Property Description

Historic Marietta Gem with Timeless Character and an Exceptional Location Welcome to the Blair-Wright-Johnson House - a beautifully preserved 1923 Cape Cod nestled along iconic Cherokee Street. Lovingly maintained by the same family for over 50 years, this rare property offers a remarkable blend of architectural legacy, enduring craftsmanship, and walkable convenience. Built by Judge D.W. Blair for his newlywed daughter and the birthplace of Charles Bagley Wright, visionary developer of Seattle's Space Needle, this home is steeped in narrative and pedigree. Original oak floors, cedar shake siding, a hand-carved entry surround, millwork, and two period fireplaces speak to the attention to detail and artistry of its era. Thoughtful updates throughout have preserved the home's historic charm while enhancing everyday livability-making it truly move-in ready for modern life. Set on a generous half-acre lot, the grounds are lush and private, featuring mature landscaping that boasts majestic grand magnolias, a brick patio, and a Cherokee stone dining terrace-ideal for morning coffee, intimate dinners, or outdoor entertaining. There's also ample space for future expansion or a guest cottage. Located just minutes from I-75/575, Wellstar Kennestone Hospital, and leading medical campuses, this home offers quick access to professional hubs while remaining a serene retreat at day's end. Stroll to Marietta Square for locally loved boutiques, acclaimed restaurants, live music, a historic movie theater, and the vibrant weekend markets. For outdoor enthusiasts, the Mountain to River (M2R) trail system is just blocks away-connecting you to scenic Kennesaw Mountain National Battlefield Park and offering the perfect setting for walking, running, and biking. This is more than a home-it's a cherished part of Marietta's living history, ready to welcome its next steward.
