A judge has again rejected an attempt by the owner of a Hunting Valley mansion to overturn the village’s decision to reject her plans to turn the house into six luxury condominiums.

The village’s planning and zoning commission in 2018 denied her request to deviate from the zoning laws, which requires at least 5 acres of property per home. A consultant said the renovations would increase traffic. “Plaintiffs interest in increasing the marketability of her property and/or its preservation do not render the Hunting Valley codified zoning ordinance as applied to her property unconstitutional,” Matia wrote. “While the Court is sympathetic to Mrs. Korey’s cause, this Court is bound to the law before it.”
Architect Philip Small designed Roundwood Manor for Oris and Mantis Van Sweringen in the mid-1920s as the brothers’ home and the nerve center of a real estate and railroad empire, which collapsed during the Depression. The brothers are perhaps best known today as the industrialists who built Shaker Heights and Terminal Tower in downtown Cleveland.
