This charming 1847 farmhouse sits on over nine bucolic acres, adjacent to the Chagrin River which includes wooded areas, meadows, and a pond. Updated with an eye to the past, the house has both cozy nooks and an open floor plan for private and entertainment spaces. The great room just off the entry, heated with an economical wood stove, boasts oak wood flooring, a separate dining space, and a newer oversized sliding door to the private rear deck. The large eat-in kitchen has both a breakfast bar and dining area along with updated appliances, concrete countertops, a beamed ceiling, and the original plank wood flooring. A living room with exposed beams, bay window, and plank wood flooring that exudes relaxation. A private and conveniently located office with custom bookshelves and cabinetry is just a step or two from the Kitchen. Spacious mudroom and laundry area conveniently located off the back entry and kitchen. The stairway to the second floor leads to a roomy landing, a full bath (with handsome claw foot tub), and the home's three bedrooms. Plenty of storage in the walk-up attic area, expansive and tidy basement. Six stall barn with electricity can also be used for parking. Formerly a sheep farm-this could be your future hobby farm. Updates include newer shades, neutral paint refresh. Full house generator connection, electrical, and updated Pella windows in second and third floors.
