Situated at 773 Frank Kirk Road in Kennesaw, Georgia this 8+/- acre property is rich with history and only about 2.5 miles from Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park. The original 1885 Frank Kirk farmhouse that occupies 400+/- square feet was fully restored in 1982. A 5,000+/- sq. ft. addition was added in 2004 to incorporate an energy-efficient design model. With Atlanta only 30 miles south and convenient retail shopping only 2.5 miles away at the Avenue at West Cobb, this is rare real estate in the heart of one of Atlanta’s most beloved suburbs.
A wraparound porch borders three sides of the home and allows for comfortable viewpoints in all directions and room for all of the rocking chairs and porch swings you could possibly want. Inside, wood beams hang exposed beneath cathedral ceilings flanked by wood paneling and beautiful hardwood floors sprawl out across the foot plane. The living spaces rest in between.
An open main level features spacious rooms made even more grand by the intricate and artful design of the beams that seem to mimic a forest that hangs upside down from the peaks overhead. In the middle of it all, a massive stone fireplace separates the family room from the kitchen and dining, while tying it together at the same time. The fireplace also provides a shared, central heat source to all the surrounding spaces.
The quintessential farmhouse kitchen features glass-pane cabinets, a freestanding range, and butcher-block counters and breakfast bar. Adjacent to the kitchen is a cozy eating space that opens to the porch. More gathering spots of all shapes and sizes are situated around the main level which gives the home a lodge-style ambiance. Period fireplace designs and claw foot bathtubs are a few of the many conversation starters that occupy this interesting home.
The master bedroom is reminiscent of the original period of the farmhouse with an antique fireplace that showcases an exposed brick frame. The master suite and additional bedrooms sit off a community lounging space where residents and guests can come together in a truly unique experience. In many ways, the layout of this house is much like that of a bed and breakfast structure.
Loft spaces can be found around the home accessible via staircases and catwalks throughout the floor plan. These rooms range from small and intimate to spacious and airy with a second full living suite built into the loft-styled floor plan.
Larger-than-life trees and green fields that seem to have just been freshly rolled out and cultivated gardens surround the home creating a truly once-in-a-lifetime living experience. This property implores a buyer who will appreciate its longstanding loyalty while at the same time indulge in all its modern-day luxuries. Esteemed and respected will be the descriptive words used to describe the one who puts down roots at 773 Frank Kirk Road in Kennesaw, Georgia.
