3828 Clifton Ave Cincinnati OH 45220

Welcome to 3828 Clifton Ave in the sought after Clifton gaslight neighborhood.

This 5 bedroom, 3 1/2 bath gem of a house is sure to not only delight, but will also practically meet your needs for more space!

As you look at the house, there is a covered patio on the right. This area is easily reached by 2 sets of french doors in the great room or as you come up from the driveway.

From here you can see the greenhouse on the second floor that is wonderful to have especially in the winter months.

This house looks great no matter the season.

Pine trees and other old growth trees makes you feel like you've stepped back into a storybook setting.

Soon things will be in bloom and he grass will be green again like shown here.

It looks like a winter wonderland and is the perfect spot to gather for all your holiday celebrations.

This paver stone patio was added as another level for outdoor entertaining.

It adjoins the original covered terrace by way of the stone steps, shown on the right.

As you peek through the trees, you can see Rural Lane.

A custom railing flank the steps on the right leading to the paver terrace.

The owner took such pride and pleasure in the gardens, so full of bulbs and seasonal plants.

The covered terrace has ample space for dining and grilling.

The steps lead to the back door and entrance into the kitchen.

Shot from the driveway, you can see the 2 car garage, service door to the basement and steps to the backdoor.

The planting area is ideal for a burst of spring colors.

As you open the massive front door and step inside the tiled foyer, you'll notice a coat closet on the right for your guests' coats and a half bath on your right. Up 2 steps and you're in the grand entrance hall (12' x 21")

The hardwood floors, stucco walls and ceiling, leaded glass doors and sconces are just a few of the features that will capture your attention. The richness of the paneled mahogany walls and staircase is just another exquisite feature of this well loved home.

Atop the newel post sits the sentinel lion with his shield. He was a favorite feature of the children who grew up there.

From the hall on the right, you step into the large great room. The beamed ceiling and fireplace with insert makes this a warm and welcoming space to gather.

On either side of the fireplace are french doors leading to the covered terrace. The bay windows in the front and triple windows in the back also let in lots of natural light.

You'll appreciate the herringbone pattern in the hardwood floors and built in bookcases. This room is flexible as a reading room by day or place to watch tv in the evening. It measures 17 x 31.

These leaded glass, double French doors give the office privacy when closed, yet still let the light in from the hall.

The open door from the office leads to the kitchen and there's also a closet in this room to the right.

The light filled office is the perfect place to work from home.

The leaded glass doors lead to the large dining room.

Once inside you'll notice the fireplace flanked by windows and again, the same beautiful hardwood floors are in this room too.

The main fireplace used in the house was in the great room so mainly became more decorative.

This was taken as you enter the dining room from the butler's pantry.

With the doors closed you can enjoy a private dinner party or open them up to the entrance hall and great room beyond.

Another shot of the regal lion and front door in the background.

As you head up the stairs there is a large landing

On the landing is a leaded window with some stained glass features.

The mahogany wood trim and balusters is carried up to the second floor landing.

At the top of the stairs is a large hall with arched opening and ionic columns

The doors shown served as great storage for linens.

Entering the primary bedroom with ensuite bathroom, you'll again appreciate the light and high ceilings.

The bay window makes this a wonderful room. All window treatments stay.

There is plenty of closet space behind the mirrored doors and more beyond the cased opening.

Behind the door is the linen closet and as you continue to the left you enter the last of the bedrooms which shares this bathroom.

The large primary bathroom has a walk in shower and separate tub.

This bedroom is 17' by 11' and located at the back of the house.

This bedroom is at the top of the steps, opposite the primary bedroom. Although it has a fireplace, it was not used.

The door leads to the jack and jill bathroom.

This jack and jill bathroom serves the 2 bedrooms on the left side of the house. The honeycomb tile and pedestal original sink gives this bathroom a classic look.

A closer look at the floor tile in the bathroom

The door for this bedroom opens to the bathroom.

As you exit the bedroom, you cross a hall and open the door to the greenhouse.

Taken from the bedroom on the third floor, you get a peek into the bathroom. Also on the third floor is a sitting room, and plenty of storage as well.

Pictures that follow show the architectural details as seen in this sconce in the dining room.

The mantel in the great room repeats details found in other elements of the house.

The dining room chandelier is simple, but elegant.

The hand hammered iron front door handle is another testament to the craftmanship throughout.

You can enjoy the view from this sweet little window on the third floor.

The stone work above the front door and coachlights create an unforgettable first impression.

Here's an up close look at the original light that hangs in the stairwell. This along with so many other well preserved features date back to when the house was built in 1876.

Shown here is the epic battle for the crown (depicted on the sconces) between the lion and the unicorn. The lion did indeed win securing his position in the house. This story was recounted by the owner to many who knew her.

Wall sconces in the great entrance hall.

To the left as you enter the house, there is the perfect alcove for the guest closet and full length mirror.

As you enter the kitchen from the backdoor, you will sense that many delicious meals have been prepared here, and for a large family! The counter bar (with 4 stools) though is where you can enjoy a quick breakfast or lunch.

Looking back towards the backdoor is the pantry on the right.

Entering the kitchen from the hall or office shows how the kitchen is configured. Bring your ideas should you decide it's time for an update!

Walking from the kitchen to the dining room, you'll pass through the butler's pantry with 2 pantry closets on the right.

The built in ice chest and cupboard is reminiscent of a bygone era but still so pretty!

"Let's open the door to possibilities together!"
