Welcome to 481 Letchworth, a charming Colonial located in the highly sought-after Merriman Hills neighborhood of Northwest Akron. Known for its stately homes and beautifully maintained lawns, Merriman Hills offers a quiet suburban feel with close proximity to city amenities. This home is filled with character, featuring solid wood doors, arched doorways, wide woodwork, and refinished hardwood floors throughout much of the main level and the upstairs bath. With nearly 1,600 square feet of living space, it includes three generous bedrooms, 1.5 baths, and a flexible layout ideal for both everyday living and entertaining. The main level boasts an inviting living room with a wood-burning fireplace, a formal dining room, a galley-style eat-in kitchen, a convenient half bath, and a cozy family room. A den with vaulted wood-beamed ceilings, built-ins, and sliding glass doors opens to the spacious backyard, creating the perfect retreat. Upstairs, you'll find three comfortable bedrooms and a full bath. Outdoor living is just as appealing, with a large front porch, back patio, detached two-car garage, and mature landscaping that adds privacy and charm. The basement provides additional storage and laundry space. HVAC is under 5 years old. HWT 2022.
