Set on a beautiful 1.1-acre lot in Berea, this charming 1923 home with a separate guest cottage offers a rare combination of space, character, and flexibility. Whether you’re searching for room for extended family, a private guest suite, or simply a peaceful setting with land, this property invites you to bring your vision and make it your own. The main home features 1,634 sq ft with 5 bedrooms and 2 full baths. The first floor includes two comfortable bedrooms, one ideal as a home office or library, along with a full bathroom, a large kitchen with a walk-in pantry, and first-floor laundry.

A 2.5-car garage and a partially finished bonus room in the basement provide additional flexibility.
