Just minutes away from historic Marietta Square and even better than new, 225 Scottsdale in Promenade Ridge already has the upgrades most buyers wish they had chosen when they built. Out front, board-and-batten + brick meet a front porch you'll actually use. Step through the grand entrance and you'll notice luxury wide-plank hardwoods running through the entire home in a modern neutral that works with any aesthetic. A generous foyer welcomes guests and draws them into the open main level, where you can gather around the fireplace to stream a movie or simply unwind after one of "those" days. Custom built-ins give you space for the pieces you've collected over the years and the family photos you want to see every day. Just off the main living area, the open kitchen is one you'll want to cook in and linger in (or just order Uber Eats and be glad you don't have any dishes to clean)! A big upgrade are the cabinets that run to the ceiling to provide even more storage so counters stay clear. The island brings a coordinated contrast that gives the space a polished, designer feel. Dinner is easily served at the kitchen table with serene backyard views, or you can host the holidays in the spacious dining room with its own built-in bar and beverage fridge. French doors from the main living area open to a covered patio with a fan and blinds-cool in summer yet still connected to the outdoors. It's absolutely made for entertaining. Upstairs, the same hardwoods continue. The oversized primary suite has lots of room for a seating area to put on your shoes or just relax before the day starts. Extra large dresser? No problem at all. A tray ceiling adds a refined detail, and the large owner's balcony is made for morning coffee and evening wind-downs. The primary ensuite feels like a reason to stay home: freestanding tub, frameless shower, and space to enjoy a glass of wine and that book you never have time to finish. The other three bedrooms work equally well for guests, a home office, craft space, workout room, or whatever you need. The laundry room sits conveniently near all the bedrooms, so laundry day becomes simple. Outside, upgraded landscaping with lush plantings and an extended patio create a private retreat. The backyard is fenced for Fido to play in and for extra privacy. The HOA handles the mowing, and the upgraded sprinklers are app-controlled if you'd rather manage the lawn from the couch. Marietta Square's restaurants, boutiques, and year-round events are just minutes away. City Club Golf Course is next door, with Kennestone/Wellstar, Kennesaw Mountain, and easy I-75 access close by.
