Property Description

This East Cobb property presents a strong value-add opportunity in a consistently high-demand resale and rental market! Situated on a wooded, level 0.35-acre lot, the home offers a straightforward layout with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms across approximately 1,300 square feet—ideal for a primary buyer or for investors looking to renovate, reposition, or hold as a long-term rental. The floor plan allows for efficient use of space, making it well-suited for any additional cosmetic renovations or a more extensive overhaul depending on your investment strategy. The lot itself is a standout feature—flat, usable, and offering a private backyard that adds appeal for future tenants or buyers. With no HOA and a traditional single-level layout, the property offers flexibility and broad market appeal once updated. Location is a key driver of long-term upside. Positioned in East Cobb, the property benefits from steady demand due to proximity to major employment corridors, retail, and everyday conveniences. Just a short drive to Marietta Square, residents enjoy access to local dining, shopping, and community events, while nearby parks and outdoor attractions like Kennesaw Mountain enhance overall desirability. With surrounding home values trending higher and continued growth in the area, this property is well-positioned for investors seeking a renovation project with strong upside potential or a rental asset in a stable, appreciating market.
