Historic 1920’s Craftsman style 3 bed, 2 bath home on 1 acre within walking distance to beautiful downtown Ball Ground. This home has been updated without disturbing its historic charm. Notice the white, marble steps and capstones on the front of the house. Enter the home through an elegant French door into the large parlor with original heart-pine floors, crown molding, elegant brick fireplace w/gas logs, and 9 ft ceilings. From here, double French doors lead to the screened porch. (This home has 3 porches). Continue into the oversized dining room with large bay window, crown molding, and built-in bookcases. The kitchen has been updated with stainless steel appliances, current lighting, granite counter tops, updated cabinets, pantry, and has its original heart-pine floors, walls, and ceiling. The Master on main is oversized with lots of natural light, crown molding and picture frame molding. The Master opens to an oversized bath that has been remodeled with a double vanity that has a granite counter top, updated plumbing fixtures, current lighting, and a large garden tub. The guest bath down the hall has also been remodeled with new vanity, quartz counter top, current lighting, and plumbing fixtures. There’s a large laundry room that could be used for office, exercise, or bonus room. Step from here onto the large, raised patio with brick railing that overlooks the fenced yard with fruit and nut trees. The stairs from the front parlor lead to the large upper bedroom that would be a great separate space for a teen. This home has its original door hardware with glass doorknobs, classic “3 over 1” windows, and all heart pine floors. The HVAC was replaced in 2025, electrical and plumbing updated in 2016, and spray foam attic insulation in 2024. Basement/crawlspace has plenty of room for workbench, lots of storage, and was encapsulated in 2024. Downtown Ball Ground has recently come to life with great shops, restaurants, park, walking trails, activities, and festivals all with quick access to the interstate for ease of commute. You’ll love this home!
