$5.9M lakefront mansion in Bay Village is ‘one of a kind’: House of the Week

BAY VILLAGE, Ohio — If you’re in the market for a trophy property on Lake Erie, 30708 Lake Road deserves your attention.

“This lakefront property is one of a kind with sweeping lake and city views from nearly every room,” says Howard Hanna agent Joann Musbach of the Kristen Eiermann Real Estate Group. “Filled with natural light and beautifully appointed throughout, this home provides an abundance of open, flowing space for entertaining on the main and lower levels.”

Listed at $5.9 million, the home offers 6 bedrooms and 8 bathrooms (6 full) in 8,955 sq. ft. plus an additional 4,000 sq. ft. in the finished lower level.

On the exterior, the home gives off French chateau vibes that continue into the foyer, living and dining rooms. There are coffered ceilings, stately columns, rustic light fixtures and a curved staircase. Next, head into the great room with soaring wood-beamed ceilings, a grand fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows that look out onto the lake. The adjoining eat-in kitchen is equipped with high-end appliances, granite counters, a prep island and plenty of cabinet space. The office overlooks the lake, making it an inspiring work-from-home environment. The primary suite is located on the first floor, too, and boasts more of those terrific views, a luxurious en suite and a large walk-in closet.

Four bedrooms, two jack and jill bathrooms and a large bonus room are located upstairs. The fully finished basement has everything you need including a large entertaining space with a bar and outdoor access, exercise room, home theater, full bath and the sixth bedroom with an en suite bath and walk-in closet.

But it’s the outdoor spaces that separate the home from the rest.

“The privacy in the back yard makes you feel like you are away at your own fabulous oasis with the saltwater pool, cabana with full bath and outdoor grilling,” says Musbach, the listing agent. “The heated boathouse with fully functioning kitchen and half bath can be enjoyed year-round and its rooftop deck is the perfect venue for watching July 4th fireworks along the lake.”

Indeed, the home offers multiple levels from which to enjoy the view. But the water isn’t just for looking at. A pier with a lift provides lake access for your kayak or jet ski. There’s even a lake-level garage to store them in.

“Truly all facets of this property make it one of the best along the lakeshore,” Musbach adds.
