CHAGRIN FALLS, Ohio -- An idyllic home set in an idyllic town — that’s how Diane Russo Armington describes her listing at , located a stone’s throw from the village’s historic downtown. “Originally built in 1846, this home has seen an extensive renovation while keeping the historic charm, from the scalloped gingerbread trim to the handcrafted woodwork in the baseboards, door frames and crown molding found throughout,” she says. Priced at $1.
975 million, the Victorian-style home offers four bedrooms, three-and-a-half bathrooms and a four-car garage. “No detail was overlooked,” Armington adds. Indeed, that much is clear starting in the welcoming foyer, appointed with beautiful wainscoting and hardwood floors.
The space is open to the sophisticated living room, which showcases one of the home’s three fireplaces. The tour continues on the heart of the house, an open space that combines the dining room, kitchen and a sitting room. The kitchen features high-end appliances by Wolf, Viking and Sub-Zero.
A cozy family room is one step up off the kitchen. The bedrooms are highlighted by the primary suite, featuring automated curtains, a luxurious spa-like bathroom with heated floors, and its own deck shaded by an 80-year-old oak tree. Downstairs, the partially finished basement is equipped with a dog wash and is currently used as an exercise room.
The outdoor amenities begin with the three-season covered patio. From there, the private garden is the ideal spot for gath.
