This quaint historic gem sits inside three different counties: Cherokee, Cobb and Paulding, with around 22,732 residents, who've discovered the perfect blend of small-town charm and big-city convenience. With a median household income of $80,703 and a delightfully diverse citizenry, Acworth attracts families seeking that sweet spot between affordable living, small town charm, and convenient amenities.

What Makes Acworth Special?

From award-winning dining to outdoor adventures, Acworth offers something for everyone. Foodies rave about 1885, Chef Henry's Louisiana Grill, and JD's Bar-B-Que along historic Main Street. The newest addition is Keegan's Irish Pub, which also offers locations in neighboring Kennesaw and Woodstock.

Outdoor enthusiasts flock to Cobblestone Golf Course (rated #1 public course in Georgia by Golf Digest) and the pristine Lake Acworth beaches perfect for swimming, kayaking, boating, and family picnics. Don't miss the charming Historic Downtown District with its Victorian architecture, unique boutiques, and art galleries, or catch a train passing through the historic Acworth Depot.

For family fun, explore Logan Farm Park on "the other side of the tracks," and Cauble Park on the shores of Lake Acworth, featuring playgrounds, pavilions, picnic areas, and sandy beaches, which the public can access for a small fee (if driving in from another area). History buffs will love the Collins Avenue Historic District with its collection of late nineteenth-century Victorian-era houses and early twentieth-century Craftsman-style bungalows.

Acworth's real estate market has been riding waves smoother than Lake Allatoona on a calm Sunday! With median home prices around $393,000-$411,000 (depending on the source), you're getting incredible bang for your buck compared to some of its pricier neighbors. The market here has shown steady appreciation, with homes up 9.2% year-over-year and selling in about 34 days. Properties offer everything from lakefront luxury estates to cozy starter homes perfect for first-time buyers.

Whether you're dreaming of drinking your morning coffee with lake views, or seeking a solid investment property to fix and flip to build generational wealth, Acworth delivers that rare combination of affordability and appreciation potential that makes both buyers and sellers do a happy dance!
