MARIETTA – This beautifully preserved and lovingly maintained city is rich in history and proud of its heritage. The city, centered by a popular old-fashioned town square is the county seat of Cobb County. The Square in Marietta has been charmingly landscaped and is now the setting for an old-fashioned gazebo, fountain, and children’s play area complete with a miniature General, the famous train engine used in the Civil War. Around the square are located judicial and government offices, as well as quaint antique and specialty shops, a live theater, and restaurants. From spring through fall the Square is a major draw as it is host to many festivals and both day and evening concerts.
Marietta has one of the finest public golf courses in the metro area at the Marietta City Club. Today fine columned antebellum mansions stand alongside large Victorian gingerbread homes creating picturesque streets that are a window to the past. Home styles are mostly traditional and range from historic homes to new subdivisions with swim-tennis amenities. Marietta Homes for sale include historic antebellum homes in the city limits to both old and new homes in the surrounding areas priced from $200,000 to over $2 million dollars.
