If you have been searching for a home with character, history, privacy and storybook charm without sacrificing modern conveniences, you may have just found it. Originally built in 1888 as a one room schoolhouse, this truly one of a kind Richmond Heights home has been completely remodeled while thoughtfully preserving the character that makes it so special. Even the original school bell remains with the property, a wonderful reminder of the home's remarkable history. Inside, the home has been opened up to create a spacious, comfortable floor plan filled with warmth and architectural character. Beautifully restored original hardwood floors blend seamlessly with modern updates throughout, while three fireplaces create cozy gathering spaces and add to the warmth and charm of the home. A charming sunroom/sitting room provides an inviting place to relax, read or simply enjoy the peaceful surroundings. The remodeled kitchen features stainless steel appliances and updated finishes, while three beautifully renovated full bathrooms showcase distinctive details including copper sinks, tiled showers and a soaking tub with jets. The home offers four bedrooms, including a large primary suite with a private en suite bath. One additional bedroom features a Murphy bed, creating the perfect flexible space for guests, a home office or both. Cedar closets add another special touch rarely found in newer homes. Step outside and the setting becomes just as impressive. Situated on a gorgeous, oversized lot high above Euclid Creek, the property offers mature trees, privacy and beautiful wooded views. Enjoy morning coffee or evening gatherings from the rear deck and patio overlooking the trees and creek valley. The original school bell now sits in the backyard, adding another charming piece of history to this unforgettable setting. The property also features fresh exterior paint, an attached two car garage, additional parking pad and a 2023 hot water tank.
Historic property! Positioned on a bluff high above the Euclid Creek, this 4 bedroom 1.5 bath home was originally built in 1888 as a one room school house- the original school bell still rings in the front yard! An addition and some renovations over the past century bring it to its current configuration, with spacious rooms, an attached garage, an office and 3 fireplaces. House is ready for a new owner and finishing touches to make this a very special home!
