Property Description

Built in 1917 on Historic Marietta’s coveted Church Street, this home has spent more than a century gathering stories. For the last twenty-five years, one owner’s editorial eye for detail and design has guided a defining restoration. Behind the white clapboard façade, original architecture lives alongside extraordinary antiques. A front door imported from Versailles. Arched wooden doors from a decommissioned church. An antique courthouse ledger cabinet. Museum-quality stained glass windows, intricate millwork, six fireplaces, and original heart pine floors whose scale and character are nearly impossible to replicate today. Over seven years, the home was taken to the studs and rebuilt with equal attention given to what could be seen and what could not. New electrical, plumbing, and HVAC systems were installed, and thoughtful additions expanded the home’s footprint. The front porch and balcony were added, the dining room was enlarged, and an expansive primary suite was built above the family room. Beyond the main residence, the breezeway, garage, pool, and detached guest suite and office were designed to complement the home’s original architecture. This is a home that feels both grand and deeply personal. Marble floors and soaring ceilings lead to quiet reading rooms. Formal spaces are softened by collected art and personal treasures. The family room, with its 12-foot ceilings and walls of windows overlooking the grounds, centers the home and invites us to stay. In the kitchen, two-inch marble countertops, Sub-Zero refrigeration, and a Thermador range sit alongside the courthouse ledger cabinet, a piece whose presence makes it feel original to the room. Brick courtyards connect the main residence to the detached guest suite and office, where vaulted ceilings, paneled walls, and parquet-pattern flooring honor the same attention to detail found throughout. Beyond the house itself, the property unfolds as a series of outdoor rooms. Pea gravel drives and mature gardens create an atmosphere that feels remarkably secluded while only a short walk from Marietta Square. The pool courtyard is framed by brick terraces, classical architectural elements, a stream and three ponds, lush gardens, and a secluded loggia for entertaining. What makes this home remarkable is not any single room or architectural detail, but the cumulative effect of a thousand thoughtful decisions made over decades. Every improvement honors what came before it.
