This is the chance of a lifetime for someone who wants to either build their dream home or build multiple homes. This 1.04 acre lot not only has road frontage, but also is mostly cleared of trees, has been subdivided and has a survey already made!! If the lot itself wasn't impressive enough, it's minutes from groceries, shopping, hospitals, the Chattahoochee River, 5 minutes from EASTVALLEY Elementary, 3 minutes from EAST COBB Middle and 3 minutes from WHEELER High. You don't find land in areas like this anymore.
East Cobb, located between the Chattahoochee River National Recreation Area and Historic Marietta Square, is a residential and suburban Marietta neighborhood with wooded creek corridors and a strong parks-and-trails culture. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Johnson Ferry Road at Lower Roswell Road, where coffee counters, local eateries, and everyday errands cluster in a steady hum of traffic and patios. Community pillars include The Avenue East Cobb, the Georgia Symphony Orchestra at the Jennie T. Anderson Theatre, and the weekly Marietta Square Farmers Market. Streets shift from mid-century ranches to newer brick traditionals, with cul-de-sacs and rolling terrain shaping the blocks. Terrell Mill Park and the Sope Creek trails set a weekend rhythm of river walks and shaded runs. Dining and shopping lean toward small plazas and locally rooted spots rather than a single main street.
