TWO GORGEOUS HOMES ON ONE AMAZING PROPERTY SO CLOSE TO MARIETTA SQUARE!! ***NOTE: Main house is 2-3 beds (one of the three is small)/2baths; second home is 1 bed/1 bath.*** The ultimate in multi-generational living, or friends-and-family-come-to-stay-without-being-underfoot! The main house is a Bell Bomber Beauty, lovingly renovated and reimagined for modern living with every ounce of charm intact. Original siding, moldings, hardwood floors, and doors were painstakingly protected, and square footage added to expand the kitchen and create a second bath. Both main bedrooms are surprisingly private, and the original third bedroom is a wonderful flex space for guests, den, office or studio. All new wiring, plumbing, HVAC, windows, appliances, deck, insulation, drywall, paint, and roof, with a fun mix of old and new fixtures, including a gorgeous 1940s crystal chandelier. A heated and cooled attic space makes a wonderful playroom or sleepover space, and a small basement houses mechanicals (and anything else you’d like to stash there!) Out back, tucked away behind the garage and pavilion, the private, and absolutely adorable guest house is a complete Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) with a bedroom, full bath, kitchen/living/dining and laundry. This Granny Pad is ready to delight folks of all ages and has its own private, landscaped yard with plenty of space. The detached one-car garage with additional storage space is just a few years old and preens under a new roof. The true showstopper is a formal garden, expertly designed by the previous owner, a Master Gardener who created the space that now connects the two homes, and was featured multiple times on local garden tours. You’ll swoon over brick pathways, established plants and fresh new specimens, and a wonderful, covered pavilion under which to sit and enjoy it. And the rear of the property backs up to City of Marietta Green Space; it is a haven. If you've dreamed of downsizing, but worry about space for folks to visit, or want to age in place with a future caregiver's cottage or an option for a revenue stream, don't miss this property. All of this lies smack dab in the heart of Historic Marietta, steps from Marietta Square, Marietta Middle School, and West Side Elementary School. This isn’t just an opportunity to own a property that feels like a venue, it’s a chance to immerse yourself in Marietta history and Marietta pride. And enjoy all the wonderful shops, restaurants, bars, museums, art galleries, concerts and festivals that make this town one of the most popular places to live in Georgia. Don’t miss it! Listing Agent is a Principal/Owner.
