A refined GEM - temporarily at a reduced price! Newly renovated, this sophisticated apartment offers historic character and thoughtfully executed modern updates.
You'll love the charming kitchen, rich oak trim, generous room proportions, and abundance of natural light. This second-floor walk-up apartment has new carpet and paint and is in a very clean and well-maintained building. The spacious rooms have lots of storage: besides the eat-in kitchen, you'll enjoy a living room with entrance hall, a bathroom, two bedrooms and a delightful enclosed back porch (perfect for plants and a cafe table). The basement has new washer and dryer appliances for tenant use (paid for by the owners), bike storage, and a lockable personal storage room for each unit. A refrigerator, gas stove and microwave are provided.
You'll be well located, within walking distance of Highland Square's library, grocery, coffee shops and restaurants, as well as bus lines and post office. And also close to downtown, University of Akron, the Towpath hiking trail, and area hospitals. It's a great street - beautiful, quiet, and neighborly, with ample on-street parking. A community garden is practically next door. You will love this warmly livable, locally-owned home.
Monthly rent amount is now only $1,040. A security deposit of $1330 will be required.
