Just move in and enjoy! This beautifully updated 4-bedroom home with full basement offers the perfect combination of location, community, and move-in-ready peace of mind. Since 2022, the home has undergone an impressive list of updates that make it feel fresh, current, and worry-free. The exterior has been completely transformed with a striking new board-and-batten front elevation, a new roof, all-new windows, beautiful architectural accent lighting, new front and rear doors, fresh exterior paint, new gutters with gutter guards, and freshly screened porch. The backyard is fully fenced with attractive wood and aluminum fencing and includes an operational invisible fence that extends into the front yard, providing flexibility for pet owners. The smart home features include app-controlled door locks, thermostat, security system with video doorbell, and exterior architectural accent lighting. Ideally situated just minutes from shopping, dining, entertainment, Kennesaw State University, Kennestone Hospital, Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park, I-75, I-575, award-winning Cobb County schools, and premier private schools including Mount Paran Christian School and The Walker School, you'll enjoy convenient access to everything while coming home to a quiet, peaceful setting. Inside, you'll find over 3,000 square feet of beautifully maintained living space filled with thoughtful updates. Fresh interior paint, updated lighting and ceiling fans throughout, custom blinds, and an epoxy-coated garage floor continue the home's move-in-ready appeal. The beautiful kitchen remains the heart of the home, featuring abundant white shaker cabinetry—many with convenient stainless steel pull-out drawers, granite countertops, a tiled backsplash, gas cooking, and a large island with seating. It opens seamlessly to the breakfast area, spacious family room with coffered ceilings, built-in bookcases, and the wood-burning fireplace, creating the ideal gathering space for everyday living and entertaining. Just beyond, enjoy the large, screened porch overlooking the private backyard, while French doors from the family room lead to an expansive deck, offering multiple outdoor spaces to relax or entertain. The main level also features a huge dining room/living room located just off the kitchen providing exceptional flexibility for hosting family gatherings, holiday celebrations, or everyday living. Beautiful hardwood floors flow throughout the main level, continue up the staircase with elegant iron balusters, and extend through much of the second floor. The spacious owner's suite offers a private sitting room and a spa-inspired bath featuring a jetted tub, travertine tile, granite countertops, dual vanities, and a frameless glass shower with premium fixtures. The secondary bedrooms are generously sized, and each includes a walk-in closet. One of the bedrooms is bonus room sized and provides outstanding flexibility such as a home office, media room, fitness space, or playroom. The unfinished daylight basement is already stubbed for a future bathroom and features double exterior doors, providing endless possibilities for future expansion while offering abundant storage today. With extensive recent improvements, timeless finishes, exceptional maintenance, and an unbeatable location, this home truly offers the rare opportunity to enjoy the charm of an established neighborhood with the confidence that nearly every major improvement has already been completed.
