Historical Charm Meets Modern Scale: The Hanna Estate Legacy
Experience a unique piece of Willoughby Hills history with this expansive 4,800 plus-square-foot residence, originally part of the prestigious Hanna Mansion Estate. Situated on a private 1.25-acre lot, the home is introduced by a sweeping circular driveway. The grand foyer, featuring a signature six-foot-wide staircase, sets a tone of timeless scale. The heart of the home is a 32x20 gourmet kitchen outfitted with hand-scraped bamboo flooring, center island, granite countertops, and a light-filled breakfast room with glass ceiling and natural light. Entertaining is effortless across two oversized living parlors flanking the staircase--each anchored by decorative wood-burning/gas fireplaces--and a formal dining room detailed with classic wainscoting and chandelier. The floor plan is uniquely designed with two primary suites: the smaller main-level with 11-foot ceilings and private deck access, and a second-level sanctuary featuring a sauna, jetted tub, and walk-in shower. Two additional bedrooms and 2 full baths plus a convenient upstairs laundry complete the second level. Outdoors, the private wooded backyard serves as a quiet retreat, complete with a swimming pool, invisible fence, basement access and a four-car detached garage. A rare blend of historical significance and contemporary comfort. Ready for paint and carpet updates to your personal taste, the home is priced to sell. Make this piece of history yours.
