Step into a home where nearly a century of character meets the comfort and livability of today. Built in 1922, this well maintained, distinctive 3-bed, 2-bath home offers 1,432 sq ft above grade and sits on just over half an acre in one of Mentor’s charming, established neighborhoods, where coved streets with mature trees and uniquely designed homes create a setting all their own. Entering the front door, the craftsmanship of another era takes center stage. Hardwood floors, substantial moldings, rich mahogany trim and original woodwork carry through the living and dining rooms, while a gas fireplace adds warmth and character. The beautifully restored staircase leading to the second floor, complete with a built-in hall organizer is a wonderful example of the craftsmanship and storage incorporated into homes of this period. The eat-in kitchen provides an inviting space for everyday meals, while 3 spacious bedrooms offer ample closet space. Most memorable is the screened-in porcha wonderful spot for summer evenings, morning coffee or a good book while enjoying the surrounding greenery. And then there is the backyard, which feels like a private garden retreat, filled with established perennials that provide changing color and interest throughout the seasons. Relax on the deck with a glass of wine or cup of tea and enjoy a setting that feels worlds away from the conveniences just minutes from your door. The finished basement expands the possibilities, with flexible areas that could accommodate a home office, workshop, or teen space, along with a traditional root cellar and storage. A detached two-car garage provides room for vehicles, hobbies, lawn equipment and outdoor gear. All of this is tucked into a quiet sought-after neighborhood yet minutes away from I-90, Route 2, shopping, and everyday amenities. This is more than just a house, it is an opportunity to own the craftsmanship, architecture and established surroundings that simply cannot be duplicated today.
