Shaker Heights, OH 44120

Considered by many as one of the most beautiful and gracious homes in NE Ohio, this majestic Tudor/Jacobethan masterpiece is nestled within the revered landscape of Shaker Heights. The present owners refer to themselves as "great stewards" and have meticulously and lovingly restored and renovated this masterpiece since their ownership began in 2009. The restoration list is in the supplements and is as descriptive as the work itself. The home appears in both Richard Campen's book "Distinguished Homes of Shaker Heights" (page 59) and "Tudor Revival Homes in America from 1890 to the Present" by Lee Goff. Often referred to as "The Horvitz home, Samuel Horvitz commissioned famed architect Reynolds H. Hinsdale to design this extraordinary residence, which remained in the Horvitz family for 60 years. The present owners have lived here for 15 years and are just the third owners of this 1929 historic, award-winning residence. The restoration is a testament to bespoke craftsmanship and timeless design throughout the house. The kitchen restoration, expertly conceived by Chuck Fazio, seamlessly integrates modern functionality with the original architectural ethos of the home. Every element, from the cabinetry to the meticulously selected stone, upholds the integrity of the home's illustrious heritage. Other improvements include a completely redesigned, spacious and modernized primary bedroom suite, a spectacular wine cellar, and many other exceptional features. The embodiment of refined living extends beyond the confines of the interior, as the estate unveils its "happy places" within the enchanting embrace of both Japanese and English gardens. These verdant sanctuaries, meticulously curated and nurtured, evoke a sense of wonder and tranquility that transcends the ordinary, inviting inhabitants to bask in the splendor of nature's embrace.
