Property Description
Two Homes. One Peaceful Property.
This rare 1.29-acre retreat offers not just a home, but a lifestyle. Set on a quiet dead-end street, it's private and serene, yet still convenient to Richmond, Berea, and I-75. Perfect for those seeking a peaceful country setting with flexibility for family, hobbies, and outdoor enjoyment.
Main Home (1,860 sq ft)
The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 1.25 baths on the main level, plus a spacious upstairs bonus room with closet — ideal for a home office, craft space, or play area. Original hardwood floors in multiple rooms add warmth and character, while the remodeled kitchen with island breakfast bar and stainless appliances makes entertaining or casual meals effortless. Relax in the living room by the propane fireplace and enjoy sunsets through the large picture window, creating a cozy, inviting atmosphere year-round.
Cottage (600 sq ft, Fully Functional, Year-Round)
The separate 1-bedroom cottage is fully equipped for independent living and offers a rare opportunity for multi-generational living. Perfect for an aging parent who still enjoys independence, an adult child or college student who wants privacy, or guests seeking their own retreat, it features a full kitchen, walk-in shower, and tile floors throughout. Glass sliding doors open to a small garden-facing patio—ideal for morning coffee with sunrise views. The cottage also includes a vintage clawfoot tub that needs finishing and an attached open shed/barn with built-in shelving, providing both charm and practical storage.
Land & Lifestyle
Step outside to a back porch that spills into a fenced backyard with mature landscaping, providing privacy and a serene outdoor experience. The greater property is a gardener's dream, thoughtfully landscaped with walking paths throughout the gardens. Currently, there are numerous perennials on the property, including edibles like thornless blackberries & raspberries, strawberries, blueberries, figs, grapes, hazelnuts, and asparagus. Landscaped with a variety of trees, shrubs, and perennials, the gardens burst forth in the spring with abundance, but there is something beautiful blooming year round. With over an acre, the land is also flexible — easily adapted for animals, expanded play space, or additional outdoor living areas.
High-speed fiber internet keeps you connected to the world, while the peaceful gardens ground you in nature.
