700 John Ward Road SW DOUBLE LOT, 1+ ACRE & NO HOA! This sprawling ranch has been thoughtfully updated by sellers who truly believed this would be their forever home. Recent improvements include a new roof, windows, recessed lighting, hardware, and fresh interior paint throughout. A charming front courtyard welcomes you before you enter through the vaulted entryway to the open, light-filled floor plan. The modernized family room features a stylish accent wall, while bamboo flooring and detailed trim add warmth and character throughout the main level. The spacious dining room, complete with its own fireplace, creates a cozy setting for dinners and entertaining. The updated kitchen features quartz countertops, new stainless-steel appliances, and an enormous walk-in pantry. Just off the kitchen is a separate office or flex space, along with a completely renovated laundry room and oversized pantry closet. Updated bathrooms add to the home's move-in-ready appeal. Enjoy some quiet time on the screened porch overlooking the private 1+ acre double lot, offering plenty of room to enjoy, play, garden, or simply spread out. The full, semi-finished walk-out basement offers tall ceilings, painted concrete floors, and a stylish half bath. Use it as-is for additional living, recreation, gym, or workshop space, or finish it to fit your needs. Even the garage offers something extra, with ceiling height that could accommodate a car lift. With multiple indoor and outdoor entertaining spaces, incredible flexibility, a double lot, and no HOA, this property offers something increasingly hard to find. All just 4 miles from Downtown Marietta, convenient to Barrett Parkway, and within walking distance of Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield.
