The photographs also show a dining area with oversize windows next to a large eat-in kitchen, living areas with fireplaces, a wood-walled library with another fireplace and a sweeping staircase.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-14.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"The property stands in Atlanta's affluent Buckhead neighborhood.\" class=\"wp-image-22126872\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-14.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>The property stands in Atlanta\u2019s affluent Buckhead neighborhood.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">VSI Group\/Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby\u2019s International Realty<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"683\" height=\"1024\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/Emily-Giffin.jpg?w=683\" alt=\"Giffin has written multiple novels at the home.\" class=\"wp-image-22126895\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/Emily-Giffin.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1366 1366w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/Emily-Giffin.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/Emily-Giffin.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=683 683w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/Emily-Giffin.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=341 341w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 683px) 100vw, 683px\"\/><figcaption>Giffin has written multiple novels at the home.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">WireImage<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>In all, the listing encompasses five bedrooms, four full bathrooms and two powder rooms across 9,286 square feet. Beyond the perks of the main house, there\u2019s also a pool, a pool house, a pond and a barn.<\/p>\n<p>The historic charm of the property drew the couple in, and the roughly 5-acre chunk of land offered their three kids plenty of space to play. And during their ownership, Giffin and Blaha \u2014 the president of Atlanta-based Iron Works Logistics \u2014 shelled out about $2 million in renovations, which touched the house, the pool house and the barn.<\/p>\n<p>With other details, such as English gardens and a cozy breakfast room, it\u2019s hard not to feel inspired. Perhaps that\u2019s why Giffin penned her six most recent titles in the home \u2014 including \u201cMeant to Be,\u201d slated for release this month. The second floor of the pool house, with views of the pool and the gardens, served as her office.<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-07.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"A standout feature is the eat-in kitchen that looks out to a breakfast room.\" class=\"wp-image-22126929\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-07.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-07.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-07.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>A standout feature is the eat-in kitchen that looks out to a breakfast room.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">VSI Group\/Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby\u2019s International Realty<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-09.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"A large family room has a fireplace.\" class=\"wp-image-22126950\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-09.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-09.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-09.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>A large family room has a fireplace.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">VSI Group\/Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby\u2019s International Realty<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-11.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"Cozy nooks for seating abound.\" class=\"wp-image-22126975\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-11.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-11.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-11.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Cozy nooks for seating abound.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">VSI Group\/Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby\u2019s International Realty<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large is-style-default\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-02.jpg?w=1024\" alt=\"The handsome library.\" class=\"wp-image-22127020\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1535 1536w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2022\/05\/something-borrowed-home-02.jpg?quality=75&amp;strip=all&amp;w=512 512w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>The handsome library.<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">VSI Group\/Atlanta Fine Homes Sotheby\u2019s International Realty<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>The ground level of the main house is also home to the master suite with a private sunroom, two closets, a 1920s-style bathroom with twin vanities and a freestanding tub.
