3BR/2.5BA home in a prime location with an opportunity to purchase below market value. Located less than 2 miles from Kennesaw State University, under 6 miles to downtown Kennesaw, and just minutes to I-75, this property offers strong long-term value and convenience to shopping, dining, and major commuting routes. This home has already had the major updates completed, including a newer roof, siding, HVAC, and water heater - eliminating the big-ticket concerns many buyers face. The interior features fresh paint, new carpet, and updated kitchen cabinets, making it clean and livable from day one. The property does need work. The backyard requires TLC, and the 2-car garage will need repairs. The price reflects these items and offers an opportunity to add value and build equity. A rare two-car garage for the neighborhood and a price positioned below comparable properties make this a strong value play for both homeowners and investors. Seller has relocated and is motivated.

RA-4
Single-Family Attached/Detached Residential District
The RA-4 district is established to provide locations for the development of single-family detached or attached residential dwelling units including the combination of duplexes, triplexes and quadruplexes. The dwelling units are to be designed so as to be placed on an individual lot attached to another dwelling unit or on an adjoining lot where the units will be attached by a common party wall. This residential use is designed to be located within or on the edge of properties delineated for low and medium density residential categories as defined and shown on the Cobb County Comprehensive Plan. When residentially compatible institutional and recreational uses or residential uses are developed within the RA-4 district, they should be designed and built to ensure intensity and density compatibility with adjacent single-family detached dwellings and otherwise to implement the stated purpose and intent of this chapter.
