About this home
Your own private wooded retreat, right in the heart of Akron! Tucked away on 3.1 acres in the Nob Hill neighborhood, this unique home offers the best of both worlds—peaceful, nature-filled surroundings with the convenience of city living. Set back from the road and surrounded by mature trees, the home feels like a secluded oasis. One of the home's most special features is the beautiful sunroom, where walls of windows bring the outdoors in and offer a front-row seat to the changing seasons. With warm wood accents, new carpeting, and direct access to the expansive deck overlooking the woods, it's the perfect spot to enjoy your morning coffee, curl up with a good book, or watch nature unfold around you. Step outside to enjoy the peaceful surroundings, entertain friends, or unwind at the end of the day. Inside, the spacious living room features a cozy fireplace, while the main level also includes a dining room and kitchen. Wood floors add warmth and character throughout much of the first floor. Two of the home's four bedrooms are on the main level, along with a full bath. All three rooms have been freshly painted. Upstairs, you'll find two additional bedrooms, including the primary with a walk-in closet. The upstairs full bath features a unique layout with a shared shower room and two separate toilet and sink areas, one directly accessible from the primary bedroom. The finished basement offers a recreation room with a second fireplace. An attached two-car garage adds convenience. Recent updates include roof, gutters, water heater, and dishwasher (2026), plus refrigerator (2025). And while you'll feel miles away from the hustle and bustle, you're less than 10 minutes from downtown Akron, with easy access to the University of Akron, area hospitals, and nearby Metro Parks. Lovingly cared for by the same owners since 1980, this peaceful wooded haven has been professionally cleaned and is ready for its next chapter. Come experience the tranquility for yourself!
