HISTORIC MARIETTA SQUARE! Welcome to Goldsworthy House, c. 1887. This grand home offers dizzying ceiling heights over original wood floors, pretty windows casting bold glances at beautiful gardens, and a gorgeous sweep of stairs to the upper living quarters once the kitchen stops holding court for just one more buttered biscuit. The cotillion-sized dining room challenges one to conjure up a table large enough to fill it. And the sunroom begs for coffee, tea, or an aged single malt with a side of Billiards, depending on the occasion…or the company. 4 upper-floor bedrooms invite family and friends to stay, and 2 full baths and a powder room allow for unencumbered privacy. The flexible array of main floor living spaces offers ample room to create a new primary suite without giving up space for the entertaining of the masses. 180,000 bricks lay nestled in the gorgeous circular drive, extending through the breezeway, guiding celebrants to lounge on the huge, covered porch, and to gather on the enormous, raised brick patio shaded by wisteria-filled pergolas…or to spill over to circle around the fountain. The recently built carriage house, a baby of just a few years, boasts 4 oversized garage bays designed to meet historic guidelines, with plenty of storage for the car collector, and a sunlight-filled upper guest quarters, complete with another full bath, urging the artists in the family to set up shop, and the guests to relax on the beautiful balcony. This classic beauty has stood the test of time and could fill novels with all that she has seen in her Georgia reign. She is waiting for you to write her next chapter.
