A ‘Must See’ Classic Georgian Home On Colston Road in the City of Marietta! This 2,391 sq ft executive 4 bedroom, 2.5 bath custom home has hardwoods that cover the entire main floor! Plantation shutters are stunning on all front and side windows and beautiful ceiling millwork provides every room with a distinct custom finish. 790 Colston has a circular flow pattern which offers fabulous space for receiving and entertaining guests. This house is recently updated with two new HVACs, furnaces, and thermostats, a newer gas cooktop, microwave, and a new driveway. The custom kitchen is updated with granite countertops, ceramic tile backsplash, custom cabinetry, soft closure drawers, appliance and trash garages, a center island, and recessed lighting. A separate dining area in the kitchen opens to a large bay window for viewing the backyard. The formal dining room receives morning light and overlooks beautifully maintained yards. Also, on the main floor is a den which has a fireplace trimmed in Travertine tile, a spacious mantle, brick hearth, wainscot paneling, chair rail molding, built-in cabinetry and shelves, and a large bay window and window seat. The den opens to a delightful screened back porch. An updated, custom half bath is also on the main floor. Upstairs, the main custom bathroom has two vanities, a full wall mirror, a shuttered window, and a low step shower. The main bedroom is very private, quiet, and overlooks the beautiful backyard. Also, upstairs is an updated, full hall bath and three additional bedrooms, each with generous double closet space, where one bedroom has a large walk-in closet. There is ‘stand up’ space in the main attic with an enclosed, large walk-in cedar closet.
