COMING SOON! 8 Acres in Harlem Genoa Township
A Rare Mix of Nature and Luxury Over a Stream on 8 Wooded Acres
Lovingly envisioned and built by a California bridge engineer, this remarkable mid-century style home is a one-of-a-kind blend of thoughtful design and exceptional craftsmanship within an extraordinary natural setting. Tucked into 8 wooded acres in Westerville, the estate features over a half mile of groomed hiking trails, a three-stall horse barn with adjoining pasture area, and a picturesque stream that winds through the entire property—even under the home itself.
A dramatic, soaring entry surrounded by floor-to-ceiling windows sets the tone. Guests are greeted by a unique floating staircase with hand-wrought iron railing: a true conversation piece. The foyer area includes a wood-burning fireplace, a welcoming coffee station/wet bar, and a large walk-in coat closet. An expansive gourmet’s kitchen features a central cooking station surrounded by breathtaking views of the tree-lined surroundings.
The heart of the home is an incomparable 25' x 40' great room, highlighted by a cathedral ceiling with exposed beams—all in rare California redwood. It features brand-new solid oak flooring and walls of windows framing the peaceful woods and stream. It is a spectacular space for dining, relaxing, entertaining, or simply enjoying the beauty of the property from inside.
With 4 spacious bedrooms and 3½ baths, the thoughtful floor plan offers both privacy and gathering spaces. The main-level owners’ retreat features a multiple-stream shower, soaking tub, and large walk-in closet with laundry. A second lower-level bedroom affords the seclusion of its own en-suite bath. The powder room has a clever surprise: a shelving unit that doubles as a hidden door to storage and the back deck.
A cozy upstairs family room provides the perfect spot to curl up with a book, enjoy a movie, or simply unwind. When recently renovated, plumbing was installed for future wet bar. The upper level also includes a full bath, 2 bedrooms, and a den/gaming room.
The backyard deck is flanked by a winding patio of flagstones that were harvested onsite. �A lush landscape surrounds you as you relax, dine, enjoy a campfire, and entertain. The area is framed by multiple natural rock walls, carved out when the land was once used as a quarry. The gentle sounds of the stream provide a natural soundtrack. A screened-in gazebo in front of the house comfortably seats six, and includes a ceiling fan, lights, and outlets.
The civil engineering behind this home is as impressive as its beauty. The original owner incorporated elements designed to protect against erosion and high water, ensuring that the stream could remain one of the property’s most spectacular and endearing features.
A home with a story, a setting, and craftsmanship that simply cannot be replicated. 8 private wooded acres, groomed hiking trails, a barn and pasture, a remarkable mid-century design, and the peaceful presence of the stream come together to create something truly special.
Despite its private, wooded setting, convenience is close at hand—approximately 10 minutes to Uptown Westerville, 15 minutes to Polaris Parkway, 15–20 minutes to Sunbury, 15 minutes to the Silicon Heartland, 20–25 minutes to Downtown Columbus, and about 20 minutes to John Glenn International Airport.
