Single Family Residence In Chagrin Falls

Impeccably restored 7-acre English cottage overlooking McFarland Creek, offered substantially furnished and professionally decorated. One of the community’s most recognized homes, this 1929 stone storybook estate is ideally suited for an equestrian lifestyle, a gentleman’s farm, or those simply seeking acreage, McFarland creek frontage and privacy. From the road, people have wondered for generations about the inside and it is every bit as special as the setting. Belgian block granite winds past stone pillars to a home where someone knew exactly what to preserve. Inside, the great room rises to soaring ceilings, leaded glass catching the morning light, the original fireplace anchoring the room as it has for nearly a century. Period wainscoting, wrought iron, and detailed craftsmanship are beautifully intact. It feels warm, inviting, and present. The kitchen features Calacatta Vagli marble and handmade Zellige tile. A 1st floor primary suite with a marble bath inlaid with mother of pearl. An architect-designed sunroom that reads as though it always belonged. A second-floor sitting room, finished third-floor escape, and rooms that flex to any life. The home is offered substantially furnished, nearly every piece curated by a designer for each room. Since 2023, the current owners have invested over 1.2 million dollars with a passion to carry the iconic home forward. A full systems modernization. Restored slate roof. A rebuilt bridge to engineer specs. An ambitious undertaking buried the original below-grade garage to build a new one at grade, with a framed suite above ready to finish. The grounds were designed and irrigated end to end: the kind of landscape that only deepens with time. Outside, a new set of stone steps descend to the water, and a firepit anchors the new patio. All the romance of its origins and the reliability of today. Welcome home, to a place that is private, gracious, and one of a kind. Its finest chapter is the one about to be written.
