Welcome to Harvard Avenue, where classic architecture and thoughtful updates come together on one of Barberton's most charming streets.
This beautiful home is full of character and original craftsmanship, from the hardwood floors to the stunning woodwork in the doors, moldings and built-in bookshelves flanking the fireplace. Glass-paned French doors open from the living room to the formal dining room, which flows into a flexible space that can be used as an office, playroom, or creative corner. At the front of the home, the sunroom offers a peaceful view of the neighborhood, an ideal spot for reading, relaxing, or soaking in the day.
The kitchen features a classic butler's pantry and opens to a cheerful nook that could be used as a breakfast area or functional mudroom. Step outside to enjoy the back deck, a small but private yard space and a detached garage that has private access from a quite little alley way.
This home may be listed as a 3 bedroom, but there is a finished bonus room (with closets) that could be used as a 4th bedroom, or whatever your heart's desire.
Some recent updates include the roof, soffits and gutters, upgraded electrical panel, some interior paint, and new flooring in several areas. Modern improvements that blend seamlessly with the home's historic appeal. Seller is providing a 1 year home warranty through Old Republic Home Protection.
If you're drawn to homes with warmth and charm, this one's for you!
