Welcome to your dream home, gracefully nestled on a breathtaking 5-acre wooded lot bordering the Chagrin River. A circular driveway leads you beneath a grand portico and inside, a beautiful two-story foyer with curved staircase is both welcoming and elegant. The front sitting room is large & private, offering a great first floor office option. A spacious dining room is certainly large enough for your more formal meals, and at the heart of the home, an exceptional great room with cathedral ceilings, a dramatic floor-to-ceiling fireplace and plenty of windows, drawing the outside in. The kitchen was designed for an entertainer so the chef can stay connected to guests in the great room, at the breakfast bar or lounging in the impressive vaulted morning room. The charm and sophistication of the 2021 screened in porch addition could be the star of the show with its vaulted wood ceiling, recessed electric fireplace & doors leading out to the paver patio. A bedroom & full bath on the 1st floor provide perfect accommodations for guests. Upstairs, there are 4 more beautifully appointed bedrooms. The large owner's suite has double sinks, tons of closets and--surprise! A 16x11 bonus room with charming window seat to use as a dressing room, reading room, or even nursery. Downstairs, the massive rec room, finished in 2024 has extra tall ceilings, daylight windows and access to the backyard. This lower level is ready to be the room that hosts ALL the FUN. There is a full bathroom on the lower level as well, such a thoughtful addition. Direct river access for canoeing a short way to the nearby 160-acre Bass Lake Preserve, perfect for fishing or hiking adventures.
