A Virtual Tour of Downtown Marietta: A North Atlanta Suburb with a Vibrant Main Street Area and a Variety of New Homes














Downtown Marietta, about 20 miles north of Downtown Atlanta, is anchored by a historic main street square and is a hotbed of new residential development.

Recent efforts by the City of Marietta to attract private investment into the Downtown area have been successful - as evidenced by the vibrant Marietta Square, which boasts more than 40 eateries and 70 retail boutiques, and the numerous condo, townhome, and single-family residential projects that have commenced in the past five years.

Most of the new homes offered in Downtown Marietta today are high quality -  featuring attractive architectural style and a high level of interior finish - and available at a deep discount because they were placed on the market at the start of the downturn in the real estate market.   Low priced homes are a result of projects in foreclosure, and some are a result builders trying to move inventory.  For prospective buyers, this temporary downturn in the market creates an opportunity to buy a superior quality home within walking distance of a vibrant, thriving restaurant and retail district.
