About This Home

Charming 3-bedroom, 1.5-bath single-family home on 5 quiet acres in Aurora, lightly furnished and move-in ready. Hardwood floors throughout, stone fireplace anchoring the living room, bright sunroom for morning coffee, and a full unfinished basement that makes storage easy. Eat-in kitchen with a full appliance suite including a new refrigerator and dishwasher. Two-car attached garage and an exterior cellar door round out the property. The home includes thoughtful accessibility features: a wheelchair platform lift between the garage and main level, a modified bathroom with a walk-in shower and multiple grab bars, a sliding barn door at the bathroom entry, and a lift-recline chair in the living room. Even without these needs, the layout is comfortable and well-suited to single-level living. Aurora is a great place to land. The city sits in the Aurora City School District (Aurora High School is rated 9/10 by GreatSchools), with the schools, parks, and a strong community feel that draw families to the area. Sunny Lake Park is minutes away for walking trails and the playground; Aurora Premium Outlets, restaurants, and grocery are a short drive; and you have easy access to OH-43, I-480, and I-271 about 30 minutes to either Cleveland or Akron. Quiet rural-residential setting, but you're not far from anything.
