Kirkwood, historic plantation house in Eutaw, Alabama, United States

Kirkwood is a large Greek Revival house in Eutaw, Alabama, featuring two main stories and a small cupola on top. Tall Ionic columns support a wraparound porch, while low-pitched hipped roofing with decorative wooden brackets completes the structure.

Foster M. Kirksey began building Kirkwood in 1858, but the American Civil War halted construction and left several features unfinished. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 17, 1976, for its architectural significance. In the 1970s Roy and Mary Swayze restored it, completing the balcony railings, cupola and minor features; the family received a National Trust for Historic Preservation Honor Award in 1982.

The house is named for Foster M. Kirksey, the cotton planter who began it in 1858. Its Carolina-type portico with Ionic columns wrapping two sides, and the cupola on the hipped roof, were built to be seen from a distance. The Swayze family's restoration earned a National Trust for Historic Preservation Honor Award in 1982.

The house sits in the countryside near Eutaw at 111 Kirkwood Drive and can be viewed from the outside. Visitors occasionally have access to interior tours and special events that showcase the restored rooms and original features.

The balcony railings, cupola and several minor features were only completed in the 1970s, when Roy and Mary Swayze restored the house. The Swayze family received a National Trust for Historic Preservation Honor Award in 1982 for that work.
