Property Description
Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this well-maintained ranch offers the perfect blend of comfort, charm, and peace of mind. With 1,028 sq. ft. of move-in ready living space on the main level, this home feels welcoming the moment you step inside. Original hardwood floors add warmth and character, while the thoughtful layout includes two comfortable bedrooms with the flexibility to add a third if desired, plus two full bathrooms. The spacious kitchen is designed for everyday use, featuring solid wood cabinetry and a large pantry for plenty of storage. Downstairs, the partially finished basement provides a versatile second living space ideal for a cozy rec room, home office, or gathering spot for friends and family. Relax and unwind in the enclosed three-season sun porch or enjoy outdoor living on the concrete patio. A one car attached garage adds convenience, and recent updates such as new LVP flooring in the main bathroom, a new metal roof, and a waterproofed basement with battery backup sump pump and transferrable warranty offer lasting value and convenience. Ideally located near downtown Ravenna and Kent, Kent State University, NEOMED, the University of Akron, major roadways, and the PARTA bus line, this home offers both tranquility and easy access to everything you need. A wonderful opportunity to settle into a home that has been lovingly cared for and ready for its next chapter.
