***Rare property and opportunity*** A private getaway in the heart of the city! Nearly 8-acre light industrial parcel with likely continuation of city-approved non-conforming residential use. Features a 3-bed/2-bath home with first-floor living, oversized 720 sqft attached garage, 1,080 sqft pole barn with 2 xl sliding doors, and 1,998 sqft outbuilding with two two-car garage doors, chicken coop and run and bonus shed. Additionally the property includes a private pond/oxbow off the Cuyahoga River at the rear of the property in a lush wooded setting.
The rear two acres may qualify for an estimated \$30K–\$60K conservation easement purchase through Cleveland Metroparks. Think of it like an option to get a rebate, currently being passed down by the seller as a bonus of purchase, to the next owner. Zoned Commercial NEC (not elsewhere classified), this property is ideal for live/work, development, or investment. Conveniently near I-480 and only 11 minutes to downtown Cleveland.
Surrounded by greenbelt Metroparks land with limited public access, this turkey and deer filled oasis offers protected privacy and a quiet setting while remaining in the heart of the city. A duplex capable setup with dual utilities, a multitude of outbuilding space, and flexible city support make it a strong fit for investors, business owners, or live/work users.
