This quaint Country Cottage, a historic home surrounded by lush, professionally landscaped gardens, is nestled on one fully private acre in an ideal Cartersville location just four miles from I-75, offering the perfect balance of peaceful country living and convenient access to shopping, dining, and everyday essentials. Conveniently located near Downtown Cartersville, Lake Allatoona, Red Top Mountain State Park, and easy commuter routes to both Atlanta and Chattanooga, this property combines tranquility and accessibility. The outdoor spaces are truly something special. Professionally engineered and landscaped in 2025, the cedar-fenced courtyard and pergola create peaceful and serene retreats perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The expansive property includes approximately 1/3 acre of pristine hardwood and softwood forest and is fully fenced above and below ground with cedar and metal for wildlife prevention and pet safety. Professionally established landscaping provides blooms year-round, while the wooded areas have been thoughtfully cleared of invasive trees and plants, meaning no need to worry about poison ivy. Stroll along the walking paths, enjoy the land for recreation, or simply admire the majestic hardwood oak trees near the 2025 engineered retaining walls accented by blooming perennials and ornamental grasses. Pick fresh figs from the historic fig tree and enjoy the beauty and privacy of this truly unique homestead. Durable metal roofs on both the home and adjacent outbuildings provide lasting protection. The additional structures offer clean workshop space and abundant storage for equipment, hobbies, or recreational needs. Inside, the home offers a warm and inviting atmosphere filled with charm and natural light. Solid wood beadboard walls throughout create a cozy cottage feel, while the flexible floorplan provides comfortable everyday living with abundant storage space. Relax in the Light-Filled Sunroom, unwind in front of one of the two fireplaces, or enjoy the Spacious Kitchen featuring generous cabinetry and room for casual dining. Additional living spaces offer flexibility for a Home Office, reading room, guest accommodations, or hobby space. Thoughtfully maintained with comfort and safety in mind, the home features HVAC, electrical, and plumbing systems that meet international building code standards. Additional improvements include a brand-new professional-grade water heater, an AquaGuard maintenance-free gutter system piped underground to the street, and a French drain system designed to help keep the home high and dry. The engineered Hardie Plank underpinning and 8-inch gravel base surrounding the home help prevent critter entry while allowing for easy insect prevention maintenance. The property is further secured by a front gate, security system with a loud alarm, cameras, and four-corner floodlights for added peace of mind.
