A Brick Beauty with a Hollywood Twist! Awesome New Listing! A move-in ready charmer with a story to tell—and a whole lot to offer! This classic 4-sided brick ranch sits in the award-winning East Cobb school district and has been lovingly maintained, thoughtfully updated, and even visited by a touch of Hollywood royalty. (Yes, really.) With 4 bedrooms and 3 full baths, this home is as flexible as it is functional. The large family room flows into an open-concept dining/living combo, and the beautifully renovated kitchen shines with granite countertops, stainless appliances, hardwood floors, a double oven, and more. Looking for bonus space or dreaming of passive income? The 460 sq ft addition includes a bedroom/living area, kitchenette, full bath, huge sliding window, and its own dedicated HVAC—ideal for a deluxe owner’s suite, entertainment area, guest suite, or an income-producing efficiency apartment. No HOA and no rent restrictions! Here’s where it gets even better: while the home was originally built in 1966, a major renovation in 2016 updated it so extensively that Cobb County now recognizes it with an “Effective Year Built” of 2016. That means you're getting the timeless appeal of a solid brick ranch with the modern comfort, efficiency, and peace of mind you'd expect in a much newer home. Updates include energy-efficient windows, a tankless gas water heater, remodeled bathrooms, and a backyard patio perfect for relaxing or entertaining. NEW ROOF 4 YEARS AGE AND NEW HVAC IN BEDROOM ADDDITION LAST YEAR. Oh, and about that Hollywood connection—the original owner for 38 years was the iconic American actor Paul Newman’s brother-in-law! Paul and his Oscar-winning wife Joanne Woodward would stay here when visiting. (For the younger crowd, they were kind of a big deal—Google them!) Whether you're a first-time buyer, a savvy investor, or someone looking to downsize without compromise, this home delivers charm, space, and a dash of stardust. Close to KSU, I-75/I-575, shopping, dining, and walking trails—the location checks every box. Don’t miss your chance to write the next chapter in this home’s story—schedule your showing today!
