About This Home

As of September 2025

Bungalow beauty that will take your breath away! So much bigger than it looks – this home has almost 2,000 finished square feet for you to enjoy. The heart of this home is the large, updated kitchen and dining area that boasts plentiful custom maple cabinets, endless countertops for meal prep and dinner buffets, tons of lighting with the under-cabinet lights and flush mount LED lighting, and room for 6 or more to dine plus space for a coffee bar, heirloom hutch or a workstation. The adjacent living room has ample space for everyone to gather and watch the game on the big screen. First floor owner’s suite and plus another bedroom and a full bath with a tub/shower combination and vanity with a granite countertop complete the first floor. There are two additional nicely sized bedrooms with custom built-in drawers and cabinets for storage and an updated half bath on the second floor. The fully finished basement is amazing! This huge family room is big enough to be divided into zones for recreation, gaming, office space, play space or an exercise area. There is also a room currently used for storage but could easily be finished for even more livable space. The laundry room includes a sink and room for storage and supplies. Outside awaits a large concrete patio perfect for outdoor entertaining, a kiddie pool, basketball hoop and more. The play set and sandbox can stay for the kids to enjoy. Partially fenced backyard with room for fun and gardening, too. There is lots to love in this house, including the updates: roof 2015, furnace and central air 2014, hot water tank 2018, electrical panel 2014, basement waterproofing and sump pump 2014. Great location near schools, shopping, dining, parks, UH hospital, downtown Elyria, and easy highway access to Route 2 and the turnpike. Welcome to your new home!
