103 Castle Boulevard

Love, care and good taste are the hallmarks of this stately, 5-bedroom brick colonial sitting perfectly on a double lot in West Akron’s prestigious Castle Park neighborhood. Brimming with loads of original character and the compliment of carefully chosen updates, the home will be one you’ll want to make yours for a very long time. From the curb you’ll see the landscaping blooming, a newer roof and many architectural elements. Inside, the quality of the build will be evident the moment you step in. You’ll find exquisite millwork and beautiful finishes throughout. The kitchen has tall oak cabinets, stainless steel appliances, including a new dishwasher, and has a counter long enough for the cook and a couple of helpers, too! The main floor includes a generous living room with fireplace, a dining room and a library/study that can easily double as a home office. One of the five bedrooms is a hard-to-find, updated owner’s suite with a gorgeous ensuite bath. Another of the bedrooms was converted into a convenient dressing room. The outside of the home was very important to the owner. She knocked herself out with all of the things needed to make a perfectly lovely yard. Spring is awakening all sorts of perennial plants and greenery. Out back is a patio, and the yard is fully-fenced. You will have wonderful outdoor parties here. Improvements include new attic insulation, owner suite/master bedroom and bath renovation and attic dressing room, roof on the house and garage, exterior painting, plus 5 new ceiling fans, many new light fixtures throughout and a finished basement! If you favor a strong sense of community, the area offers so much including Stan Hywet Hall and Gardens, the annual Akron Art Expo at Hardesty Park, Portage Country Club, schools with strong curriculums and loads of special student and family services, and churches. People are out, walking, running, children are riding bikes and neighbors stop to say hello. You will not want to let this one get away!
