12114 Hotchkiss Road

The best of both worlds! Located in a private lake community, imagine summers filled with swimming, canoeing, paddleboarding and fishing and then heading back to your peaceful, wooded oasis. The ultimate charmer, this darling cottage has just the right mix of thoughtful updates and cottage chic elements. First floor living with room to finish the walkout lower level gives this home a BIG opportunity to expand the finished footprint! Oversized 2 car attached garage, a greenhouse (2022), and several outdoor living spaces--this ranch lives large! The main level has an open and airy feel between the kitchen & main living room--a great entertaining feature. Off the kitchen is a bonus room to use as your office, craft room, large summer dining area--whatever your needs, it's sure to meet them with loads of light, charming knotty pine accent walls, and a sliding door out to a sweet stone patio (2018). Newer LVP flooring in the bonus room, mudroom and kitchen add a fresh, Scandinavian design element to the space. 2 bedrooms with corner windows (and a peek-a-boo view of the lake!) have ample closets. The full bathroom was tastefully renovated and a thoughtful privacy window was added to allow natural light into the space--so clever! The lower level is a great size with a newer sliding glass door leading out to another patio & the garden--finish it off and add a huge rec room or 3rd bedroom or simply use it as it is! Laundry area, mechanicals & plenty of additional storage in the basement as well. So many notable improvements: New roof (2022), septic replaced in 2008 (2 1000 gallon tanks), Jeld-Wen replacement windows throughout (2006), updated Kinetico system (2016), french drains around the perimeter of the home (2006). Meticulous landscaping, meticulous maintenance, incredible opportunity. The Ohio Department of Education ranked West Geauga Schools 10th in the state (out of over 650 districts!) and 1st in Geauga County. Sale includes five parcels. Welcome home.
