1924 Firestone Park Colonial with Natural Woodwork and a Finished Third Floor — $129,900

The woodwork is the first thing. In a house built in 1924, that original wood trim either survives or it doesn't, and here it does. That's what you're getting with this Firestone Park Colonial — 100 years of woodwork still intact, which takes real restraint from everyone who's owned it since.

The house is 1,395 square feet spread across what amounts to three full floors. Main level has the living room, dining room, and a kitchen that was updated in 2022 with white cabinets, new countertops, and a tile backsplash. It's a clean, updated kitchen that works. There's a half bath on the main floor too.

Second floor has three bedrooms and one full bath. The bathroom has been updated recently. Three bedrooms on a single floor in a house this size means they're not large, but they're real rooms.

Then there's the third floor, finished out as a fourth bedroom. That's the move that makes this house interesting to more than one kind of buyer. You could use it as a bedroom, a home office, a separate space for someone who needs it. It's up there, it's finished, and it has enough ceiling to be livable.

The mechanical side of the house is in decent shape. Furnace and central air were replaced in 2021. Roof was replaced in 2014. The basement has been waterproofed. Vinyl replacement windows throughout. Kitchen updated in 2022. That's a meaningful amount of work done in the last decade, which matters in a house this age.

Paint is fresh throughout, which usually means the previous owners were getting it ready to sell, but it also means you walk in to a clean slate.

Firestone Park is an established Akron neighborhood. The house is a few blocks from Firestone Park itself, the actual park. At $129,900 for four bedrooms, a finished third floor, and woodwork that's survived a century, you're paying for something real.
