486 Church Street

About this home

PRICE IMPROVEMENT…An Exceptional Opportunity on one of Historic Marietta’s most coveted streets. What an incredibly special unicorn of a property 486 Church Street truly is. Nearly impossible to replicate, this remarkable 1917 residence brings together a main-level primary suite, nearly one level acre of private grounds, extraordinary outdoor living, a separate carriage house, and a walkable location just steps from Historic Marietta Square, a combination that simply does not exist at this price. Thoughtfully renovated while honoring its historic character, the home showcases 150-year-old heart pine floors, original millwork, reclaimed wood accents, 10-foot ceilings, and beautifully curated finishes. The chef’s kitchen features Viking and Sub-Zero appliances with picturesque garden views, while the luxurious main-level primary suite offers a spa-inspired bath with a zero-entry dual shower overlooking the peaceful grounds. Imported French doors open to an expansive covered veranda ideal for alfresco dining and entertaining. Beyond, custom brick pathways wind through six spectacular botanical garden spaces filled with towering magnolias, climbing wisteria, a tranquil fountain, lush plantings, and a custom-designed, site-built cedar cabana, creating an extraordinary private oasis. The charming carriage house adds tremendous flexibility for multigenerational living, extended guests, an au pair, private office, or separate retreat. Best of all, walk to the acclaimed restaurants, boutiques, farmers market, theaters, festivals, and year-round events of Historic Marietta Square, then return home to the privacy and serenity of nearly an acre. This home offers a lifestyle that would be extraordinarily difficult to recreate today. With its new price, this landmark property represents one of Historic Marietta’s most distinctive and compelling opportunities.
