Two-Story Sunroom Above Strouds Run

The approach unfolds along a quiet private drive, where the surrounding landscape gradually opens to wide views across rolling hills. Set back from the road and elevated along the ridge, the residence sits in near-complete stillness, with only the movement of trees and distant horizon lines shaping the first impression. The air carries a sense of separation from town, while remaining within easy reach of Athens. Arrival is informal and grounded, defined by space, privacy, and an immediate connection to the surrounding acreage.

The house is arranged to accommodate both scale and flexibility, with a two-level layout that prioritizes gathering and outlook. A large central living area anchors the main floor, where seating, dining, and circulation flow easily between zones. The two-story sunroom introduces vertical volume and natural light, acting as a transitional space between interior and landscape. Below, a fully finished lower level extends the footprint with an open-plan configuration, including a projector area and additional room for larger groups. Material choices remain straightforward and durable, supporting frequent use without formality.

Six bedrooms are distributed across the residence, configured with one king, four queen rooms, and one full bedroom. Four full bathrooms serve the layout, with a combination of private and shared access that allows for group stays without congestion. Sleeping areas are set apart from primary gathering zones, maintaining a degree of separation across both levels.

Outdoor living extends across multiple decks and patios, positioned to take advantage of the elevated setting. Mornings begin with open light across the ridge, while evenings settle into quieter tones as the landscape darkens beyond the tree line. A hot tub and sauna introduce a slower rhythm at the end of the day, while direct access to surrounding acreage allows for informal walking and exploration.

The residence sits adjacent to Strouds Run State Park, with trail access extending into a broader network of forests and rock formations characteristic of southeast Ohio. Court Street and central Athens remain approximately 15 minutes away, providing access to dining, cafés, and Ohio University.

This setting suits groups seeking space, privacy, and a flexible environment for gatherings, anchored by its position along a quiet ridge with uninterrupted views.
