159 Jasmine is a cute cottage located on a quiet street within Lakeside Chautauqua; steps away from the lake and Ohio's Most Beautiful Mile; one block from Central Park, beach and downtown; and 20 min drive to Put-in-Bay ferries.
Its most distinctive feature is a large wrap around porch with a lake view and plenty of seating. The original cottage was built in 1878 and renovated in 2020/21. As part of the renovation, we enclosed the porch and added AC/heat for year-round comfort. Also important is that it has a downstairs bedroom (with king bed) and brand new master ensuite with easy step-in shower. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath with tub. The upstairs front bedroom has a queen bed. The upstairs back bedroom has a queen bed and twin bunk beds. The middle bedroom has a double. PLEASE NOTE: per Lakeside custom, guest bring their own towels and linens (sheets, pillow cases, blankets, etc.). Each upstairs bedroom has its own mini-split AC/heat unit. Downstairs is a newly renovated kitchen, dining room, living room and half bathroom. Living room has a queen sofa sleeper. The downstairs has central AC/heat. Laundry room has washer/dryer and food pantry. Tankless heater provides endless hot water.

About the host
Hosted by H Philip Stahl
Karen and Phil Stahl grew up in Bellevue Ohio and currently live in Huntsville Alabama. Karen is a retired 8th grade Family and Consumer Sciences teacher. Phil designs and builds space telescopes for NASA - including the Webb Space Telescope. We have three children and 4 grand-children (hoping for more). We like to travel the world – particularly Europe – yet feel deeply rooted to Ohio. Our families have been here since the 1800s and we and our children attended college here: Wittenberg, Ohio State, Miami, Wittenberg and Denison. When we lived in Connecticut, every summer we took our kids to ‘Family Camp’ at Camp Quinipet on Shelter Island. Now, we are looking forward to sharing Lakeside with our Grand-Children.
Why they chose this property
We fell in love with Lakeside several years ago and purchased Blue Jasmine at 140 Jasmine in 2017. When 159 Jasmine came available (across the street), we could not resist. It is very cute, has a great sitting porch. Its first floor bedroom is a convenience. And the first block of Jasmine is the best location in Lakeside - quite location close to the lake; close to Central Park with its play ground, putt-putt, shuffle board and band stand; close to downtown shopping, restaurants, ice cream and Orchestra Hall movie theater. But most important is the Lakeside Chautauqua with its organized activities and programs for all ages. See their website for details.
What makes this property unique
After buying 159 Jasmine, we completely renovated it. We literally ripped the middle out of the house and rebuilt the kitchen, added an en-suite to the primary bedroom, added a new upstairs bed room and full bath, and created a half bath and laundry.
