hoped it would be for our St Patrick Day holiday. Host was quick to respond when we had an issue getting in the front door initially then followed up later to make sure all was resolved and in order. We absolutely hope to be back in this place next year!

Fantastic location right in the heart of all the action downtown. The loft is spacious yet cozy and we really enjoyed having a little extra room to spread out. The neighborhood is charming but a bit noisy at nighttime. Nothing a pair of earplugs or earbuds can’t fix. Brandon & Chase communicated well and we would definitely stay here again on our next trip to Savannah.

Beautiful place in the perfect location to enjoy Savannah! We parked the vehicle when we arrived and didn’t need it again until it was time to check-out. The Airbnb had everything we needed, thoughtfully provided. Super clean and easy check-in and out.

We had a wonderful stay in this beautiful Savannah Airbnb. It is truly in the center of everything, and the location could not be better, within walking distance to so many sights, with a great coffee shop just around the corner and several excellent restaurants nearby. Brandon and Chase thoughtfully provided a book of restaurant recommendations, and we tried several of them without a single disappointment. They kindly reached out to check in and make sure we had everything we needed as well. nnThe place itself was even more beautiful than the photos, very spacious and equipped with everything we needed for a comfortable stay. It also had that classic Savannah charm that made the experience feel special and authentic, perfectly fitting the character of the city. We were grateful to have wonderful weather during Christmas week, which made our stay even more memorable. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone visiting Savannah.

Beautiful place located in the middle of everything. Love the history of these old carriage houses and this one hits the mark. Very responsive to any needs and will be back again next year. Thanks again for a wonderful stay.
