Property Description
Stonework, steep slate roofs and half-timbering introduce interiors rich in original detail: hand-carved woodwork, decorative ironwork, stained glass signed in Paris, and period fixtures. A defining feature is the built-in Skinner pipe organ, designed into the house during construction.
Beyond the formal entertaining rooms and paneled library, the residence offers a variety of living spaces that reflect both the grandeur and everyday rhythms of the original household. A butler's pantry with original plate warmer, separate service areas, multiple staircases and a third-floor dance hall reveal a house designed for both family life and entertaining. A veranda, sleeping porch and small kitchen porch connect the residence to its grounds.
A gated, winding drive leads to the home, with its subterranean four-car tandem garage, workbench and bath. The estate also includes a historic guest house, garden/summer house, a 36' x 48' pole barn built in 1982, and a smaller utility building. Mature trees, broad lawns, a pond and river frontage shape its private setting. Just minutes from Tiffin's historic downtown, The Hermitage offers access to a vibrant small city named one of Ohio Magazine's 2026-2027 Best Hometowns. Local highlights include Heidelberg University, Tiffin University and the historic Ritz Theatre. Columbus is approximately 90 miles away, with Findlay, Toledo and Cleveland also within reach; nearby Seneca County Airport serves general aviation.
Celebrating its centennial in 2026, The Hermitage offers a distinctive opportunity for its next steward.
