Long admired by passersby strolling to and from Maplewood’s beloved coffee shops, restaurants, boutiques, and community traditions like Taste of Maplewood, this Marietta Avenue home has become one of those houses people instantly recognize and always remember. With its welcoming front porch, impressive curb appeal, storybook gardens, and unmistakable charm, it naturally draws attention in every season. Inside, historic character and thoughtful updates exist in perfect balance. Massive pocket doors, a beautiful wood staircase, rich millwork, and an elegant dining room speak to the home’s timeless craftsmanship, while carefully considered improvements bring comfort and ease to everyday living. The second floor offers a true primary suite complete with an en suite bathroom, along with two additional bedrooms, convenient second-floor laundry, and an additional full bathroom in the hall. Upstairs, the finished third level creates a comfortable and versatile space with views stretching both over the lush backyard gardens and toward the vibrant energy of downtown Maplewood. And then there is the garden itself, woven so intentionally into the experience of the home that it feels less like landscaping and more like a living extension of the property’s soul. Native blooms, edible plantings, flowering trees, and thoughtfully layered greenery create a space alive with movement, color, and purpose throughout the seasons. Recognized as a Bring Conservation Home Gold Star-certified garden, the landscape is both beautiful and deeply rooted in sustainability, offering moments of quiet beauty, connection, and abundance at every turn. More than just a beautifully preserved historic home, 7316 Marietta is a place that feels deeply rooted in both community and nature. From mornings spent on the front porch watching the neighborhood come to life, to evenings surrounded by the quiet beauty of the gardens, every space invites you to slow down and stay awhile. With a presence that has quietly become part of the fabric of the neighborhood, this is a home filled with character, intention, and a story that continues to unfold with each passing season.
