Escape to your very own slice of peace and quiet on this very nicely updated acreage on the blacktop just 5 miles east of Akron on Hwy 3. This home has undergone many upgrades in the past couple of years to include all new flooring and fresh paint on the main floor, but several hard wood floors remain. A bedroom on the main floor was eliminated to create a huge bathroom, complete with a jacuzzi tub and main floor laundry room. Also, a wall was eliminated in the living room making the living room area more open and turning the family room into the master bedroom, complete with doors and a wood fireplace. Basement has a family room and a new bedroom was created complete with an egress window. There are also connections for a washer and dryer down there as well. Nice deck on the outside for enjoying the fresh Fall air. Also, a very nice barn that has a steel roof for any animals you would like to have and it is 38X48. Previously used for horses. There is also a large Quonset to store additional vehicles or toys and that is 32X48. Storage shed included as well that is 12X20. Furnace only 1 year old, central air only a few years old, and roof and siding new in 2017. Septic new 2 years ago. Seller is related to the listing agent.
