Renovated Bungalow in Kirkwood is so Fresh, so Green

Kermit may have thought it was a drag being green, but this 1925 Craftsman bungalow in Kirkwood makes it look pretty straightforward. With three bedrooms and two bathrooms, the fully renovated home has tall ceilings and hardwoods throughout. While the size isn't huge (1,140 square feet), the bathrooms are stark and the bedrooms small, the lush, flat backyard and deck are perfect for summertime shenanigans. Just a few blocks from the Kirkwood retail district and practically surrounded by parks, the location ain't too bad either. And while it doesn't stand out like flashy sparkles on the water or stars in the sky, listed for $265,000, maybe this green home is enough to get Kermit (and buyers in the market for cozier old houses) to stop singing the Atlanta-is-way-too-expensive-now blues.
