185 Marion Dairy Road is more than just a home peeking out from behind Lindale’s rolling hills. It’s a retreat where timeless craftsmanship meets serene living to create a lifestyle of comfort, elegance, and relaxation.
Built in 2021 by the highly respected Brooks Building Group, this custom-built home is all about quality and restraint. “It’s an understated, comfortable house where everything is done so well and nothing is over-the-top,” said Molly Steeves of Hardy Realty. From the custom iron-and-glass arched front door to the professionally landscaped grounds, every inch is thoughtfully curated.
Tucked away on 12.45 private, wooded acres in Beaver Creek Plantation, this 3-bedroom and 2.5-bathroom home offers an open main level, designed for both everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. You’ll find character-grade white oak floors, 10-foot ceilings, thick cove molding, and designer lighting that add warmth and open the space even more.

The chef’s kitchen is a true centerpiece, with custom cabinetry, solid quartz countertops, and top-of-the-line appliances including a built-in refrigerator, 6-burner gas cooktop, double ovens, warming drawer, and beverage fridge.
“The kitchen is my favorite room in the house, because it’s so open,” said homeowner Carol Knies. “The ability to customize every cabinet and drawer for exactly what I need makes the design stand out. And because it’s so open, it is great for entertaining. We can’t get people out of the kitchen when we’re putting on an event.” It’s a space that’s as functional as it is beautiful, and the oversized walk-in pantry is a dream for anyone who loves to cook or entertain.
The primary suite features a spa-like bathroom with heated marble floors and a fully customized California closet. A spacious laundry room adds convenience, while the screened-in porch with a gas fireplace offers a cozy spot to enjoy the outdoors year-round.
Downstairs, there are two additional bedrooms and a beautifully finished full bath, as well as a large unfinished space that’s perfect for a future home theater, gym, workshop, hobby room, or whatever fits your lifestyle.
The home itself was built with high-quality natural materials like thick natural stone and solid wood, including Marvin windows, spray foam installation, three HVAC units, two tankless water heaters, and a dehumidifier.
Though technically located within a neighborhood, this area is unlike any other with properties boasting 10 to 20 acres and giving residents the rare combination of community and solitude. Surrounded by 12.45 acres of land, this home offers that same rarity.
“It’s so quiet and peaceful out here, especially watching sunsets from the screened-in porch,” said homeowner David Knies. “This time of the year is perfect with the cool fall mornings and evenings. People always point it out the first time they drive up and say the view at the back of the house is like a slice of heaven. They ask how we ever leave here.”
And while the home feels worlds away from the hustle and bustle, it’s just a short drive to downtown Rome, offering easy access to dining, shopping, and cultural events.
“A rare retreat, this home offers pure tranquility and seclusion—an effortless invitation to simply exhale,” said Steeves.
For those craving a peaceful neighborhood with a special feeling of community, 185 Marion Dairy Road is a home worth discovering.
