Historic home in Downtown Augusta GA. 5.2 miles from Masters.
The Purple Martin is keeping it funky in Historic Downtown Augusta, GA. This old beauty has high ceilings and lots of legroom. The immediate area is comprised of: a few homes, a little light industrial business (nothing noisy), offices, and an art institute. There’s an automatic gate that leads into a large yard, big enough to park your cars and a boat. The new kitchen is large and well equipped for making meals. There are two living rooms, each with a smart TV (three tvs in total). Upstairs has a kitchenette, two bedrooms, a hall bathroom , one living room and one ensuite living area. Downstairs has one bedroom with a connected living room, a hall bathroom, dining room, kitchen and laundry room. Every bedroom has a closet, dresser, and bedside lamps that can charge your phone. Most of the house still has the original hardwood floors and wood trim from the 1890s. New bathrooms with lots of natural light. It’s a great place to stay if you want to experience downtown local flavor. Bring your bike and ride the Augusta Canal Trails. Take a short walk and sample local beer at the Savanna River Brewing Company. This home is in a very convenient location for the medical complex, Peach Jam, Iron Man, and Arts in the Heart Festival.

Beautiful home. Amy is awesome. Place is very clean, and a great choice for a family gathering or any kind of get together. We would definitely stay here again and plan to since my son will be in Augusta for several more years. Thank you Amy!
Amazing location! We will definitely stay here again. Each bedroom had its own sitting/lounge area and the kitchen/dining area was large enough to accommodate my extended family. With a short walk to the downtown Augusta area, it’s the perfect place to stay!
We had a wonderful stay at this beautiful home. The communication with Amy was great. The house was spotless. I can't get over how beautiful and well done this house was. Thank you!
Very comfortable. With the exception of hearing the sound of a train passing by, very quiet area. House was very clean and spacious. Space for gathering and space for self space.

Thank you Evelyn. I’m so glad you enjoyed the space!
Luckily the tracks don’t see heavy use.
Want to stay in a very secure and maintained house? Then, this one is attractively done.One mile from restaurant row and few more to the Masters. Just refurbished and done nicely with a lot of personal amenities for guests. Enjoyed!

We want The Purple Martin to be a place we’d like to stay ourselves. Thanks for noticing the details!
Augusta is experiencing a revival and this property is one of the gems in that process. A substantial building of another time that has been carefully preserved and restored for new useful purposes. Kitchen and bathrooms are brand new. Sleeping suites are carefully reconsidered allowing family or friends to have their own rooms that contain sleeping quarters plus areas for winding down and relaxing. Common areas for food preparation and dining are able to provide room for small to large groups. Adequate space to prepare meals together or separately. Once the garden is developed further and I think there are plans to do that, the outside will be a delightful place to sit and relax also. If I were to return to Augusta I would choose this gem to stay at again. My first evening I walked to Luigi’s for dinner. Large groups of families and friends were there enjoying one another and the great food.

I’m glad you enjoyed the separate living areas! It’s nice to have a space to visit that isn’t where you sleep. I’ll work on that garden for you Ron!
