Expect the unexpected. Behind painted white brick and steel-framed double doors, this renovated and expanded Marietta home offers 5 bedrooms and 6.5 baths across four finished levels, with a private bath for every bedroom and finishes chosen to the owner’s standard rather than the street’s. The 33-foot kitchen is the centerpiece: two waterfall quartz islands, black shaker cabinetry with brass hardware, a black farmhouse sink under a wall of windows, built-in refrigerator and freezer columns, a microwave drawer, and a Thor six-burner range with griddle and double ovens set in brick beneath a brass pot filler. A butler’s pantry with sink, a marble-clad powder bath, a mudroom with lockers, and a living and dining room with a herringbone brick fireplace and lit built-ins complete the main level. Then the showpiece: a year-round, climate-controlled grilling kitchen and family room with a built-in grill and smoker under a stainless hood, farmhouse sink, dishwasher and undercounter refrigeration, plus a stone fireplace, coffered beams, skylights and folding glass walls that open to a flagstone courtyard. Upstairs, the primary suite pairs a pine tray ceiling with its own screened porch, a walk-in closet and a spa bath where a jetted soaking tub sits inside a glass wet room with rain shower and brushed-gold fixtures. Two more bedrooms each have a private bath, one opening to a deck, and a full laundry room is on this level. The third floor is a private suite or office with full bath, electric fireplace, screened porch and a boutique-style dressing room. The terrace level adds a bedroom with private patio, a bath with walk-in tub, a media room with built-in bar, a bonus room and a second laundry. Outside are a pool set in a wraparound deck, stone fireplace, fire pit, sport court, treehouse and a full bath with walk-in shower. The investment is already in the walls; the next owner simply moves in. Golf simulator does not convey. Rose Jones
