About this home
Welcome to 162 Portage Dr - This beautifully maintained home perfectly blends original 1920s character with the modern updates today’s buyers love. Nestled in one of Akron’s most popular and walkable neighborhoods, this inviting colonial offers timeless style, flexible living spaces, and a backyard designed for relaxation and gardening. Step onto the welcoming front porch and into a charming foyer that sets the tone for the entire home. The foyer flows into a bright and cozy living room featuring gleaming wood flooring, a classic brick fireplace and two stunning stained-glass windows that add warmth and personality. French doors lead gracefully into the formal dining room, where a coffered ceiling and beautiful leaded-glass built-ins create an elegant space for gatherings and celebrations. The adjacent updated kitchen features stainless steel appliances, butcher-block counters, subway-tile backsplash, and direct access to the backyard—perfect for easy indoor-outdoor living. A convenient half bath off the foyer completes the first floor. Upstairs, the second floor offers three comfortable bedrooms and an updated full bath that combines old-world charm with modern convenience, including the original clawfoot tub and a separate step-in shower. The upper floor serves as a private retreat with a spacious fourth bedroom currently used as the primary suite, complete with a walk-in closet and a thoughtfully designed ensuite bath. The full lower level provides plenty of storage space, along with a dedicated laundry area. Outside, the large backyard is ideal for families and gardeners alike, featuring raised beds, a storage shed, a cozy back porch, and partial fencing for privacy. All of this in a highly desirable location—just moments from Highland Square’s popular shops, restaurants, parks, and community events. This home brings together charm, convenience, and modern comfort in a truly special way.
