You can’t miss this Colonial Revival-style home near Lake Galloway. The unique exterior accents may draw you inside, but it’s the newly remodeled kitchen that will keep guests hanging around.

4219 Forest Hills Dr. | 4 BD, 2 BA | Listing agent: Carly Cashman-Crespo with Keller Williams Realty Smart

If these walls could talk, they’d be telling us to kick back and relax. This Cleveland Heights home’s subdued shade of sage turns it into a serene oasis where the best evenings are spent on the screened-in patio.

1604 Sylvester Rd. | 3 BD, 2 BA | Listing agents: Paige Wagner + Emerson Garriott with Paige Wagner Homes Realty

No one does green better than Mother Nature — just use this mid-century modern home as proof. The floor-to-ceiling windows bring outdoor greenery in and make it part of the minimalistic space. Plus, we love the laundry room’s green + pink accent tiles.
