The Max and Emma Sue McRae House in McRae, Georgia is a Classical Revival-style house built in 1897 which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.

It was built in anticipation of the wedding of Max McRae (d.1951)[note 1] and Emma Sue Griffith (1875-1972). The couple married in 1898 and moved into the home.[2]

It is located at 405 S. Second Ave. in McRae in Telfair County, Georgia. The listing included two other contributing buildings: an early 1900s gardening shed and a 1930s garage. It also included a non-contributing modern swimming pool.[2]
