Feb. 9, 2011 - PRLog -- Traton Homes, one of Atlanta’s premier builders announced today that it has begun construction on its model home in Rockford Township, its newest Cobb County community. The west Cobb neighborhood is now open for sales and the model home is scheduled to open this Spring.

Priced from the $240,000s, Rockford Township is located in the heart of Marietta on 27 acres of the historic Smith-Manning ante-bellum estate and only one and one-half miles from historic Marietta Square. Homes range in size from 2,800-3,595 square feet. Amenities will include a pool, luxurious cabana and children’s playground.

“We are extremely excited about the progress that is taking place at Rockford Township,” said Josh Hilscher, Vice President of Sales and Marketing for Traton Homes. “Not only have we broken ground on our model home, we have also have several homes that are already under contract.”

The gated community is surrounded by the charm of the area’s rich history including vibrant Marietta Square, historic Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park, and quaint local bakeries and antique shops. It is also conveniently located near outstanding shopping and dining on Barrett Parkway and the Avenue at West Cobb.

Rockford Township is located in the Marietta City Charter School district. It is one of only two school districts in metro-Atlanta and one of only 27 school districts throughout the state whose students achieved 100 percent Adequate Yearly Progress (AYP) in 2009-2010. In addition, the district is also recognized as an International Baccalaureate (IB) World School district. Students in this community will attend Burruss Elementary, Marietta 6th Grade Academy, Marietta Middle and Marietta High schools.

To visit the community from the Marietta Square, head west on Whitlock Avenue to the second traffic light and turn left on Manning Road. Go about one mile until you reach a stop sign. Go through the stop sign to the Rockford Township entrance.
