Experience the timeless charm of this magnificent Historic Charleston Single-House reproduction, located off Cherokee Street in Marietta's historic district. Located within the prestigious gated community of Blair Valley, this home offers a serene oasis just three minutes from the Square. Situated on a rare double-lot, this property presents a unique ownership opportunity. The welcoming expansive front porch overlooks the lush community space, setting a picturesque scene. Step inside to find a grand curved staircase that graces the entryway, leading your gaze to the formal living room. This space exudes character, featuring a historic mantle imported from England, meticulous woodwork, and elegant arched door frames that create a striking visual impact. The music room, adjacent to the living room, is bathed in natural light and separated by French pocket doors, offering a cozy yet sophisticated space. The open-concept design seamlessly connects the living areas, including a spacious formal dining room perfect for hosting gatherings. The gourmet kitchen is a chef's dream, equipped with a six-burner Dacor stove, granite countertops with a farm sink, a central island, and coffered ceilings. The breakfast nook surrounded by built-ins and it's charming window seat makes for a cozy spot to sip morning coffee. Off the long hallway adjacent to the kitchen made completely out of natural stone, you will find the luxurious primary suite encompassing a wall of windows that let in an exuberant amount of natural light and see into the stunning side entrance's always-in-bloom landscaping. The en-suite's bathroom offers a fully renovated bathroom that includes a vessel tub, marble shower, and custom-built walk-in closets. Head upstairs from the main curved staircase off the foyer to discover a true auditorium complete with a wet bar and professional movie theater sound quality built out by Marietta's own woodworking company "Rustique." A private bricked porch is located off of this room overlooking the front of the property with sights of the enormous magnolia tree located in the common green of Blair Valley. The first bedroom off the hallway is separated from the auditorium by a bathroom featuring a double-vanity and private shower/tub combination. The next offers a private in-suite bathroom with a custom walk-in closet. The last bedroom opens to a vast walkout Charlestonian piazza overlooking the side courtyard through four sets of French doors. The piazza features a gas stone fireplace with views spanning from front to back of the property. Also, peek over the side railing to find a secret courtyard graced with a pea gravel path leading you from the front of the property all the way to the side entrance which is adorned by mature seasonal landscaping. Above the garage, an additional living space awaits, providing versatility and privacy with potential for an in-law suite. This area includes a separate living room, full bathroom, dedicated workout room (that can serve as an additional bedroom), and back studio filled with natural light that contains yet another private bricked porch with views overlooking the majestic pool and backyard space. Head through the hallway off the back foyer to find a convenient half-bath and mud area. Continue outside to be greeted by a screened-in porch furnished with decor from Serena & Lily with floors exhibiting black and white distressed tile. Arguably the main focal point of this estate is the professionally landscaped backyard encompassing a heated gunite pool with an oversized tanning ledge. The beauty of this spa-like backyard cannot be overstated! Beyond the pool you will find additional green space for croquet, bocce ball, or other activities along with a fire pit area and string lights up above! This exquisite home flawlessly blends historic elegance with modern luxury, offering a truly unique living experience in one of Marietta's most coveted neighborhoods.
