Welcome to this very special home sited on one of the most coveted Chagrin valley locations, spanning 5 acres above the Chagrin River and backing up to over 250 acres of the Metroparks woodlands. This craftsman-styled home designed by George Clemens offers unforgettable views from every angle. It's architectural integrity is unmatched and exudes timeless charm & character. One of the many highlights of the home is the Great room featuring arched Douglas fir trusses and decorative ironwork plates that contrast perfectly with the painted details of the adjacent kitchen cabinetry, the coffered ceiling and the stair railings nearby. The design of the tapered columns and beams enhance the transition between rooms while the tongue & groove vaulted ceilings in the dining room and office keep lifting the eye throughout the home. The thoughtfully designed kitchen lends an ease for today's living with the pantry and sitting room steps away. Masterful artisanship is found in the moldings, wainscoting and hand hewn timber beams in the hallways and the 1st floor primary suite enjoying 2 separate closet rooms. Heated floors and shower enhance the ensuite bath. Upstairs a loft , 2 bedrooms and a Jack & Jill bath all offer spectacular views and maintain the 9 foot ceiling height. The golf simulator in the lower level will keep your swing in top form throughout the winter. An added bonus is The Cottage just across the driveway, perfect as an in-law suite or guest house that also keeps the craftsman style. The exterior grounds of the property are as special as the interior with extensive stonework, manicured gardens, Oklahoma flagstone patios and a water feature all adding to the magical ambience as you sit above the Chagrin Valley. This is your opportunity to own a unique, private residence across the street from the South Chagrin Reservation and within walking distance of downtown Chagrin Falls.
