About This Home

As of August 2025

Welcome to 1186 Elmwood Road in Beach Cliff II in Rocky River! Same owners for 40+ years, this lovingly cared for brick Cape Cod has beautiful character throughout that makes it truly one of a kind. The front porch is inviting and the perfect place to relax. The foyer provides a great entry space that leads into the large living room area with fireplace & wood mantle and nice big windows. Enjoy the light-filled morning room with large bay window. The dining room is spacious and open to the morning room & family room which makes it the perfect place to gather. The kitchen appliances remain and there is a big window cutout looking into the family room with brick fireplace. The added family room provides another great space, and it overlooks the beautiful & expansive backyard. Two bedrooms on the main floor with large closets and a full bath are tucked away in a separate hallway off the kitchen and/or living room. On the second floor you’ll find a big open loft space perfect for a library or extra play area, two bedrooms with large closets, an office, and a recently updated full bathroom. All throughout you will notice the beautiful natural woodwork, leaded glass windows, stained glass window, built-ins, solid wood doors with crystal doorhandles, and more! The lower level is unfinished but very spacious with a laundry room, workshop area, rec room, potting/garden shed, storage room & access from the attached garage. Enjoy the 250 ft deep back yard, Elmwood Park right on your street & Lake Erie 1 mile away!
