Looking for privacy, large 2 Acre lot, national park proximity? Look no further! This lovely, custom home in a storybook setting was built in 1984 by Jim McCloud & has been well-maintained & thoughtfully updated. It was designed to take full advantage of the views & serenity afforded by the adjacent Kennesaw Mtn Nat'l Battlefield Park. Features include 4 BR and 2.5 Baths, home office adjoining the primary bedroom, ample closets & spaces to entertain. Three fireplaces and a delightful screened porch for enjoying your morning coffee or evening cocktail are highlights! The porch's location, accessible from the dining room and the keeping room, allows for a great flow. The keeping room, breakfast room and living room have an abundance of natural light and views of the wooded backyard. The back porch is the perfect spot to read the paper or unwind after a long day and is reminiscent of a mountain retreat. The beautiful kitchen has custom cabinets, granite countertops and an island for additional counterspace. The garage's current configuration for one car and rec room space could be converted back to a traditional garage. There is a back staircase connecting the home office to the garage. Recent updates include new upstairs HVAC system, new driveway lights, new gutters, and a new garage door. Zoned schools include West Side Elementary, MSGA, MMS and MHS. Hardage Drive, one of the quietest streets in the city, is the unique combination of a rural feel yet convenient to retail and dining options. On the market for the first time, this home is ready to welcome its next owners!
