Description

For the first time since its custom construction, this remarkable ranch on a quiet Berea cul-de-sac is ready to welcome its next chapter. Loved by the same family for decades, the home carries a warm sense of legacy — especially in the owner’s favorite place: the dining table overlooking the park-like backyard that gently abuts the Metroparks. It’s a peaceful vantage point that truly defines the soul of this property.
The chef-inspired kitchen is a standout — offering incredible storage, abundant counter space, a thoughtful layout, & skylights that fill the room with natural light. It’s the kind of kitchen that makes cooking feel effortless and gathering feel natural.
Designed with comfort and openness in mind, this over 3,000 sq ft home begins with a welcoming foyer that transitions into spacious, character-rich living areas. The great room features beamed ceilings, warm wood details, and a beautiful fireplace that anchors the space with charm and presence.
The spacious master suite, two generous bedrooms and 2.5 baths, create easy one-floor living with room to spread out. Every space feels intentional, comfortable, and connected to the outdoors.
Step outside to one of the property’s signature features: nearly 1000 sq ft of premium mineral-based, water impervious decking, perfectly positioned to take in the wooded backdrop. A charming pergola and the serene, park-like setting make the backyard a true retreat.
The home also includes owned solar panels (22 panels, 7.2 kW) paired with a Tesla Powerwall battery backup, allowing the current owners to enjoy about six months each year with no electric bill and dramatically reduced costs the rest of the year — a modern advantage rarely found in homes of this style.
Moments from downtown Berea, the airport, the Metroparks, and major commuter routes. Homes like this, with such a thoughtful design and lifelong stewardship, are rare — and this one is ready to be cherished by its next owner. Appraisal & 3D tour available
