1856 Kristen Mill Way

Marietta, GA 30062

An idyllic custom-built Cape Cod with carriage house, this beloved home has been completely re-imagined for modern living! Set amidst a babbling brook and deciduous foliage with all the privacy of a wooded cottage yet all the amenities of a community HOA. Phew, SO much to say about this one as it is simply a stunning, unique estate! Main home boasts 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths with a 2-story bonus room, second kitchen, children’s loft, sunroom, and a walkout deck to backyard garden. Carriage house features a beautifully renovated 1/1 studio apartment with private rear entrance & laundry, finished office space, and plenty of unfinished workshop space that could be used as a garage. Stepping on to the property, you’re greeted by an impressive variety of azalea blooms and perennials lining the winding driveway, including a number of coveted orange azaleas! Cross over the creek using the little white bridge but don’t miss the slate-gravel “nature trails” lining the creek - with step stones to cross if you dare. Entering the home, you are met with a blend of classic, modern fixtures like the Coppersmith gas lantern on front porch and touches of custom craftsmanship everywhere you turn. The gardener’s entrance is engulfed in pickled pine millwork and provides an ideal place to “catch the dirt” and drop shoes or shower-off, leading to the main level’s generous full bath. Off of the mud hall you’ll find the kitchen in the heart of the home, beautifully reimagined and open to the living room + sun room - appointed with a gorgeous Big Chill refrigerator, Ilve range, and a 12-foot “Super White” quartzite island ending in a round-table style dining area that comfortably seats 5 around the “table”. Additional bar-style seating can be added amongst the length of the island as you head towards the formal dining room, guest bedroom on main, and cozy powder room. Gorgeous ship-lapped sunroom is also off of the kitchen, leading to the step-less deck and backyard garden for seamless entertaining flow! Upstairs, you’ll find 2 additional light-filled guest bedrooms that share a full bath outfitted in York Ashford Toiles Dogs Life Wallpaper. The primary suite is oversized and features a marble-clad bathroom renovation fit for a design magazine! “Statuary Supreme” marble covers the 70” tub and Super White quartzite sits atop the pair of custom vanities with bamboo trim and Emtek hardware! Hold on to your bootstraps - the 2-story bonus room makes this home unlike any other as it is fully engulfed in custom pickled-pine millwork (and sunlight!) with a charming loft for children to play in. There is a fully-stocked kitchenette in this space and plenty of room to play, relax, or watch the big game - the photos simply don’t do it justice! Heading over to the carriage house, you’ll find the studio apartment on the second floor, fully renovated in 2021 with its own full kitchen, bathroom, and washer/dryer! Down below is currently a “man-cave” functioning as a heated/cooled office space and unfinished workshop space that could easily be converted back to a 2-car garage if needed. The carriage house features its own covered porch overlooking the landscaped nature trails & creek bed with fire pit area and swing built-in to the trees! All of the landscaping throughout the property is serviced by a 9-zone Rain Bird irrigation system. This home is simply too unique to capture in words - you’ll need to come and experience in reality! Only 5 minute drive to the new MBCA campus, 8 min to I75, 10 min to Marietta Square or The Walker School, 15 min to either East Cobb Trader Joe’s or Barrett Parkway, this home truly sits in the middle of it all in a fairytale setting!
