Property Description
Exceptional value in one of Shaker Heights’ most coveted neighborhoods, 2,244 sq ft, 5 bedrooms and 3.5 baths in a landmark 1930 Fernway Colonial designed by the celebrated firm Nichols & Fritzsche. Rich original woodwork, gleaming hardwood floors, and the craftsmanship that defines Shaker Heights’ architectural legacy. The main floor is made for both gracious entertainment & everyday comfort. A center entrance foyer opens to a generous living room with a gas fireplace. Just beyond, a spectacular study/office tucked behind elegant French doors features built-in bookcases and a dramatic wall of windows that floods the space with natural light. A formal dining room and bright eat-in kitchen with a brand new floor complete the main level, along with a convenient half bath. Upstairs, four well-proportioned bedrooms include a master suite with Jack & Jill bath and three additional rooms served by a full hall bath. The third floor delivers a private fifth bedroom with its own full bath, ideal for guests, an au pair, or a home office plus a walk-in cedar closet and generous storage. The partially finished lower level adds a recreation room, dedicated laundry, workshop area, pantry/wine cellar, and abundant storage. Recent updates include a new kitchen floor, freshly painted interior and exterior, upgraded electrical panel, and newer boiler. Seller has addressed inspection safety items. All kitchen appliances remain. Detached 2-car garage. Shaker Heights POS compliant. Seller-offered home warranty. Steps from the newly rebuilt Fernway Elementary, close to Shaker Heights High School, parks, shopping, and transit. Rarely does this much home come available at this price point in Fernway, don’t miss it.
