About this home
In Shaker Heights, certain homes have a presence you feel before you even step inside. 2717 Leighton Road is one of them—a 1924 creation by acclaimed architect Philip L. Small, whose vision gave the city its most cherished landmarks, including Shaker Square. Known for blending architectural grace with the ease of modern living, Small designed this home to be as welcoming as it is distinguished.
Inside, over 5,100 square feet of living space unfolds across six bedrooms and four baths, each framed by original hardwood floors, finely crafted millwork, and generous natural light. The grand foyer flows effortlessly into formal living and dining rooms designed for entertaining. The kitchen, with its sunny breakfast area, keeps conversation close and mornings unhurried.
A glass-wrapped sunroom becomes a year-round sanctuary—ideal for Sunday brunch, evening reading, or quiet moments overlooking the gardens, in-ground pool, and greenhouse. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite offers a retreat all your own, while the additional bedrooms and third-floor rooms provide flexibility for guests, offices, or hobbies.
Outdoors, gather on the patio, tend to the greenhouse, or simply watch the seasons change in privacy. Parking is effortless with an attached 2-car garage plus a detached 3rd bay.
Location is unparalleled—minutes away from the scenic Shaker Lakes trails, the Nature Center, as well as the boutiques and dining of Shaker Square and the Van Aken District. World-class care at University Hospitals and Cleveland Clinic is also within easy reach.
Here, history is more than preserved—it’s lived. And now, it’s ready for you.
