Local nameMargaret Mitchell House
LocationAtlanta, United States

The Margaret Mitchell House is an historic house museum located in Atlanta, Georgia. The structure was the home of author Margaret Mitchell. It is located in Midtown, at 979 Crescent Avenue. Constructed by Cornelius J. Sheehan as a single-family residence in a then-fashionable section of residential Peachtree Street, the building's original address was 806 Peachtree Street. The house was known as the Crescent Apartments when Mitchell and her husband lived in Apt. 1 on the ground floor from 1925 to 1932. While living there, Mitchell wrote the bulk of her Pulitzer Prize-winning novel, Gone with the Wind.The house now contains a visitor center, and a portion of the museum is wholly devoted to the making of the 1939 film based on the book.

The house is listed on the National Register of Historic Places and is also designated as an historic building by the City of Atlanta.
