Space

The historic Murphy House, built in the 1820s for three "spinster" sisters, later became the long-time residence of French artist Murphy. His original paintings still hang in the foyer today. Enter your unit through the main entrance on the parlor level and ascend the staircase to the second floor, where you'll find a thoughtfully designed space combining kitchen, living, and bedroom into one seamless layout.
The single-wall kitchen is fully equipped with new appliances, cookware, utensils, and dishware, perfect for brewing morning coffee or preparing meals.

Stylish accents and throw-blankets make for a comfortable evening after a day of exploring the city.
Towards the back of the unit, a spacious enclave houses a new queen mattress with crisp linens and plush pillows. Across the space is an armoire for ample storage, and a dedicated workspace for remote work.
The bathroom, located at the back of the unit is newly finished with custom tile, a single vanity, a low-entry shower, and an all-in-one washer and dryer, making it perfect for extended stays. The bathroom is equipped with all the essentials including towels, toilet paper, shampoo, body wash, and a hair dryer.

Great stay! Perfect location, right in the middle of downtown. 12 min walk to River St and 12 min walk to Forsyth park. A booklet of recommendations were on a table to help guide! Only thing to take note of, there is an apartment right next door and the sound travels through the walls. (Complimentary ear plugs were provided ) Street parking was very simple and easy!

We had a great stay at Brandon and Chase’s place in Savannah this weekend. The apartment is perfectly located in the heart of the Historic District an amazing location with easy walking access to downtown, restaurants, shops, and everything you’d want to see in historic Savannah. The apartment itself was very nice, cute, and comfortable, and being able to park right in front was a huge bonus. The only issue we experienced was that the combo washer/dryer didn’t work properly, but aside from that, everything was excellent. Overall, it was a great stay and we’d absolutely recommend this place. Thank you

Place was great and in a fantastic location! Super walkable to everything you could need. Had a minor issue due to an accident the people upstairs had, but Brandon was super responsive and helpful and of course it was in not way the fault of the rental itself.

The location is perfect for those without a car. Super walkable to river and Forsythe park. We loved having the coffee shop and Fire Street Food nearby. Both put out great food. There was regular noise from the neighbors above, but beyond that the place was great. Served all of our needs for the trip!

Overall, we had a great stay here! The location was pretty much unbeatable and on one of the most beautiful and peaceful squares in the city. We could walk everywhere from here. The inside was clean and cozy and had everything we needed. There were a few minor issues we had. The noise from the people walking around in the unit above was very loud late into the night. Also, the shower has some issues leaking out onto the floor. Despite these problems, we would stay here again!

Love the central location and walkability of this unit. The unit's decor is fresh and fun. The apartment is clean and everything is in working order. You for sure will want to download the Savannah parking app. Which I love as you can add 15 minute increments from your phone. I wish Los Angeles offered a parking app like Savannah's. I would definitely stay here again.
