Marietta, GA is a vibrant city just northwest of Atlanta, with much history.  Located in the central part of Cobb County, Marietta is very close to Downtown Atlanta.   Once a "pass through" city on US Highway 41, now it is a bustling city on Interstate 75.  Home to "The Big Chicken" and historic Marietta square, this town has something for everyone.   Marietta is also home to the 94th Airlift Wing at Dobbins Air Force Base.  Once a quiet country town, Marietta is now a thriving  city.  There is still a Plantation-Era feeling while strolling the streets of historic Marietta though.   With massive corporations such as Lockheed Martin, Marietta has an industrial side to it.   The Marietta Real Estate market consists of beautiful homes built in the 60s and 70s.  Many Marietta homes for sale, still capture the turn of the century feel.  New construction is not as dominating here, as it is in other parts of Metro Atlanta.  I would love to be your Marietta Georgia Real Estate Agent, and show you all of this Historic City has to offer!  Be sure to include this fine city in your Atlanta Georgia Real Estate search!
