What's special
Remarkable English Brick Colonial on gorgeous 1+ acres in the desirable Fairfax Triangle neighborhood of Cleveland Hts. Features beautifully appointed spaces and a special floor plan, ideal for both daily living and entertaining, with over 4000SF, 5 bedrooms, and 4½ baths. Enter a grand Foyer with an elegant reverse staircase that connects the main rooms for perfect flow. Off the Foyer, an oversized Living Room with rich natural wood trim, a woodburning fireplace, and double French doors leads to a large sunroom bathed in natural light from three sides of windows, a private retreat overlooking the picturesque tree-framed backyard that opens directly to a stone terrace for dining and entertaining. The sun-lit Dining Room extends to a glorious bay-windowed alcove opening to the terrace and yard. The gourmet eat-in kitchen has abundant counter and cabinet spaces, a large center-island, a butler's pantry, and a built-in desk. A wood paneled Family Room with original built-in bookshelves and a woodburning fireplace is a cozy retreat. A well-placed powder room off the foyer adds convenience for guests. Gleaming hardwood floors throughout the main level showcase this fabulous home’s architectural details. A private second staircase adds flexibility and practicality. The second floor has four bedrooms, three full baths, and a dedicated laundry room with a full wall of cabinetry. Two of five bedrooms were combined into a more-than-generous light-filled space for use as a primary bedroom, a serene home office, a nursery, a music room, or a flexible family gathering area. The generous third floor, a perfect self-contained guest suite for comfort and privacy with access from the first and second floors by private staircase, has a spacious living room with a built-in desk and study area, a full bath, and another private bedroom. Meticulously maintained with mature beautiful landscaping, this truly special home is a masterwork of timeless architecture and thoughtful design!
