Address: 2557 Devils Backbone Rd., Green Township
Price: $535,000
These days, Green Township is on the up-and-up. From contemporary housing developments to brand-new upscale restaurants, this community of more than 60,000 has big plans for the future. Anyone looking to enjoy the new expansion while maintaining a sense of privacy and seclusion will find this home a perfect match.
Devils Backbone Road, named for its many hills, turns, and curves, winds its way through the woodiest parts of the west side, right up to this property. “It’s almost four acres of wooded privacy,” says Wayne Milam, Coldwell Banker Realty agent. “That’s the main draw. It’s a very unique home.”

The asymmetrical facade is made up of stone and wood siding, the natural materials helping the structure blend into the rest of the 3.75-acre property. Around the back of the home, a three-tiered deck grants a perfect view of the tree-covered lot, and the wooden stairs lead right into the outdoor entertainment space, complete with a firepit for the colder months.
The spacious interior continues incorporating wood and stone accents throughout. Both the basement and living room feature large, functional stone fireplaces that extend from the floor to the ceiling. As you might expect for a sylvan house like this, natural light is the name of the game. Broad, wood-framed windows line the walls of the common spaces and first-floor primary bedroom, large skylights spread across the ceilings in the kitchen and hallway, and the cushioned seating space at the bay window is a comfortable spot to watch the seasons pass by in comfort.

Though the rustic features and wooded property evoke cottagecore imagery, this home with its four bedrooms, three bathrooms, and 3,305 square feet is much roomier (and more contemporary) than your average cabin in the woods. The cathedral ceilings certainly add to that spacious feeling. From the primary suite’s walk-in closet to the double-doored pantry in the kitchen and the two-car garage, storage and living space are no issue here.
As another frigid Ohio winter looms, this home stands ready to welcome a new family into its cozy embrace. Don’t forget the firewood.
