1530 Forest Trace, Marietta, GA 30066

There’s a lot of lot – a rare half-acre – and a lot to love about this attractive ranch-style home set on a level, landscaped Marietta corner block flanked by mature trees. In this friendly, inclusive neighborhood, with its semi-rural feel, there’s no end to the crisp clean air, the big blue skies, and the intoxicating scent of the changing seasons; yet, despite the lovely sense of remoteness, you’re only 10-minutes away from Downtown Woodstock’s vibrant entertainment, shopping, arts and eats scene. The property features a solid, single-level, timber-clad home which has been extensively refurbished over the past five years (including the installation of a new roof in 2019). The design makes clever use of the available space. It’s large enough for comfortable family living, yet small enough to maintain without sacrificing your precious weekends. However, if you are keen to flex your DIY-handyperson muscles, then celebrate the knowledge that with no HOA, you’ll enjoy full creative freedom - no weighty caveats or restrictions apply. Inside, you'll love the open-plan living, dining and kitchen space featuring raked ceilings, a rustic stone-clad fireplace, stylish light fittings, and pops of timber. There’s an efficient tuckaway laundry and a modern kitchen equipped with quartz countertops, stainless steel appliances, solid timber cabinetry and a walk-in pantry. The main bedroom is sunny and spacious with walk-in-robes and a full bathroom complete with herringbone white tile walk-in shower and dual vanity. The light-filled living and dining area with its desirable south-facing aspect features French doors that flow to a spacious outdoor patio, ideal for entertaining or simply soaking up the sun with a cocktail or cool drink in hand. Outside, you’ll also discover a fire pit for nights spent stargazing and toasting marshmallows with the kids, and an internally fenced rear yard perfect for your furry friends. Should you fancy yourself as a green thumb, much of the work of creating a blissful outdoor retreat has been taken care of for you. You’ll delight at a thoughtful selection of plantings including four Japanese maples, a ginkgo tree, a pear tree, a Saucer Magnolia tree, a selection of blueberry bushes, hydrangeas and more. This delightful property is close to all amenities including good schools, recreational trails and parklands. In addition to Woodstock, you can get to the Marietta Square or Kennesaw within 20 minutes. Or travel further south to Downtown Atlanta in a little over half-an-hour. Don’t miss this outstanding opportunity to secure an enviable new lifestyle. With the spring season just around the corner, if you plan on moving in and enjoying the home in all its blossoming glory, you'll need a spring in your step to beat competing buyers.
