luxury houses with terrace for sale Chardon, United States

There are homes that impress, and those that redefine what it means to inhabit architecture. Playmore belongs to the latter. Perched at the second highest point in Lake County with sweeping views to Lake Erie, this is more than a residence, it is a rare architectural statement. Originally built in 1929 to serve as the primary home of Cleveland architect Benjamin Hubbell, the home has been thoughtfully expanded and reimagined, blending historic character with modern livability. A winding half-mile private drive leads through curated grounds before revealing the stone façade and gabled rooflines. Inside, a three-story reception hall anchors the home, connecting spaces with sculptural clarity. Throughout, craftsmanship rises to the level of art—hand-carved woodwork, ceiling frescos, and imported marble define interiors of exceptional distinction. A grand salon transitions to a richly paneled, museum-quality library. The kitchen, crowned by a bespoke Tiffany skylight, balances function with architectural beauty. A 3,000-square-foot entertainment wing offers a private, club-like experience with its own entrance. A billiards area flows into a cocktail lounge, where a custom Harley-Davidson—displayed in glass and light—serves as a striking focal point. Doors open to expansive stone terraces, bocce courts, a koi pond, and a resort-style pool, creating a seamless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. Under the guidance of a world-renowned landscape architect, over 20,000 trees were planted to perfect the bucolic English gardens surrounding the home, and the property is surrounded by the Holden Arboretum on 3 sides, ensuring serenity for years to come. The surrounding acreage is beautifully wooded with winding trails that cut through the forest, leading to a campground and firepit nestled on the hillside. At once residence, gallery, and retreat, Playmore is a singular estate—designed not just to be lived in, but experienced. Estate can be offered furnished with art, price upon request.

For the one who refuses to settle, this is not just a lakefront home, it is one of the rarest waterfront opportunities on the east side of Cleveland. Set on a pristine acre with one of the largest private sandy beaches along Lake Erie, this custom 3 story estate is the kind of property that simply cannot be recreated. Designed for the bold, the accomplished, and the generational thinker, the home offers uninterrupted Lake Erie views, soaring ceilings, and a lifestyle crafted for elevated indoor outdoor living. From the wraparound porch to the rooftop boathouse lounge with toy storage below, covered two-story pavilion, and private beachfront fire table, every detail was designed to maximize the experience of living directly on the water. Inside, walls of glass frame endless lake views while the chef's kitchen features granite and quartz surfaces, custom cabinetry, built-in double ovens, and a walk-in pantry designed for both entertaining and everyday luxury. Multiple fireplaces throughout the home create warmth and intimacy across the expansive layout, while a Lutron Caséta lighting system and Sonos whole home audio bring effortless modern living to every space. The walk out lower level offers additional entertainment and lifestyle spaces including a wet bar with dual beverage coolers capable of storing 250+ bottles, gym, woodworking studio, and direct patio access to the lakefront setting beyond. Extensive shoreline protection is already in place, including a professionally engineered break wall designed for long-term erosion control, preserving both the integrity of the beach and the future of the property itself. Quietly luxurious and unapologetically rare, this is where Lake Erie living becomes something almost impossible to find, a true private beachfront estate in Cleveland. Additional opportunities may be available separately. Inquire for details.
