821 Soaring Drive NE This meticulously maintained home is situated on nearly half an acre in a family-friendly neighborhood. With a serene woodland backdrop, this sturdy brick abode is securely anchored on a gently sloping lot, set high and dry and edged by well-manicured grounds. The home has been masterfully designed to utilize every inch of its floor space. Its expansive light-filled interior belies its handsome, unpretentious, efficiently-packaged exterior. But make no mistake, set over three levels with a 2300+ sq-ft footprint - this is a substantial abode. New windows, new ceiling fans, new HVAC systems, Whirlpool stainless steel appliances, updated timber stairs on the classic internal staircase, all locks, knobs, and hinges, interior and exterior paint finishes, dimmable lighting, wifi thermostat and cameras. Spacious open-plan layout linking the kitchen (feat. granite counters) with the large living and dining spaces. Elegant light fittings feature throughout. A stunning fireplace is the focal point of the Great room, flanked by two gorgeous fan light windows. Upstairs, you'll discover opulent bedrooms with elevated ceilings, plush carpets and roomy, well-equipped bathrooms. In the main ensuite, you can soak away your worries in a lovely garden tub set against a magnificent picture window whose appealing green vista is breathtaking. A generously-sized deck overhangs the desirable south-facing rear yard, with its mature trees providing a buffer from the wind and weather. It's the perfect place to entertain, yet also provides a peaceful and private retreat. Bonuses with this property include a large double tuck-under garage and an unfinished basement with loads of storage. Make this home your own and while you'll feel a million miles away from the bustle of everyday life, you are only an eight minute drive from Marietta's vibrant Downtown and Square with its restaurants, shopping, entertainment, and cultural and historical attractions. 1-2 year lease available and pets considered on a case by case basis.
