Property Description

Believe It or Not... There's a Lot to Love on Ripley! This charming 3-bedroom Akron ranch offers more than meets the eye, including a surprisingly large, private backyard on approximately 1/4 acre with a deep 175' lot! Inside, the welcoming living room features a working wood-burning fireplace/stove that adds character and serious warmth—the seller reports it can warm the entire home. A well-planned kitchen and 3 bedrooms complete the main floor for convenient one-floor living. The basement expands your options with an additional room, rec area, workshop, shower and plenty of storage. Valuable improvements include a new sump pump (8/2026), hot water tank (2024), windows (2020) and basement waterproofing (2017) with transferable warranty. Downspouts were replaced and connected to the street in 2017, and the backyard has its own drainage. USA Insulation was added to the attic and walls in 2010. Roof, furnace and central air were replaced in 2006. Now for one of the best surprises—the backyard! Private, quiet and spacious, it's made for enjoying the outdoors. Relax on the large covered rear porch overlooking the west-facing yard, a wonderful spot to unwind and enjoy the evening light. A large security light illuminates the backyard, and a storage shed provides additional space for lawn and garden equipment. First home, downsizing or simply looking for one-floor living with a great yard and bonus space? Come take a look. Seeing is believing on Ripley Ave!
