CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio -- One look at the cottage-style home at 8061 Chagrin Road and you might have a hard time believing you’re 30 minutes from Downtown Cleveland and not somewhere in the English countryside.

“The home is tucked away in a pristine natural setting with a creek running through the property,” says listing specialist Jen Waters of The Young Team, Luxury Real Estate. “The bucolic, storybook setting perfectly complements the whimsical character of the home. When you step onto the property, you feel transported into another era.”

Situated on seven wooded acres, the home offers four bedrooms and five bathrooms (two full) in 3,130 sq. ft. plus a three-car garage. Priced at $1.395 million, the 1929-built home blends old-world charm with modern amenities.

“While the home is move-in ready with meticulous renovations throughout the house completed by Meredith Wearsch of MAW Interiors, there is plenty of room for the new owner to outfit the property to meet their needs,” says Waters. “The home has multiple flex spaces that can be furnished in many ways, plus there is a two-stall horse barn behind the house that could be used as a studio, workshop, or, with a little elbow grease, a guest house.”

The timeless character of the home is evident immediately upon entry through the foyer and into the light-filled great room, which boasts soaring ceilings, leaded glass windows, newly installed floors and the original travertine fireplace and wrought iron stair rail. The adjacent dining room is full of period details including wainscoting on the walls and the moldings on the doorway and the base of the light fixture. French doors lead to the sunroom, bringing a part of the natural outside surroundings in.

The kitchen has been completely reimagined with Calacatta Vagli marble counters, handmade Zellige tile backsplash, stylish appliances and a custom range hood over the double oven. The primary suite is also located on the first floor and encompasses a large bedroom, a walk-in closet and a luxurious bathroom with marble tile with Mother of Pearl inlay and alabaster and brass wall sconces.

Head upstairs and you’ll find three additional bedrooms, any of which can be repurposed into a home gym or office, plus one and a half bathrooms and a solarium. The newly finished flex space on the third level is an ideal spot for a media room.

The outdoor space includes a deck and a gazebo, but much of the backyard is a blank slate for additional landscaping and gathering areas. Bring your imagination.
