    What's special

    Welcome to this GRAND home on 1.55 acres in the heart of charming Oberlin! Here’s a unique opportunity to own a stately Georgian brick colonial w/ 4 bedrooms & 2 1/2 bath, plus a separate rear house (the “cottage”) built in 1940 that has 1 bedroom & 1 full bath. This house is filled with character and is fabulous for entertaining! The expansive and elegant living room (could be the dining room) features a fireplace, tall windows and doors that open to a large sandstone patio overlooking the private, wooded backyard, which is a tranquil oasis, perfect for relaxation and outdoor gatherings. The bright eat-in kitchen with a high ceiling has skylights and plenty of space for a table and seating group, plus doors that open up to 2 decks. Intricate woodwork is featured throughout the house, including 9”+ crown molding. The foyer has a lovely half bath. Head up the exceptionally wide center-hall staircase to 4 bedrooms and 2 full baths, including a primary suite. The roof & skylights were replaced in August! The cottage is equipped w/ a full kitchen; most recently it has been a source of income as a vacation rental w/ a serene setting, perfect for visitors to Oberlin College, which is just steps away. A 2-car garage is attached to the cottage. One year home warranty included. Oberlin's rich cultural scene and vibrant community make this a desirable place to call home!
