This gorgeous Marietta home was originally built as a story-and-a-half Victorian cottage in 1893.

In 1901, Dr. Peter R. Cortelyou purchased the house as a wedding gift for his son, Adrian, upon his marriage to Harriett Whitlock. Harriett was the daughter of Milledge Whitlock, the proprietor of The Whitlock Inn. After a fire in 1924, the Cortelyous added a full second story and remodeled the house in the Colonial Revival Style. Following Harriett’s death in 1927, Adrian married Sarah Patton. They had a daughter, Patricia, who grew up in the home. Upon the death of Sarah Cortelyou in 1978, Patricia's daughter, Adrian, and her husband, Jim Pressley, moved into the home. The Pressleys remain in the home today, making it one of the longest-occupied homes by a single family in Marietta. Come tour this home - and many other private residences - during the Spring Ramble, April 24th-26th. The tour is being hosted by @thegeorgiatrust in partnership with @cobblandmarks. Tickets are available now at GeorgiaTrust.org.
