Along one of the Central West End’s most enchanting boulevards stands a residence where past and present dance in perfect harmony. Designed in 1895 by Barnett, Haynes & Barnett — the visionaries behind the Cathedral Basilica — this masterpiece is more than a home; it is living art, alive with history and romance. A sweeping tiger oak staircase and jeweled stained glass greet you at the door, casting a spell of timeless elegance. At its heart, a reimagined chef’s kitchen shimmers with Calacatta gold marble, a grand walnut island, and a butler’s pantry — a space where gatherings feel both intimate and extraordinary. Everywhere, historic craftsmanship and modern comfort blend seamlessly. Intricate woodwork, glowing stained glass, and storied details whisper of another era, while fresh renovations make the home as effortless as it is breathtaking. Spanning over 10,000 square feet, it offers seven bedrooms, marble-clad baths, and a full third-floor apartment with sunlit spaces, its own luxury kitchen, and spa-inspired baths — ideal for extended family or a private retreat. A personal elevator adds to luxury and ease of everyday living. Beyond a new three-car garage, a carriage house with two independent apartments adds versatility and possibility. 4341 Westminster is where history is treasured, memories are born, and life unfolds with uncommon grandeur — all set within the tree-lined charm of Cathedral Square, moments from Euclid’s vibrant shops, Forest Park, universities, and hospitals.
