RARE FIND! Spacious home on almost 1 acre, in the desirable North Royalton school district! Upon entry, the welcoming foyer features a beautiful built-in, slate floor tile, and entrance from the attached 2-car garage. The foyer opens into the large, light-filled 26' x 17' family room addition perfect for entertaining. The hardwood floors, beamed ceiling, and stately woodburning fireplace (with custom mantle from the original North Royalton schoolhouse) create a cozy environment. The hardwood continues into the dining room with custom built-in, plus access to the rear covered porch to enjoy the serenity and nature of the sizable rear yard. From the dining room, pass the original kitchen on the way to the formal sitting/living room, all with the added convenience of 2 first floor bedrooms with full bathroom adjacent. Not into carpet? No problem, hardwood is underneath the carpet on the first floor! Head up to the second floor owner's suite with loft and full bathroom. The second floor oasis has loads of potential and easy access to closet and attic storage, and includes an oversized cedar closet. Downstairs, the basement has a sump pump (new motor 2023) and plumbing rough-in for future bath if desired. The garage offers pull-down attic storage, and out back you'll find the original garage outbuilding perfect for outdoor equipment. You won't want to miss this one!
