You don't get this every day in New Franklin. An updated 4 bedroom (or 3 beds and a 1st-floor office), 3 full baths home, on a one-acre flat lot w/attached two car garage, and a 3-seasons room complete with a hot tub overlooking the back yard. The main living area has three levels, all above grade. The 1st level includes the front foyer, office/bedroom, a modern bath w/shower, and a family room with beamed ceilings and built-in bookshelves that walk out to the 3-seasons room or the garage. Level 2 includes a large 15x15 living room with newer carpet that allows family and friends to congregate comfortably. Just around the corner is an ample kitchen with ceramic floors, great cupboard space, an action center, a breakfast bar for two, and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen is open to the dining room with wood floors and a slider out to the rear deck. The kitchen is also only two stairs to the family room garage access. Back to the front of the house, a short staircase opens up to a 10x7 landing that, to the right, offers a cubby door to a vast storage space over the living room. Straight on is another tasteful modern bath w/shower, and to the left, 3 more bedrooms, each with wood floors. The 13x13 owner's suite offers 2 closets and a third private newly remodeled bath w/shower and heated bidet. That's not all! The 18 course basement offers 12' foot high ceilings an L'shaped 400 sqft rec room, a big storage closet with three more closets inside, and an enormous utility room with laundry, double sink, a basement shower (a fourth shower!!) that is more than just a concrete floor with a shower head above, and lots of space for storage or a workshop. All of this, plus there is a charming front porch and 3 areas to entertain and a firepit out back. New Franklin offers the most green space in Summit County, large lots, great neighbors, and a sense of community. If you've been waiting for a special home to come along, your wait is over!

When the sellers purchased this Jackson Township home just a few years ago, they weren't quite prepared for the job ahead, but as the realization of everything that was needed set in, these folks hunkered down and got busy. They spared little expense and gave liberally of their time and energy. The result is, from top to bottom, a vastly different home than the one they purchased. Starting outside with new shutters, a new front door, a new sewer line from the street to the house, and a brand new roof, gutters and downspouts. Inside, every inch painted, the kitchen was gutted and rebuilt with new soft-close drawers and cabinets with underneath lighting, hard surface countertops, sink and fixtures, lighting, a breakfast nook, flooring, and all new Samsung appliances. Every inch of the home has new flooring, vinyl upstairs, and carpet downstairs. Both bathrooms received significant makeovers, the furnace and A.C. are new, as is the tankless water heater. All lighting fixtures have been replaced, the garage door opener has been replaced, the room in the basement was transformed into a true master, the basement was completely redone from floor to ceiling, the frontside windows are all new, and even the laundry/storage room and 3-seasons room received makeovers. Upstairs, the current formal dining area also works just as well as a primary living room, with the basement rec room then acting as a secondary living space/family room. The basement is a true walk-out via the 3-seasons room or the garage. With this beautiful home, you are getting a practically new, excellent quality home, in a fantastic area, and great school district, with every amenity imaginable nearby. You can't go wrong with 321 Stuart St. Come see for yourself!

Don't sleep on 474 Riverview, sleep in it. At just a glance, you will surely miss all that it has to offer. This bi-level is unique in so many ways. Evidence of its uniqueness begins on the exterior, where you'll notice straight away the newer concrete retaining wall and oversized patio. The drive has been widened by more than double its original size for more cars or a large motorhome. The concrete drive extends around the right side of the house in the form of sidewalks leading to a rear lower-level addition and another to the fantastic 4-seasons room built just beyond. Then there's the giant 14x13 shed in back that looks like a separate home all its own. All magnificently maintained. Not to mention a new roof was added in 2018 w/40 yr dimensional shingles on the home and shed. Upon entry to the foyer, you'll notice that the upper main level of the home, while lovely, is mostly what you'd expect of a bi-level residence, except for the large kitchen featuring next-level cupboard space, and a half-wall with a 2 to 3-seat breakfast bar area. The kitchen also includes newer stainless steel appliances and ceramic tile flooring. The rest of the neutral-colored main level is finished off by an above-average-sized living room that could very easily act as a dining room, a main bath, and two good-sized bedrooms, one of which connects privately to the main level bath. It's downstairs that you see what truly makes this home different. At the bottom of the stairs is the garage to the right, a laundry/utility room straight ahead, and to your left is a hallway leading to an office or 3rd bedroom. This is where the addition inserts itself, first with a sitting room that gives way to a family room, both of which can be utilized in any number of ways, only limited by your imagination. There's a full bath and an additional sizable bedroom, and finally, sliders to a wonderful 4-seasons room addition with 11-foot ceilings and Nature Stone floors. See the supplements for more!

This home is back on the market by no fault of the seller. Twice buyers who were (are) in love with the home have had to be released from the contract for unforeseen financing issues unrelated to the condo.
For downsizers who don't really want to sacrifice size, the contently single, the retirees, the downtown professional, and just about everyone who likes nice things, THIS. IS. IT. A gorgeous condo with little to no exterior maintenance to concern yourself with, a reserve fund for the unexpected replacement of certain big-ticket items, a peaceful oasis of a community, and steps away from Akron's vibrant Downtown, the route of The Akron Marathon, walking trails, restaurants, bus lines, grocery shopping, hospitals, fitness centers, higher education, and more. But it's the living space you'll truly appreciate.
You'll enter an impressive wide-open main living area with extra high cathedral ceilings, a cozy, ventless, gas, switch-controlled fireplace, and built-in speakers throughout. To your left is a fantastic modern kitchen with granite countertops, a more than ample amount of oak cabinetry including a double pantry, KitchenAid stainless steel appliances, including a side-by-side fridge with freezer drawer below, gas cooktop range, and a built-in microwave and oven. Upstairs is a magnificent 25x11 loft with a wet bar, 1/2 bath, and a bonus room/closet space for whatever the creative homeowner can envision. At the bottom of the loft staircase, you'll find access to the private patio out back. To the right of the stairs is the hallway leading first to the 2 car-attached garage, then to the main floor laundry and utility room, followed by the primary bathroom, a lovely bedroom w./double closet and built-in speakers, and finally the master bedroom with walk-in California closet, speakers and ensuite bath with walk-in shower. This perfect retreat was built-in 2000 and has barely aged a day. It is clean, well maintained, and move-in ready. Come see for yourself.
