Property Description & Video
49 S 3rd Street, Akron, PAVideo Tour of 49 S 3rd Street, Akron, PA.
Flexibility abounds in this beautifully maintained brick rancher with fresh paint, new carpet and versatile spaces designed to fit your lifestyle. The former one-car garage has been transformed into a truly finished, climate-controlled room with glass sliders and new carpet which is currently used as the 3rd bedroom. It can be a flexible living space-or easily convert it back to a garage when desired. Inside, the main level features solid hardwood and LVP flooring. The welcoming living room overlooks the front yard and leads to an eat-in kitchen and a sunken den/sunroom with view of the backyard retreat. The kitchen and main-level full bathroom are exceptionally well maintained and ready for your personal style. Two well-sized bedrooms are positioned at the end of the hallway. Beyond the den/sunroom is an additional room, currently a workshop with backdoor to yard, offering ideal space for a mudroom/drop zone, pet area or storage. Surrounded by vinyl fencing, the backyard features multi-level decking and a pergola as well as sheds for storage. A separate outside entrance from the side of the home provides convenient access to the large, finished lower level. This bonus level expands all possibilities with a family room, fitness/theater/rec room, a kitchenette with LVP flooring, sink, white cabinetry and new counters (ready for a range/oven and refrigerator). A newer full bathroom, laundry with new sink and additional finished rooms complete this bonus level. Outside, enjoy nearly a quarter-acre (0.24a) of completely fenced backyard with multiple decks, storage, a shade pergola and garden beds surrounded by shade trees. The covered front porch completes this updated Akron boro home, offering tons of versatility and multiple outdoor spaces to enjoy. You are going to want to see this one!
