IN THE NEWS


The Wall Street Journal selected 2680 Grandin Place as its House of the Day--introducing this Hyde Park showplace to subscribers and readers around the world. With home photos featured throughout, the WSJ article reflects on past homeowners and their appreciation for the character of the house that was their family home for more than 50 years.
​
English Traditions, an arbiter of  good taste, called 2680 Grandin Place one of the hottest houses on the Cincinnati MLS. The purveyor of fine European antiques wrote: "This beautiful Hyde Park home...boasts beautiful views and grand rooms. The exposed beam ceiling in the living room paired with original hardwood floors throughout creates an unmatched charm that makes this estate stand out from the rest."

Cincinnati Business Courier wrote: "This one-of-a-kind house would be hard to replicate - original construction dates back to before the turn of the 20th century...The original carriage house rooms and proportions on the first floor have been maintained, resulting in the most grand entertaining space possible." 

Cincy Chic featured 2680 Grandin Place as its listing of the week, ooh-ing and aah-ing over its remarkable features: "Over 5,000 square feet! Wooden beamed ceilings (11), Italian marble floors, Versailles patterned parquet wood floors, grand entertaining space! First floor master suite, walkout finished lower level, brick patios. Extra large rooms, very special one-of-a-kind!" 


FORMER CARRIAGE HOUSE OFFERS GRACIOUS LIVING

​
Stepping into the grand entry hall, it’s hard to imagine that this home began its life as a shelter for horse-drawn carriages. The ceiling soars to 19’ at its peak, Italian marble covers the floors, and a sweeping staircase descends from the second floor, creating an elegant and welcoming first impression.

Solid wood French doors lead to a magnificent living room with a wood-beamed ceiling, parquet floors in the Versailles fashion, a central fireplace, and wide glass doors that open onto a balcony that stretches across the back of the house and offers views that continue for miles. At 38’ in length, the oversized living room proudly showcases its former life. It is here that carriages were once stored.

The 11.5’ beamed ceiling and parquet floors continue into the dining room—a large, elegant room with generous wall space and built-in display cases ideal for the collector.

An attractive library/family room is picture postcard perfect. Lined with built-in bookcases, it has served as a cozy room for informal entertaining, as well as a place for quiet contemplation, enjoying a good book, and working from home.

The first floor wing, an addition completed in 1970, includes the primary bedroom suite with a full updated bathroom, large closet, walk-out to a balcony, and finished lower level with 700 sq. ft. of living space and doors opening onto a brick patio and fenced garden.

The roomy kitchen is beautifully updated, and includes a breakfast room and counter seating.

Upstairs bedrooms are spacious and light-filled with sitting areas and hardwood floors.

Outside, patterned-brick terraces offer delightful areas for outdoor living and entertaining.
​
This exquisite former carriage house, converted to a family home in the 1950s, now encompasses more than 5,000 sq. ft., as well as an enchanting history in which carriages once filled the first floor, horse stalls lined the lower level, and a hay loft occupied the upper floor—with hay bales hauled through the window above the front door on an elaborate pulley system.
