Darling? Check. Chagrin Schools? It sure is. This South Russell ranch has all the charm you're looking for - plus a few surprises that make it live larger than life. Set on a quiet, park-like acre, it's the kind of home where you can spread out, breathe easy, and still wave to the neighbors from the cutest covered front porch EVER. Inside it's open and welcoming, with brand-new flooring flowing through the living room, dining room, kitchen, hallways, and office. The living room is generous in size and anchored by a wood-burning fireplace - the perfect backdrop for Netflix binges, holiday stockings, or impromptu game nights. The oversized, open concept kitchen and dining room is ready for everything from pancake breakfasts to Thanksgiving feasts, with plenty of counter space and storage. It spills right into a three-season room that feels like a bonus wing - sunny, airy, and overlooking a peaceful, natural backyard. When it's time to take the party outside, you've got a paver patio just waiting for string lights, s'mores, and bonfire evenings. Three bedrooms and 1.5 bathrooms keep daily living practical, while the large laundry room makes adulting feel less painful. Need work-from-home space? The office - with built-ins - has you covered, or even use it as a 4th bedroom. Recent updates include a new hot water tank, fresh interior paint in 2025 (yes, even the garage), and tree removal to open up the lot. Not just your average ranch - it's space to breathe, room to grow, and a porch that's begging for coffee, a good book and all the little rituals that make a house feel like home.
