About this home
Every once in a while, you come across a life-changing home... Founder’s Manor isn’t just a showstopper, it’s a ready-to-enjoy estate with luxury updates, versatile functionality, and space to dream big. Perched atop 2.1 private acres above the charming town square of Adairsville, this fully furnished, 6-bed, 6-full, 2-half bath home spans approximately 6,000 square feet and has been meticulously reimagined to blend grandeur with go-anywhere potential. Wedding venue, BnB, event/retreat space or exquisite personal residence, it’s all in play.
Inside, the layout is as functional as it is beautiful. A sweeping 2-story foyer welcomes you into a series of richly appointed rooms, from the formal parlor and pocket-doored dining room to the oversized great room, nicknamed Founder’s Hall, that anchors the main level. In 2022, this dramatic space was completely transformed with a chef’s kitchen designed to support anything from family dinners to full-scale events.
Quartzite countertops stretch across an oversized island with seating for nine. A six-burner gas range with griddle is flanked by custom cabinetry, dual spice rollouts, and a concealed dishwasher. A second hidden cleaning station with its own dishwasher & large stainless sink keeps the mess out of sight. Tucked just behind are a walk-in dry pantry, a walk-in cooler with freezer, and another under-counter fridge, all designed for effortless hosting and serious culinary use.
Six en suite bedrooms make this home ideal for extended-stay guests or private suites. Two are on the main level, while four, including a private wing with its own stair, petite kitchen and 1.5 baths are upstairs. This flexible wing can be used as a guest apartment, in-law suite, or owner’s quarters if the home is used as a BnB or venue. A small upstairs kitchen offers incredible views, an idyllic spot for morning coffee or an end-of-day wind-down.
Founder’s Hall isn’t just a wow moment it’s a true indoor/outdoor hub, with double doors leading to elevated porches and sweeping views over the manicured grounds. The back lawn includes a white picket-fenced organic garden and dedicated ceremony areas framed by a wooden arch, pergola, and antique carriage. Nearly 40 parking spaces onsite, and more with arrangements, make large events simple. Includes ADA ramp & bathroom for convenience.
Looking for long-term expansion? The attic, with its soaring ceilings and natural light, is a blank canvas. The detached structure out back could easily be converted into guest or caretaker quarters, or even a full commercial prep kitchen.
Everything’s ready for you to hit the ground running. The property includes upscale furnishings and full venue inventory: gold Chiavari and white resin chairs (100+), real porcelain & glassware place settings for 100+, servingware, tables, linens, holiday decor, and more. And 2 separate washer and dryer closets.
Beyond the impressive functionality, Founder’s Manor has a story to tell. Built circa 1840 by Adairsville’s founder, the home sits on what was once the highest point in town. It's rumored to be connected to an old cave system that carried music through underground tunnels, and an actual cave entrance still exists on the property. The home’s most prominent former resident was Dr. J.P. Bowdoin—mayor, physician, banker, and civic pioneer. His mark lives on in the town and in the Masonic inscription still visible above the front entry: “A.L. ’09”—Latin for Year of the Light.
Zoned residential, with a special use permit already in place for BnB and event use, the property allows you to operate immediately while retaining access to traditional mortgage options. Located just five minutes from I-75 and 13 minutes from Barnsley Resort, it’s easy to access from both Atlanta and Chattanooga but feels like a world apart.
Whether you’re building a business, a legacy, or simply seeking a forever home with room to live boldly, Founder’s Manor is ready to meet the moment.
