About 560 Malvern Rd

Welcome to your storybook retreat in the heart of Merriman Hills. Built in 1928, this timeless home is filled with character and warmth- featuring hardwood floors, a brick fireplace framed by built-ins, and a cozy sunroom bathed in natural light. The kitchen is both functional and stylish with newer recessed lighting and stainless-steel appliances, tile flooring and an eat-in area flanked with beautiful corner built-in shelving. A versatile, finished 3rd floor feels like a secret escape- offering more bright and airy space for work, play or rest. Even more living space in the basement rec room + 4th bedroom/office. Outside, the magic continues. Lush landscaping, charming brick driveway, new roof and gutters (2020), new front door, freshly power-washed exterior and paint on covered front porch/steps make for stunning curb appeal. The backyard is private and completely enclosed with wooden privacy fence. Located on a sidewalk-lined street in one of Akron's most beloved neighborhoods, Merriman Hills is known for its tree-canopied streets, historic homes, and a peaceful, well-established atmosphere.
