Located approximately a half-mile from the Marietta Square, 242 Whitlock Avenue was designed by the famed W. Montgomery Anderson, principal architect of the Sea Island Company. This gem boasts nearly a century of prominence on Whitlock Avenue and is waiting for a third owner to write its new chapter.
Originally built for the governor’s son and positioned perfectly on .52+/- acres in the prized Whitlock Avenue Historic District, this old world colonial has been showcased in the Marietta Pilgrimage Home Tour multiple times. With 10-foot ceilings, original windows and shutters, heart pine and oak floors and secluded English style gardens, this one-of-a-kind home will not be on the market for long!
As you make your way through the stunning front door, a spacious family room containing a fireplace greets you. With gorgeous, early 20th-century woodwork, old heart pine hardwood floors, and classic Southern styling, the Brown Settlemyer Home is as unique as it is beautiful.
The dining room is spacious enough to host large dinner parties and the timeless chandelier complements the breathtaking, old world charm found throughout the home.
The kitchen has a special paint color that enhances the historic wallpaper. With ample cabinets for storage, stainless steel appliances and two large windows that look out to the yard, this kitchen exudes a cozy feeling.
Before you enter the bedroom, the master suite offers a nice sitting room or workspace. The master bathroom has rare wallpaper with quality materials that you won’t find in new construction homes.
The sunroom has three sides of windows that overlook the exquisite gardens and is the perfect place to enjoy your morning coffee as you plan out your day.
Highlighted by the beautiful center fountain and circular hedge, the garden adds a wonderful ambiance to the property.
With multiple benches for admiring the various parts of the yard, there are several places for birdwatching or enjoying an afternoon tea.
