A rare find in Shaker Heights! A true expression of mid-century design, this home features rich wood accents, open-beam ceilings, and the stunning centerpiece, a sculptural floating staircase. Walls of glass invite natural light, creating a seamless connection between indoors and out. This architecturally significant home was designed by famed architect Samuel Popkins in 1954. Its second owner maintained its integrity and made thoughtful updates. The living and dining rooms flow together with striking visual impact—anchored by built-ins that elevate form and function in true mid-century style. The retro-chic kitchen and baths plus 3 bedrooms complete the main level. On the second floor, expansive flex space offers endless versatility. Virtually staged as a luxurious primary suite, it shows how easily an open room can accommodate a sleeping area, home office and reading area, and a media and lounging zone. With a large room ready to be built out as a walk-in closet and rough plumbing in place for a future full bath, it is ready to evolve with your vision. Or, use your imagination to design an art/yoga/fitness studio, a playroom for little kids, a media and game room for teens or adults—whatever your heart desires! Outside, enjoy the private patio on a lot framed by mature trees. Set in a vibrant, walkable neighborhood, you cannot beat this location. Just steps from Larchmere’s beloved restaurants, antique shops, and art galleries along with the joyful weekend bustle of farmers markets and concerts at Shaker Square. Looking for a peaceful escape? Walk over to the Nature Center to delight in gardens and birdwatching or take a tranquil stroll around the Lower Shaker Lakes. The world renowned Museum of Art, Cleveland Orchestra, universities, and hospitals are only minutes away too. This is a wonderful place to call home.
