Step into timeless craftsmanship at Ravenna’s 228 Lawrence Street — a character-filled home built by P.L. Frank in 1930 and lovingly preserved with many original details intact. Offering 1,671 square feet, 4 bedrooms, and 2.5 bathrooms, this charming residence blends historic elegance with everyday functionality.
From the large covered front porch to the beautiful original woodwork and built-ins with leaded glass doors, the home showcases craftsmanship rarely found today. The spacious living room features a gas log fireplace and stunning wood-beamed/coffered ceilings, while dual staircases add to the home’s distinctive architectural appeal. Hardwood floors are believed to be beneath the carpeting, offering even more potential to enhance the home’s timeless beauty.
Additional highlights include an eat-in kitchen, formal dining area, first-floor office/den, waterproofed full basement with full bathroom, concrete patio, and concrete driveway. Situated on a desirable corner lot, the property also features a detached 2-car garage plus a detached 3-car garage — providing an impressive total of 5 garage bays.
Conveniently located near downtown Ravenna and just minutes from downtown Kent, Kent State University, Northeast Ohio Medical University, and major roadways, this one-of-a-kind home offers classic charm, generous space, and an unbeatable location.
