Our hosts are the Lady and Lord of the Manor, Anya and John Rudd. Delight in the Rudd’s recently completed magnificent transformation of a prized Cleveland Heights in-town estate! This exemplary project honors Cleveland heritage while demonstrating how an elaborate historic home can be brought forward into the 21st century.

Harcourt Manor commands a remarkable site atop Cedar Hill. It was designed by renowned Cleveland architect Frank Meade and is surrounded by a nearly two-acre landscape, completely reconceived. The Manor was built by Kermode Gill as his family residence, taking four years to construct. The Gill family were highly-regarded early builders of Cleveland, whose commissions included the Terminal Tower, the Federal Reserve Bank and the Hanna Building. The superlative craftsmanship of this rehabilitation project was recognized at the 2019 Cleveland Restoration Society’s Celebration of Preservation awards program.
