A distinctive offering in highly sought-after Beachcliff II, a neighborhood of Rocky River, this 1996-built center-hall Colonial brings together the architectural presence of a classic Rocky River home with the scale and functionality of newer construction. Lush, carefully layered landscaping and a brick-paver and sandstone approach create a memorable arrival. Inside, 9-foot ceilings elevate the main-level living spaces and reinforce the home's generous proportions. The expansive kitchen is truly the heart of the home, with substantial granite work surfaces, abundant white cabinetry, a gas cooktop with stainless hood, breakfast-bar seating and a bright casual dining area overlooking the rear grounds. Granite finishes continue throughout the home, while hardwood flooring in the kitchen and hallways adds warmth and continuity. A fireplace with a substantial wood mantel anchors the adjoining living space. Four bedrooms and 2½ baths include a spacious primary bedroom with en-suite bath, creating a comfortable private retreat. The backyard is equally distinctive. Gorgeous mature landscaping surrounds an in-ground pool with automatic cover, creating a beautifully private setting. Brick-paver and sandstone entertaining areas provide room for outdoor dining and gathering, while the sandstone sitting wall along the pool adds natural texture, architectural interest and additional seating. 1996 construction, a center-hall Colonial plan, 9-foot ceilings, an oversized granite kitchen, exceptional landscaping and a private pool setting distinguish this Beachcliff II home. The air conditioner, refrigerator, furnace and hot water tank are all less than three years old. Association dues provide access to private Wagar Beach. Close to Bradstreet's Landing beach and fishing pier, schools, parks, boat ramps, shopping and Cleveland Yachting Club.
