Property Description

Welcome to this beautifully preserved Lakewood Colonial with original hardwood floors, crown molding and natural woodwork. The first floor features a large, updated kitchen with ample granite countertop space, plenty of white soft-close cabinets, a double-basin sink, a dual-fuel range with a double oven and a Bosch dishwasher. All appliances stay. The large living room showcases built-in cabinets and an efficient wood-burning fireplace insert with a blower fan that can warm the house on chilly nights. The second floor contains three nice-sized bedrooms and a multi-purpose sunroom. A large second floor bathroom has been beautifully updated with a tiled walk-in shower and a spa-like solarium room containing a Jacuzzi jetted tub. The full basement contains an extra bath and shower, washer and dryer and plenty of storage space. Throughout the home, hot-water radiators provide that gentle, even warmth that is so characteristic of older homes, with a boiler installed in 2012. Attic and wall insulation plus double pane vinyl replacement windows make the house energy efficient. New electrical panels, siding, and a replacement roof were completed in 2008, offering peace of mind while allowing the home's original character to remain the star. Outside, the beautiful landscape creates a peaceful setting and the gated backyard contains various edibles that include an herb garden, mature fig trees, grape vines, strawberry, blackberry and raspberry patches. And when you're ready to venture out, Lakewood is right at your doorstep. Close to Lake Erie, Lakewood Park and, of course, the city's much-loved fireworks which can be watched from the home. This is a home with history, warmth, and personality - thoughtfully cared for and updated without losing the qualities that made it special in the first place. A wonderful place to settle in, make it your own, and enjoy all that Lakewood has to offer.
