About this home

Historic Neighborhood Charm. Modern Comfort. The best of both worlds!! Enjoy the timeless charm of historic Downtown Marietta without sacrificing the conveniences of modern living! Built in 2017 to complement the neighborhood's historic architecture and design standards, this beautiful Craftsman style home offers 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a rare 3 car garage, and nearly half an acre of wooded privacy-all within walking distance of vibrant Marietta Square. Designed for entertaining and everyday living, the bright, open interior features expansive windows that flood the home with natural light, complemented by custom woven shades that provide privacy without sacrificing brightness. At the heart of the home, a spacious kitchen boasts an oversized island with seating, abundant cabinetry, and a walk in pantry with storage for days. A formal dining room and room for a breakfast nook offer flexibility for everything from casual mornings to holiday celebrations. The thoughtful flow from the kitchen to the oversized living room and out to the back deck makes entertaining effortless. A natural gas fireplace creates a cozy gathering spot for chilly mornings and Christmas celebrations, while a dedicated natural gas connection on the back deck means grilling without the hassle of propane tank refills. Two upstairs primary suites, each with it own private ensuite bathroom, offer exceptional flexibility for multigenerational living, adult children, roommates, or extended family. The main primary suite features a custom walk-in closet with dedicated his-and-hers sides, built0in clothing drawers, and beautifully organized storage. The three-car garage provides additional convenience for households with multiple drivers. Outside, this property offers two completely different experiences. The charming front porch overlooks lush gardens bursting with banana trees (yes, actual banana trees!), hibiscus, double-blooming lilies, fragrant gardenias, hydrangeas, and jasmine. It's the perfect spot for morning coffee, greeting neighbors, or enjoying the neighborhood's legendary Halloween trick-or-treating tradition. When you're ready for privacy, retreat to the back deck, where abundant wildlife and magnificent mature trees create a peaceful escape. Set on approximately 0.44 acres, the property offers a remarkable sense of space for a home so close to downtown. Significant investment has made in the tree maintenance and the removal of hazardous trees, helping preserve the beauty of the mature landscape. And then there's the neighborhood - perhaps the greatest luxury of all. Morning walks along the charming historic streets are an experience in themselves. In spring, the fragrance of jasmine and wisteria fills the air as you stroll past beautiful historic homes, established gardens, and towering trees. It's the kind of neighborhood that makes you want to slow down and take the long way home. Just a short walk away, Marietta Square offers an incredible collection of restaurants, coffee shops, boutiques, farmers markets, live entertainment, and year round festivals. Enjoy spontaneous dinners, leisurely weekend mornings, and all the excitement of downtown living - without the parking headaches. Historic neighborhood character. Modern construction. Dual primary suites. Three-car garage. Exceptional indoor-outdoor entertaining. Beautiful gardens. Nearly half and acre of wooded privacy. All within walking distance of Marietta Square. Why choose between historic charm, modern convenience, and an exceptional lifestyle when you can have it all? Welcome home to 526 Whitlock Avenue.
