Cobb House

Welcome to The Cobb House, a residence steeped in history and charm, nestled in the heart of Augusta. Originally built in 1916 as the Shirley Hotel, this iconic building was celebrated as “Augusta’s first modern apartment building” and quickly became a beacon of resilience and innovation after a devastating fire in the area.

Designed by the acclaimed architect G. Lloyd Preacher, The Cobb House beautifully marries historic elegance with contemporary sophistication. After a thoughtful renovation in the 1980s, the building was renamed to honor its original principal investor, the legendary baseball player Ty Cobb, who made Augusta his home.

Today, The Cobb House offers a range of beautifully renovated 1 and 2 bedroom apartments, each reflecting the building’s timeless charm. Located in a prime spot, you’ll have easy access to the vibrant attractions of downtown Augusta while enjoying the blend of historic character and modern comfort.

Come discover your new home at The Cobb House—where every apartment is a slice of living history in a fantastic location. We’d love to welcome you!

Cobb House is an apartment located in Richmond County, the 30901 Zip Code, and the Lamar Elementary School, W.S. Hornsby K-8 School, and Johnson Magnet attendance zone.
