Look no further; this is the home of your dreams! This beautifully maintained Colonial, nestled in a vibrant sidewalk neighborhood, awaits its perfect buyer. Curb appeal shines with stunning perennial gardens (recipient of the Akron Beautification Award for five years), a front porch adorned with columns, a breezeway that adds extra living space, and an attached two-car garage.
As you enter, you are welcomed by soothing colors, hardwood floors, and exquisite trim work. To the left, the inviting living room, anchored by a charming fireplace, beckons you to relax. To the right, the formal dining room bathes in natural light, setting the stage for memorable gatherings. The updated eat-in kitchen, featuring two windows allowing natural light, solid surface countertops, stainless steel appliances, a breakfast bar, recessed lighting, and custom cabinetry, is a culinary haven. A convenient half bath is located off the kitchen.
The three-season enclosed breezeway connects the main house to the garage, enriching your everyday living experience. No raindrops or snow while entering the home. The breezeway also provides access to the side deck . Upstairs, discover three spacious bedrooms, each boasting hardwood floors hidden beneath the carpet, and a beautifully remodeled custom bathroom. The finished lower level offers a cozy space for recreation, laundry, and abundant storage.
With updates including vinyl siding and windows, refinished hardwood floors, a deck, a waterproofed basement, a newer roof, gutters, glass block windows, a newer garage door, and renovated bathrooms, as well as a thoughtfully redesigned eat-in kitchen and air conditioning, this home truly stands out.
Embrace the opportunity to make this amazing, move-in-ready home yours today!
