About this home

WHITLOCK HEIGHTS-The holidays are coming up FAST and this house is ready and waiting for you to host your friends and family! Set on a stunning nearly ¾-acre lot with fresh sod, new landscaping, a freshly poured driveway, and an expansive patio, this home gives you something that’s increasingly hard to find: room to grow. Want a pool? Build it. Dreaming of a carriage house? There's space. Planning the ultimate backyard hangout? You’ve got the canvas. And the house itself has been completely transformed. Renovated inside and out in a sophisticated European Farmhouse style, it blends beautifully with the $1M++ new construction around it, while maintaining the character, lot size, and established neighborhood setting that new construction struggles to replicate. Inside, you’ll find four beautiful bedrooms, two full baths, and a charming powder room. A brand-new kitchen, new flooring, fresh interior and exterior paint, updated lighting, and newly cleared and backyard finished with sod; simply too many improvements to list! The sun-filled floor plan is made for entertaining, with a versatile main-level flex space that can easily become a home office, playroom, or future bedroom and bath. When it’s time to unwind, the covered screened porch is ready for morning coffee or evening drinks, while the expansive patio provides plenty of room for dinner parties, game days, birthday celebrations, and all the people you love having around. But what really makes this property special is the combination of home, yard, and community. This is a classic Marietta neighborhood where people know each other, neighbors actually hang out, and traditions have become part of what makes the street feel like home. Add award-winning Marietta City Schools, quick access to Kennesaw Mountain, major highways, and all the restaurants, shopping, nightlife, festivals, and energy of Marietta Square, and you'll understand why this location is prized as well. You can renovate a house. You can build a beautiful home. But it's hard to recreate a lot this size, a neighborhood this established, or a community like this at this price point. Come see it for yourself. You’re going to love it! (If rates are keeping you from making a move: Sellers are happy to consider a 2/1 Buydown Option.)
