About This Home

As of August 2025

THIS could be THE PLACE! Very limited opportunity to own this exclusive property with ‘city in the front & river in the back’ having the Berea Town Triangle outside your front door & the Rocky River at your back deck! The location is amazing; the conveniences & nearby destinations are fabulous!
Enter the open living area which immediately draws attention to the natural light & wooded scenery through the glass doors to the back deck. The large deck overlooks the river below & was recently replaced with new Trex decking. A spacious & bright layout with tall ceilings for dining & living areas includes a woodburning fireplace. A very nicely appointed kitchen with much counterspace & cabinetry, designed for those who like to cook/entertain or just have a great kitchen. Tiled floors, granite counters, Sub-Zero refrigerator, gas cooktop with downdraft venting, built-in convection oven plus an Advantium cooker. A very comfortable primary overlooks the river & provides more natural light & beautiful views. Wood floors, WIC, primary bathroom with large tiled shower, jetted tub, dual sinks. A spare bedroom (used as an office), large linen closet & laundry room completes this level. The top level offers an additional guest bedroom & full bath. The top level features an amazing room with a beamed, vaulted ceiling with a finished loft. This room now offers a built-in wet bar & has a large closet & could be another bedroom or used as a media room/retreat space to relax or entertain. Some general FYIs: Wood floors run throughout all levels. There is an attached 2-car garage & basement space. The roof & decking recently replaced. Heating & cooling controlled at each level (smart thermostat). HOA maintains exterior common areas/elements including landscaping, fencing, decking & a heated driveway.
Coe Park, Metroparks (including Wallace Lake), Hopkins International Airport, many local shops for coffee, drinks, dining, yoga, pool, grocery store all just a short distance away.
