This classic, colonial home has been thoughtfully updated while its old-world charm remains intact. A covered, front porch opens into a cozy foyer and then into a large living room with fireplace and built ins along one wall. The extra-large dining room has original built in china cabinets, storage drawers and a window seat. The kitchen has newer appliances and there is a bonus room off of the kitchen that can be an eating nook, pantry or home office. A completely renovated full bathroom completes the first floor.
Upstairs on the second floor are three nice sized bedrooms and a second full bathroom. The third floor is completely finished and is perfect for an owner's suite.
Updates include laminate flooring in the dining room, up the stairs to the second floor, and in one bedroom. Most rooms are newly painted, the first-floor bathroom has been updated and redone, the stove and microwave were new in 2023. The dining room has custom Roman shades.
Other updates include a front door keypad, thermostat, ring doorbell and hot water heater (2025). Furnace 2020. Roof 2017. Flat roof 2023. Exterior siding repaired and painted. Lots of love and hard work have been put into this home in the past few years.
The back yard drops down and extends past the driveway and parking area. There's plenty of room for a patio, shed, gazebo, whatever you may desire!
Situated in the Highland Square neighborhood of Akron, this home is conveniently located near restaurants, shopping, schools, hospitals and main travel routes. Come have a look!
