About this home
Classic Oberlin charm! Built circa 1915, this distinctive home offers the craftsmanship and character that make Oberlin's older homes so special. Step inside and you'll find beautiful original natural woodwork, leaded glass windows and hardwood floors that have been preserved through the years. The inviting floor plan features a formal dining room with a charming window seat, a light-filled sunroom, and warm, comfortable living spaces. Enjoy relaxing on the covered front porch or entertaining on the large rear deck overlooking an exceptional .64-acre city lot—a rare find for an in-town property! Additional features include a newer roof, basement, gas hot-water heat and one-car garage. Located in the unique and historic community of Oberlin, internationally known as the home of Oberlin College and Conservatory and celebrated for its history, architecture, arts, music and charming college-town atmosphere. Convenient to downtown Oberlin, Tappan Square, shops, restaurants and cultural attractions. This isn't a newer home trying to recreate yesterday's craftsmanship—it's the real thing. If you appreciate the stone construction, original woodwork, leaded glass, hardwood floors and a home with genuine character, 300 East College Street deserves a closer look!
