Overview

Description

Perfectly situated on a wooded ravine lot, this striking contemporary home blends dramatic rooflines, walls of glass, and open-concept living for a truly one-of-a-kind experience with outdoor spaces to rival any resort! Entering through a private courtyard, the home opens to a spacious family room and living area designed for both connection and calm. A bright sunroom extends off the main living area as does the expansive kitchen - with marble and concrete countertops, Viking range, Sub-Zero refrigerator/freezer, dual sinks with touchless faucets, and views of the backyard pool. The owner's suite offers a peaceful retreat with a spa-inspired bath featuring double vanities, private shower room with soaking tub, and a custom California Closets system. A large secondary room upstairs currently serves as a flex but could easily function as an additional bedroom. The walkout lower level includes three additional bedrooms, two full baths, and flexible living spaces perfect for guests or family. All bedrooms offer walk out balconies or patios to capture sweeping views of the ravine setting. Down a spiral staircase you'll find an additional lower level that currently operates as a home theater! Outside is a heated saltwater pool, lush landscaping, and a fully renovated pool house with covered patio, new split system (2025) new rubber roof (2025) main roof was replaced in 2020, freshly painted exterior and new concrete driveway. Tankless water heater (2019), new furnace, HALO whole-home water filtration, new sump pump with battery backup. Originally designed by renowned Columbus architect Byron Ireland as his personal residence. Lovingly cared for and continually improved, this exceptional property has been featured in Columbus CEO, Sophisticated Living, and the Columbus Museum of Art's 20th Century Design Tour—a rare opportunity to own a true piece of Central Ohio's architectural history.
