Custom Kraftech Neo-Colonial on a wooded lot with a seven-tree fruit orchard in front and dual walkouts in back—one to a terrace, the other, a private mineral pool surrounded by wildflowers. Built above spec with ultra-rare and exotic Ruby Blue granite counters, custom cabinetry, and a three-sided fireplace. Includes a rarely-done-at-the-time Low-E Jeld-Wen window upgrade for lifetime efficiency and a second-generation on-demand hot water system (upgraded in 2016 from original first-generation tankless system). Updated in the early 2020s with a corrugated metal roof, gutter helmets, and solar panels with two Powerwalls. The lower level includes a full gym with infrared sauna and a stained-glass studio, plus custom stained-glass installations throughout.

What the owner loves about this home
Crooked River House is peaceful, private, and alive with purpose. The backyard opens directly into the Sanguine Forest—a true private park with a bonfire clearing and walking trail under old trees. The mineral pool is a private retreat for real restoration, surrounded by wildflowers and forest air. The seven-tree fruit orchard out front marks the seasons. It’s minutes from Cuyahoga Valley National Park and Brandywine Falls, yet completely its own world. Evenings often mean firelight, forest sounds, and the kind of stillness that’s hard to find anywhere else. Built for self-sufficiency with solar power, Powerwalls, Low-E windows, and a metal roof, the house runs efficiently while staying connected to nature. Living here means balance—between modern design, energy independence, and the calm rhythm of the forest.
