This Alabama Registered Historic Home/Event Venue, known to the community as "The Kirk House", has been owned by the Kirk family since its construction in 1914. The home and 8.9+/- acres are offered for sale to the general public for the first time! Donald Kirk, a mining engineer, designed and constructed "ahead of its time" this 3,852+/-sqft., 5 bedroom, 3.5 bath American-Craftsman style home for his parents, Charles Martin and Mary Harding Kirk. It boasts many of the original features such as the terra cotta tile roof, windows, doors, oak hardwood floors downstairs, pine hardwood floors upstairs, exquisite American Mahogany moldings, hand-crafted solid wood stairwell, and mantels. It also includes a beautiful sun room, formal dining room, sitting room, and open living space upstairs. The beautifully landscaped grounds, amazing oak trees, and timeless treasures like the ivy-covered silo are among the few details that you must see. The Kirk House was also the birth place, home and production studio to the well-renowned ceramic artist, Mary Kirk Kelly. Her approximate 3,824 sqft. production studio studio is detached and adjacent to the main home. It includes a living area, custom designed gas fireplace, full kitchen, 2 bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, 2 half baths, 3 additional rooms, a large bonus/studio space, and a car shelter. For over 23 years, The Kirk House House hosted many events and weddings. The unfurnished basement (where the mechanics of the main home are located) and attic allow for ample storage. The home and studio are situated on 8.99+/- acre parcel (120725000088.002, 1207250000088.000, 1207250000088.004).
