You may remember that I recently featured my sister’s neighbor, Marc, with his front porch all decorated for Fall. Marc is a decorator extraordinaire and works out of Encore Fine Furnishings in Roswell. Since you all loved his porch so much, wait until you get a gander at the inside of their house. Marc has decked the halls to the max! Prepare to be wowed!
Marc and my sis live in a nice neighborhood in Northeast Cobb County here in Marietta.
Marc decorates for every season and I always admire the front of their house every time I drive by.
The front porch greets guests and welcomes visitors for the Holidays.
Look how beautiful this wreath is!
It is gorgeous! Not sure if Marc made it, but it is really stunning.
Step inside the spacious foyer and the living room is to the right. Beautiful, traditional, but not at all stuffy.
With a grand piano, there are many touches of Christmas in this room too.
Like this pretty tree on a stand in the living room.
To the left is the dining room, all neutral and done in silvers, mercury glass and white. It is so gorgeous!
It’s hard to get the whole scope of decorating with whites and silvers, but it just sparkles and shines.
Table centerpiece.
From another angle. See how pretty it all is?
A wreath in the window and mercury glass balls on top of candlesticks complete this side table.
It was a treat to walk through and see it all.
The sideboard holds bottle brush trees and candles in snow. Lovely!
In the foyer itself, Marc placed an outdoor statue that is perfect for the season, surrounded by red poinsettias.
Looking to the staircase and into the greatroom is the huge tree. Magnificent! It’s all Christopher Radko ornaments.
How beautiful is this?
The fireplace and mantel are all aglow too.
Great room looking towards kitchen.
Side wall is equally pretty and that pass through door goes back to the dining room.
The kitchen has been updated and is purely beautiful too.
Breakfast table and island.
Breakfast table centerpiece.
Love this 3 tiered stand on the island all filled up with Christmas cheer.
This is probably my favorite piece in his house, love it!
The kitchen is all festive and glowy too with so many special little touches.
Beautiful kitchen.
See all the Santas Marc has displayed?
Going out to the sunroom is a teacart with pretties on it.
Look at this HUGE Ball canning jar. Inside is a battery candle which is so happy and pretty. Marc said he found this at the hardware store in Sylva, NC. It is the biggest Ball canning jar I’ve ever seen. It just so happens I’m going back to the Cottage next month and we might have to take a trip back to nearby Sylva.
Sideboard off the kitchen has more Christmas cheer.
Love this happy little red and white tree.
Looking back towards the greatroom.
Above on the landing upstairs looking down at the gigantic beautiful tree.
Right off the kitchen is their beautiful sunroom, all aglow in yellow paint.
It is a happy, yet calming space. Love the nativity.
This room has some great features and a pretty fruit tree.
With brick floors, what character it has. That’s one of the doggies in the house.
Pretty sparkly balls and a lantern sit on the coffee table.
Side chair and tables.
That completes the downstairs portion of Marc’s house. We will visit upstairs in the master suite, as well as the fully furnished basement. It’s all eye candy too! Be sure and come back Thursday for Part 2 and 3!
Enjoy!
So love the magnificent tree with Radko ornaments! WOWOWOW! have never seen such a HUGE Ball canning jar either, would love one of those myself. Fabulous home!
BEUTIFUL!!! The Christmas decor is beautiful, but what a lovely home. Can hardly wait to see the other rooms. Thank you for sharing.
Have a God Filled Day

How truly lovely their home is! So nice to get to see the lovely decorations and all of their pretties. Thanks for sharing.
As Candice Olsen would say “how devine”. Such a beautiful house and Christmas decorations. Every room was eye candy.
I just love this house and the last house you featured too! They really reflect the owners and are very unique. They also use a lot of COLOR. I am tired of all the white and burlap that is being used in home right now. Thank you for the great tours.
Of all the Christmas house tours I have seen in Blogdom this year, Marc’s is my favorite!
I love all of the color!! And that huge tree with Radko ornaments is gorgeous. Thanks for sharing!
This house is absolutely amazing! I was given so many ideas (for next year, of course!) And find those huge Ball jars for us.
Start to finish, it’s just stunning!
Oh so beautiful!! And you capture the beauty with your picture-taking talents! Great job. Merry Christmas!
What a beautiful home they have! As a Santa collector, it’s one of my favorite posts on your blog. To see them tastefully displayed, is delightful! Love the bottlebrush trees in the snow, the Santa in the foyer, and the kitchen is just awesome. Can’t wait to see the rest! Wish you would do a post on how they store the stuff. ;o)
My goodness, Rhoda. You find the most beautiful homes to share with us! It must take him several months to decorate and another several months to take it all down! 🙂 Gorgeous pictures!
Wow – Just Wow! I really don’t think I’ve ever seen anything like that level of decoration. So beautiful. And your photography skills – Wow again! Did you take photography courses? Anyone know of any great on-line photography courses? I’d love to know.
I love this tour. I think it might be my favorite. That tree in the great room is so beautiful.
Wow, I love Marc’s house. It truly is exquisite. It’s funny seeing that huge Ball Mason jar. I bought one that big several years ago for my sister-in-law who was collecting unique jars to showcase above her kitchen cabinets. I found hers at Wal-mart of all places for $15. I gave it to her for Christmas but I never thought of turning it into a candle holder or “snow globe” like Marc did his. I did however fill it with all sorts of kitchen towels and gadgets. I like Marc’s idea better. Thanks for sharing.
Rhoda, Marc’s home is gorgeous. He has done so much work and it shows! Simply fabulous!
Merry Christmas!!
So beautiful! Lots of ideas and inspiration, great for pinning and saving for next year.
It’s truly stunning!
AMAZING! Thank you for sharing!!!
That is one amazing home with beautiful details! I went back and looked through again because there was so much to stare at! Thanks for sharing that wonderful home!
