1362 Village Drive

Welcome to convenient one-floor living in north Akron’s desirable Mediterranean Village, situated on a promontory in the Big Bend area of the Cuyahoga River valley and offering ready access to hiking, biking, and kayaking in the Summit County Metroparks, on the Ohio-Erie Canal towpath trail, and in the Cuyahoga Valley National Park. Mediterranean Village is a zero lot-line community of separate houses on small lots with small gardens, and low-cost HOA managed grounds maintenance services including grass, garden borders, leaf removal, and snow removal. This move-in ready one story 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom home features a separate glass-doored home office, open plan living spaces, a separate laundry room with pantry closet, a deck, a 2-car garage, and a full high-ceilinged basement providing ample space for storage and expanded indoor living/recreation areas. The main bedroom features a beautifully remodeled private ensuite bathroom and large walk-in closet with a decorative cedar wood trim. The living areas and kitchen (and the ensuite bathroom) feature high vaulted ceilings with skylights, and an open-sided gas fireplace provides a warm ambiance. Large windows let in a generous amount of natural light and views of the natural surroundings. The house includes many recent improvements. The central HVAC system includes a high-efficiency furnace (2014) and hot water heater (2019), and a new AC (2026). Location is key – and this location combines the ideal mix of outdoor recreation, urban culture and food and entertainment, and essential amenities. The vibrant downtown districts of Akron and Cuyahoga Falls are very nearby (less than 5 miles), as is the University of Akron, sports venues, museums, and historical sites. Medical clinics and practices, grocery stores, household goods, home improvement centers, garden centers, and a large and diverse assortment of restaurants are all a short drive away. For so many reasons this is a convenient and lovely place to make a home!
