This spacious one-story home on a lovely flat 1-acre lot has a storied history and an even brighter future for the next family to call home! Designed by notable architect Clem Ford and built in 1983 for famed local historian Franklin Garrett, the home features a large footprint, 10′ high ceilings and a walk-up attic for easy expansion!
The front and rear of the home are pleasingly symmetrical thanks to timeless classical architecture with 3 original bedrooms and full baths plus one half bath. The arrangement of the kitchen open to keeping room, oversized dining room, central hall and family room provide interchangeable flexibility to suit your needs. The left wing of the home includes Franklin Garret’s original office/ writing room and an impressive 18’x30′ paneled library/den. The basement has only a small utility room, the balance of the footprint is a crawlspace with poured concrete flooring. A 2nd floor/attic provides an opportunity to add 3-4 bedrooms using dormers, or take the roof off and build a full 2nd floor if needed! The original blueprints are available for planning purposes.
The spirit of Buckhead heads forward. This is the way it has been, and perhaps this is the way it will always be. The spirit of Buckhead points forward. You see it in the way we work, and you see it in the way we play. The reach is always extending further. The search is for excellence and beauty and grace and vibrancy.
We are a community of individuals. We are diverse, we are dynamic, and we are discerning. We are builders. We are connected to one another with a common bond. A common dream. A common quest. Pointing life in one direction. Forward.
