Welcome to 979 Iona Ave! This well-maintained 3-bedroom, 2-full-bath ranch offers a flexible layout, plenty of usable living space, and an abundance of natural light throughout. The enclosed front porch is lined with windows, creating a bright and inviting space that could work well as a sitting area, reading room, or morning coffee spot. Inside, the home features original hardwood floors, spacious living and dining areas, and a kitchen with ample cabinetry, large windows, and attractive textured wall finishes that continue into the stairway for added character. The main level also includes two bedrooms and a full bathroom. The partially finished lower level expands the living space with a large family/rec room, additional bedroom space, a second full bathroom with a tiled walk-in shower, and a laundry area. The basement bathroom and laundry area feature durable epoxy pebble-stone flooring, adding a distinctive and practical finish to the space. Outside, you'll find a generous yard, paved driveway, and a large detached 2-car garage offering plenty of room for vehicles, storage, tools, or workshop space. Recent improvements include a new sump pump in 2023, a new garage roof in 2021, freshly painted interior, and deep-cleaned carpeting. Whether you're a first-time homebuyer looking for an affordable place to make your own or an investor searching for a property with immediate rental potential, 979 Iona offers plenty of possibilities. Conveniently located with easy access to I-76 and a short commute to the University of Akron, downtown Akron, shopping, dining, and other area amenities. Schedule your showing today!
