An extraordinary opportunity to create a private estate in one of Novelty’s most coveted communities. Positioned on 3 acres within the prestigious Music Hill subdivision and the award-winning West Geauga School District, this exceptional new-construction residence is designed for the buyer who values privacy, architectural integrity, exceptional craftsmanship, and the ability to make a home distinctly their own. The residence is being thoughtfully crafted with an emphasis on scale, proportion, and refined livability. A gracious first-floor primary suite provides a private retreat, while the heart of the home is centered around a sophisticated culinary environment featuring both a full chef’s kitchen and a separate prep kitchen. Expansive living and entertaining spaces are designed for intimate gatherings as well as grand-scale entertaining, with carefully considered architectural details carried throughout. Unlike a completed spec home, this residence offers something increasingly rare at this level: the opportunity to participate in the creation of the home itself. With construction underway, the future owner can still influence numerous finishes, materials, fixtures, and design selections, working with the builder to create a residence tailored specifically to their lifestyle and aesthetic. The result will be a home that feels curated rather than conventional—personal rather than predictable. Scheduled for completion in December 2026, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a substantial new-construction estate in Music Hill and shape its final expression from the ground up. For the discerning buyer seeking privacy, permanence, exceptional design, and a residence that cannot simply be replicated, this is a truly singular offering.

Why choose between space and location when you could have both? It feels like the country, but with the convenience of 10 minutes to Chesterland shopping, 12 to Chagrin Falls ice cream, and highways just a short drive away! Inside, the kitchen is open to the dining & living room, so you're never actually cooking alone. Birthday parties, homework, holidays...they all just flow within the same space. A new refrigerator and oven in 2026. Just past the kitchen, the deck looks out over a backyard big enough for the pool, the playset, and a beautiful wooded backdrop. And when you need more room to spread out, the huge family room absolutely delivers. The fireplace is flanked by generous built-ins and a flex room currently pulling double duty as a playroom, though it's just as happy becoming a home office or a library. A walk-in pantry and the tucked-away laundry keep the practical stuff handled without ever getting in the way of the fun stuff. Upstairs, 4 roomy bedrooms, but the primary suite is where this house shows off a little. Renovated bath with tiled shower, soaking tub, double vanity and storage for days. The huge walk-in closet already has a custom organization system, and a 2nd closet was added in '26...because sometimes happily ever after starts with TWO closets. Four garage bays total, so there's room for the cars, the toys, and the projects, with space to spare. Above the garage, a heated room is ready for whatever you need, and it's already plumbed, so a future wet bar isn't just a someday idea, you've got a head start! There is an oversized mudroom with built-in bench seating, because backpacks and muddy shoes need their own landing spot. Outside a full tear-out asphalt driveway '26, new deck railings '26, a professionally regraded backyard, and a Generac generator '25 so the lights stay on no matter what. More space. More flexibility. More backyard. More reasons to love being home. This is the kind of house families grow into, and almost never grow out of.

Mornings start with birdsong instead of traffic in the first floor master; evenings end on a deck that overlooks trees, not neighbors. Inside, 4,160 square feet of freshly renovated living space — 5 bedrooms, 3 full and 2 half baths — blends timeless character with everything a 2026 buyer actually wants: brand-new solid white oak hardwood (2,000 sq. ft.), two and a half fully remodeled updated electrical, fresh paint throughout, and a brand-new roof and exterior stain so the big-ticket items are already done. An efficient oil-fired boiler keeps the home comfortable through Northeast Ohio winters, with two-zone cooling for summer. Located in West Geauga Local School District, minutes from Chagrin Falls and the Geauga Park District. For those who want even more room to roam, an adjacent 8.04-acre wooded parcel is available for separate purchase. There is room to build, room to breathe, room to make it yours. All information is deemed accurate but not guaranteed. Buyer to verify all information important to their decision to purchase. Note: Adjacent 8.04 acre lot also available for purchase (MLS#:5229138)

Nestled within 25 acres of meadows and woodland, this private retreat offers a rare blend of architectural sophistication and tranquil seclusion—just minutes from dining, shopping, and parks. Thoughtfully reimagined by its current owners, the home features refined updates and extensive landscaping that highlight its natural setting. Originally built by renowned builder Bruce Thomas as a family sanctuary, the residence exemplifies exceptional craftsmanship and timeless vision. Floor-to-ceiling windows frame sweeping views of two naturally fed, swimmable lakes, bringing the outdoors into nearly every room. At the front, broad vistas of the shared lake greet you; at the rear, serene reflections shimmer across your private water expanse. The newly refreshed kitchen showcases custom cabinetry, quartz surfaces, Miele and Wolfe appliances, dual sinks, and an induction range. It flows into an open dining area, inviting both intimate dinners and lively gatherings. Inside, soaring ceilings, walnut floors, and fireplaces combine comfort with understated luxury. A reimagined mudroom—complete with farm sink, dishwasher, and built-ins—adds practicality near the first-floor laundry. The primary suite is a retreat within itself, with a sitting room and fireplace, three bathrooms, and three walk-in closets. Upstairs, four bedrooms and three full baths provide generous accommodations, with a second laundry for convenience. The finished lower level includes a private office, full bath, and secure storage. A dual-purpose barn anchors the estate: upstairs, an expansive entertainment space; downstairs, functional storage—all in rustic-modern style. Six terraces and patios are strategically placed for sunrises, lakeside moments, and stargazing. With geothermal heating and cooling, architectural integrity, and refined finishes, this property is more than a home—it’s a legacy estate that combines luxurious rural living with unmatched proximity to urban convenience.

You're going to be excited about this 2 for 1 set-up only a 7 minute drive to downtown Chagrin Falls. The house has a 1st floor bedroom with ensuite, 1st floor laundry, pantry, 2nd full bathroom, formal living, dining & family room. There are treetop views through sliding rear doors off the family room, and the fenced yard is whatever you need it to be — a dog run, a garden, or a Tuesday evening with a drink and nowhere to be. Upstairs, the bedrooms are genuinely oversized (not "fits a queen if you angle it" oversized — actually oversized). 4 beds up share a 3rd full bathroom. The main house has a new HVAC ('25), well pump replaced ('25) and a freshly pumped septic in '25 — updates that aren't glamorous but ABSOLUTELY matter. And a 3 car ATTACHED garage? Yes, please! The house sits closer to the road than you might expect so know that going in, but once you're on the property, the setting does its job: it's peaceful, and surprisingly removed from everything while being close to everywhere you want to be. Then there's the all electric bonus cottage. It has its own kitchen, laundry, full bath and loft and its OWN two-car garage. The cottage is the kind of bonus space that makes you rethink what a property can do. A private retreat for a parent or independent adult child, a studio or office you can actually leave behind at the end of the day, a guest space that gives everyone their own front door — the math works a lot of different ways here. This property has options most properties won't give you. West Geauga Schools. Seven minutes to the CF Village. One acre. Someone's going to figure out how good this is — it might as well be you. Selling as-is.

5 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 5199007 MLS

You're going to be excited about this 2 for 1 set-up only a 7 minute drive to downtown Chagrin Falls. The house has a 1st floor bedroom with ensuite, 1st floor laundry, pantry, 2nd full bathroom, formal living, dining & family room. There are treetop views through sliding rear doors off the family room, and the fenced yard is whatever you need it to be — a dog run, a garden, or a Tuesday evening with a drink and nowhere to be. Upstairs, the bedrooms are genuinely oversized (not "fits a queen if you angle it" oversized — actually oversized). 4 beds up share a 3rd full bathroom. The main house has a new HVAC ('25), well pump replaced ('25) and a freshly pumped septic in '25 — updates that aren't glamorous but ABSOLUTELY matter. And a 3 car ATTACHED garage? Yes, please!
