About this property

Lakewood by Lake Erie Historic Victorian 5 Bed 2.5 Bath Trendy Hip 3500 sq ft

Walk to the Lake & many restaurants. Easy access to Rock n Roll Hall of Fame. Close to many Marina’s & Beaches. Ideally located in a hip neighborhood on one of the most fashionable streets in Lakewood Oh. Wonderful front porch with rocking chairs & an outdoor couch & swing. Back yard deck with large fenced in yard. Pet friendly - We accept one well behaved dog with pet fee sorry no cats due to allergies. REVIEWS: We have many positive reviews on other sites as well. This renovated yet still authentic Victorian 3500 sq foot home with unique features is beautiful yet comfortable. Large sunny tiled kitchen with stainless appliances. Larger bedrooms. The 3rd floor suite is 900 sq ft with two bedrooms and a family room with skylights. Two families could easily share this space due to the private nature of the 3rd floor suite. Authentic Jacobean dining room table seats 10 with the leaves open. Off street parking. Two claw foot tubs with shower over. Guests love our wonderful water pressure. We do have a shower chair and special steps available for anyone needing extra assistance getting in or out of the tub. Just ask. Walk to many cute shoppes and restaurants. Lakewood Park's Solstice steps on Lake Erie is only 1 mole away. Edgewater Beach & Perkins Beach is 3 miles away. Very safe neighborhood. Close to various Yacht clubs and Marinas. 10 min from downtown Cleveland, a short walk to Lake Erie. 20 min to University Circle/ Cleveland Clinic/ the Musuems / Rock n Roll Hall of Fame / Casino /Browns Stadium.
Real Bone China to eat on & everything you need in the kitchen to make a large meal. Each bedroom has it's own theme. The 3rd fl bedrooms have high ceilings and 3 sky lights and feel less Victorian in case you have friends or family who prefer a more modern feel. There is a family room on the 3rd fl with flat screen smart TV. The 2 fl Master has authentic design Victorian Bradbury & Bradbury wall paper complete with a romantic yet comfortable brass bed and gold leaf high boy. -note-there are 2 units on this property. Each has 5 bedrooms. Each is 3500 sq ft. Completely separate. Thick walls so you would never even notice if someone was staying next door. Perfect for bridal groups where the grooms family can stay on one side and the brides on the other side. Depending on availability you could be booked into either the west of east unit and would know ahead of time. This is a no-smoking home. Pls smoke outside. Note: though we can accomodate up to 10 our basic nightly rate covers the first 4 guests. If you have more than 4 people its 50/per night per person more. Vrbo will charge based on the number of overnight guests and you can see that charge before booking. This keeps it fair for everyone. Smaller groups shouldnt have to pay the same price as a large group. Convenient parking for 2 cars in the driveway. Any extra cars can park on the street in out front. NOTE: This is a 125 yr old house our EV charging for electric cars is available during Spring, Fall, & Winter. Pls ask for access.

Lovely home! We stayed for a weekend as our daughter was getting married and wanted a place to stay that would make accommodate our gang! It was comfortable and plenty of room for the girls to get ready for the wedding. The decor was beautiful, as you can the chandelier in the dinning room. The owner was very communicative, answered all my crazy messages even though she was in Paris!!! This was conveniant to everything. I definitely recommend!!!

Check in was easy. Beds were comfortable. It was warm and humid for our July stay, so a/c struggled to keep 3rd floor cool, but we only used one room on that floor and with bedroom door closed, it was cool. All other areas were cool and comfortable. It was very neat to stay in an older home like this. Brought back lots of memories. We would stay here again!

Great location, very nice and helpful owner, terrible condition of the house and yard. One bathroom was usable but has a jury rigged shower. Basement bathroom was a hard pass. The half bath is outside of the house, through the kitchen door with no AC. Wiring was scary and likely not up to code. Worst of all, the house stinks like mold and dirt and rot.

Charming house near a ton of local bars restaurants

We stayed here (4 adults) for a family get away. The charming house was built in 1900 and has been kept up well. Susan is a great communicator and made sure we were comfortable and happy. There are so many bars and restaurants within walking distance. Beds were comfortable and the overall feel of the place was really nice.

Neat historic property!

We came to town for a wedding in Lakewood. This house was super easy to get to everything we needed - including the wedding, Lake Erie, shopping, and some activities to keep the teens entertained. The house is super clean and still has the fun quirks of an old Victorian. Susan is easily the most easily accessible and gracious host I’ve ever had the privilege of renting from.

Plenty of room! Air conditioners kept living room and bedrooms comfortable. Kitchen had everything we needed. Extremely creaky stairs in this 130-year-old house — no one is going to climb them in the night without being heard!

Staying at the Lakewood Magical Victorian was like stepping into a world where elegance, history, and enchantment all coexist under one roof.When we read that this house was built in 1900 and lovingly preserved, we couldn’t wait to stay. The moment we walked in, we were greeted by the sparkle of a gorgeous crystal chandelier, casting rainbows over an eclectic collection of antiques.The home while Victorian at heart, was thoughtfully modernized to make everything feel inviting and livable. Our favorite was the red room, wrapped in authentic wallpaper, where the antique brass bed invited us to sleep like Victorian nobility. We half expected to wake up and find ourselves in a Dickens novel, lol.We were also charmed by the third floor, with its soaring ceilings and skylights—a bright, airy escape that feels more modern, yet still in tune with the home’s soul.And then there’s the laundry room, home to the second full bath and a cast-iron clawfoot tub.This isn’t just a house—it’s an experience, and a love letter to a bygone era with modern comfort and a touch of theatrical flair. Also thank you for tipping us off on that amazing Chocolatier on Detroit Ave. We can’t wait to return.

Big old home in great location, but in need of some care

Lot of potential with location, character of old home and size, but some definite shortcomings. Major problem is bathroom situation, neither bathroom is senior friendly with need to step into tall tub without any handles. Basement bathroom is really poor condition, need to spend some money and upgrade! Lastly needs a deep clean…

Wonderful, historical home!

This charming home was perfect for our stay in Lakewood. Our hosts made a few recommendations of places to visit, which proved to be perfect! We encountered one slight problem, but it was resolved very quickly. The home was decorated in a style that complimented the age and history of the house. On the practical side, the AC worked great and all appliances were in good working order. On the fun-vacation side, both the front porch and the back porch were comfortable and a great place to sip our morning tea and raise a glass of wine in the evening. Our group of ladies, several of us of a "certain age" had no issues with the furnishings, tub or stairs. Please be aware, the house is over 120 years old, and is a bit creaky, but it has its own energy! We would return to this property again if we come back to Cleveland.

Not what expected.

The house could be charming. But the dilapidated bathrooms fixed and uncleanliness are hard to overlook. Tiles taped to the wall in the upstairs bath and a basement bathroom that was dirty are not charming or trendy features. The kitchen was unorganized and the towel closet on the second floor looked like everything was just stuffed in. I do not recommend this home. For the cost, I expected much more.

Fabulous Victorian Rental!!

Would def return as my friends loved the furnishings. Super clean. The 2 claw foot tubs each with a shower over them were great. Having that extra half bath on the 1st floor was a bonus. One of our friends had recent knee surgery & the host already had a shower chair as well as sturdy stairs next to the cast iron tub to be able to maneuver. Great water pressure. Accommodating host. I personally enjoyed the tall ceilings with skylights in my 3rd Fl bedroom. We had enough room to all stretch out. Window AC units worked great. Beaches on Lake Erie are nearby. I'm a workout buff and the Lakewood Y is a new building with top of the line equipment & an Olympic Pool only 7 min walk away. Listened to the host suggestions and saw a Great Lake Erie Sunset from Lakewood Parks Solstice Steps. As a hosp administrator I felt Uber comfortable & appreciative of modern touches like usb ports for cell phones. We were pleasantly surprised that the antique Jacobean dining table leaves easily expanded to accommodate our fun potluck dinner. Will return in the fall to see the fall leaves in the Metroparks along Rocky River.
