Three of the five highest-priced home sales reported in Rome & Northwest Georgia for the week ending November 1, 2026, were in Rome, and the other two were in Taylorsville and Rockmart. Together the five sold for $4.51 million.
Two of the homes were finished this year, and two date from 2005. Toles, Temple & Wright, Inc. listed three of the five, including the top two.
No. 1 — $1,500,000 · 9 Belle Meade Dr SW, Rome, Georgia
The top sale of the week is a European-inspired estate in Horseleg Plantation, built in 2005 of brick on all four sides, painted white and finished with turret details. It sold for $1,500,000. The home rises three stories and has 10,659 square feet, seven bedrooms, seven full baths and two half baths, and six fireplaces, on a level, private lot of 0.63 acres.
A two-story foyer with marble floors and a curving staircase opens the home. Ceilings reach ten feet, doors stand eight feet tall, and the Brazilian pine and walnut floors have been refinished. In the great room the ceiling climbs to 17 feet under exposed beams, with a limestone fireplace mantel and tall windows looking out over the grounds. The fully renovated kitchen opens onto that room and has two islands, marble counters with a marble backsplash, Viking double ovens with six burners and a walk-in pantry. In the casual dining area, a curved wall of windows looks out to the pool.
The main level also has a formal dining room that seats twelve or more, a music room, a study with a fireplace and a scullery bar with mirrored cabinetry, an ice maker and a sink. The primary suite is on this level as well, with its own fireplace, a custom dressing room and a bath with a glass-walled marble shower and a freestanding soaking tub. The other bedrooms are upstairs, along with a guest apartment that has a separate living area and its own stair to the garage.
The full lower level opens to the outdoors and has a second kitchen, a marble bar with an antique glass backsplash and a 120-inch video wall. Outside are more than 1,000 square feet of covered porches: an upper outdoor living room with a fireplace and a television, and a lower veranda with a grilling station and fire features. The oversized pool has a tanning ledge and built-in bar seating and steps out to a broad stone terrace. The property last sold for $660,000 in 2019.

The rear deck has been rebuilt and enlarged, and a new front porch is finished in Trex decking. Landscaped grounds surround the home and pool.

In Rockmart, a newly built one-story farmhouse on 23.37 acres sold for $575,000. The land is level and private, with pasture and a barn, and a creek runs along its back edge. A freshly cleared trail leads to the rear acreage, where a food plot for wildlife is planned, and an outdoor firepit has been added near the home. There is no homeowners association, and Rockmart, Cedartown, Villa Rica and Bremen are each a few minutes away.
A wraparound porch circles the home, which has three bedrooms and two bathrooms on a split plan. The vaulted family room centers on a custom shiplap fireplace, and the open kitchen has a large island, granite counters, shaker cabinets, a farmhouse sink and a custom vent hood. The owner’s suite has a walk-in closet and a bath with double vanities and an oversized tile shower, while the two other bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bath.
