PROPERTY INFORMATION

Country Splendor
A magnificent, sprawling compound in an idyllic setting...

Built in 3 stages from 1900 to 1930, Moxahela Estate is perched on a rise above the Chagrin Valley with dramatic eastern vistas. The name comes from a Native American word meaning "bear gulch," in reference to the deep ravine with rushing stream that runs through the property. Set on 30 lush acres in gorgeous natural surroundings, this parcel features a four-story main house, six-stall stable, swimming pool with spa, two coach houses, tennis court, and five-car garage. Wide-plank oak floors, leaded-glass windows, and hand-carved marble fireplaces grace the main rooms of the six-bedroom residence, which underwent a complete restoration in 1999 and 2000. The library retains its original panelling, which is decorated with an undulating scroll design, and the vast formal dining room has an exquisite plaster relief ceiling. Upstairs, a master suite with vaulted ceiling opens to a terrace offering views of the grounds and neighboring valley. Additional amentities include a greenhouse with a potting cottage, keeping room, and walk-in wine cellar with a decanting room. An orchard with over 300 fruit trees completes this charming picture.
