The flowers are blooming and life is returning to normal in the wonderful historic Athens Ga. Come and stay at the Mure House.
Built in 1893 she has hosted many families and even was the founding home for UGA's FIJI fraternity. Please enjoy exploring our photos.
Look for our other listings accessible from our profile. We have four rooms in total (Red, Blue, Green and Gold). The Gold room also includes a private kitchen. Read all about the Mure House at iliveinathens.com.

The space
Clean is the word at the Mure House. We want to you feel totally comfortable in a clean and sanitized room. So, we wash not just the sheets, but the blankets, comforter and mattress pads between each visit.

Perfect place for your Game Day visit - you can walk to the stadium from here, yes it is a huff but certainly walkable and I have done it many times with my kids. Plus, you can relax on the front porch and watch all the game day traffic walking or driving down Prince Ave.

Come early and breath in Athens. Your room is situated on the border of the Cobham historic district and Normal Town/Boulevard. You are just a few short blocks away from Athens legendary restaurants such as The White Tiger, The Grit, Maepole, Ike and Janes, Agua Linda, HiLo, Automatic Pizza, Taqueria Del Sol, Half Shepherds, Sea Bear, Viva and many more . You are also just a short walk to get to the Foundary, Normal Town Bar and downtown Athens. Sips or Hendershots coffee shops/bars are a few short blocks away. The best steaming hot and bacon smelling breakfast joints are just around the corner. Walk to Ike and Jane's for hot breakfast sandwiches and fresh pastries, the Bread Basket for awesome country biscuits and breakfast plates, Dunkin Donuts and of course Krystal's with a fresh 3 shelled-egg, 2 pieces of bacon, 2 pieces of toast and grits all for $5.00 (the home owners favorite). Want a massage or spa treatment? 2 blocks away is the Urban Sanctuary or, a little bit further of a walk is the Foundary. You can easily walk to downtown venues like the Melting Pot, Classic Center, 40 Watts, Creature Comforts Brewery or the Georgia Theatre and walk or Uber back home.

Guest access
There are two rooms that can be rented out separately (search for the Red Room listing).

A full-bath is located right outside the bedroom door, nestled into a quiet private corner.

The room has a mini-fridge, microwave and Keurig.

Feel free to lounge on the front porch, plenty of seating, or enjoy the porch swing. There is also seating available on the upper back porch.

During your stay
I live in the servant quarters of the house and my law office occupies one of the rooms on the first floor. So, I am generally available to answer questions, give directions or otherwise assist the guests.

Other things to note
All of the rooms are on the second floor and there is no elevator.
