BROADVIEW HEIGHTS, Ohio — Perched atop a wooded hill, the home at 8851 Spring Valley Drive feels more Stars Hollow than Broadview Heights. Built in 1994, the four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath home draws inspiration from Victorian architecture, with a turret and wraparound porch.
“This home makes me Hallmark happy,” said owner Wendy Dralle. “Every time we pull up the hill to our ‘little chateau sur le coteau,’ it’s always felt like coming home to a romantic escape from the world.”
The property is on the market for $824,500.
“You hear people say a house has good bones,” said listing agent Kelly Mahoney of The Agency Cleveland. “This home has something even better. It has soul.”
Inside, a soaring foyer welcomes visitors with hardwood floors underfoot and a sweeping staircase on one side. On the other, the living room has a bay window and access to the porch. A columned archway connects it to the formal dining room.
A fireplace with a marble surround and wood mante anchors the family room. The adjoining kitchen features custom cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, a center island and a granite-topped peninsula. A bay-window breakfast nook offers views of the surrounding woods. Nearby, a home office’s custom built-ins is perfect for books, media or memorabilia.
Upstairs, the primary suite includes a turreted sitting area and an en suite bathroom with a double vanity, soaking tub and shower.
The finished lower level adds flexibile living space with a large recreation room and a second kitchen.
Outside, the wraparound porch overlooks the landscaped yard, while mature trees surround much of the property. A heated driveway and brick walkway provide convenience and curb appeal.
“During the holidays, there is nothing more magical than the site of this home glowing on the hill top amidst the surrounding winter wonderland,” Dralle said.
