Timeless elegance meets classic architecture in this distinguished all-brick colonial, ideally situated on one of University Heights’ most coveted, tree-lined streets. A striking sandstone-flanked entry sets the tone, welcoming you into a gracious vestibule foyer that reflects the home’s rich character and craftsmanship.
The main living spaces are designed for both refined entertaining and everyday comfort, featuring a beautifully proportioned living room that flows seamlessly into the formal dining room and sunroom—bathed in natural light and perfect for year-round enjoyment.
This residence offers 4 bedrooms and 1.5 baths, highlighted by gleaming hardwood floors throughout. The main bath is a standout, featuring both a tub and separate shower, complemented by exquisitely preserved original tile—a nod to the home’s enduring quality and style.
The kitchen provides generous storage and a charming breakfast nook, while the finished lower level offers flexible living space ideal for a media room, home office, or fitness area.
Outdoors, a private, fenced yard creates a serene setting for relaxation or entertaining. Thoughtful updates include a recently resurfaced driveway (4/26), newer hot water tank, and point-of-sale compliance for added convenience.
Located just moments from Walter Stinson Park and within close proximity to premier destinations including Case Western Reserve University, John Carroll University, University Circle, downtown Cleveland, and the I-271 corridor—this home offers an exceptional blend of location, character, and lifestyle.
A rare opportunity to own a truly classic home in one of the area’s most desirable communities.
