Welcome home to 498 Watson St. Akron OH 44305. Nestled in the heart of the iconic Goodyear Heights neighborhood, sits this 1919 built German-style colonial that has been remodeled from inside to out, bringing a modern touch to a timeless classic. When you walk into the foyer, notice the custom woodwork throughout the first level along with the high ceilings and SO much natural light beaming through all of the large, newly installed Polaris windows. Make your way into the kitchen that has truly been transformed with floor to ceiling custom built-ins and cabinetry, newer gas stove and refrigerator, granite countertops, and subway tile backsplash. Round the corner to the formal dining room featuring custom coffered ceilings and woodwork and imagine spending time around the table with friends and family. Enjoy cozying up together in the living room by the wood burning fireplace that features a brick raised hearth, more built-in shelves and woodwork, and easy TV install. Finishing off the main level is a step-down 4 seasons room that allows for extra living space, as well as a half bathroom for convenience! Move on upstairs to find the Master Bedroom with more custom woodwork and coffered ceilings, as well as 2 additional well-sized bedrooms and the full bathroom, which was also completely transformed with tile shower surround and flooring. Additional updates not mentioned above: new plumbing, some new electrical, whole house Sherwin Williams paint, and drylok painted basement. Call your agent today to set up an in-person tour and come see for yourself why 498 Watson St. Akron holds the keys to your heart and your new home!
