Cozy, Chef-Ready Retreat on Leavitt Road

Welcome to 3294 Leavitt Road, a beautiful fully furnished 3-bedroom, 2-bathroom home designed for comfort and convenience. We've gone the extra mile to provide an experience that feels like a true home away from home, with amenities far beyond your standard rental.

Outdoor Enjoyment: Grill, Fire Pit, beautiful yard with lots of wildlife, and massive Trailer-Friendly Parking / Driveway
Step outside to enjoy our massive and pretty landscaped backyard!
It’s the perfect spot to relax, grill, eat, and play some outdoor games.
You'll find a grill and outdoor dining area for cookouts, plus a fantastic outdoor fire pit with seating for evening relaxation under the stars.

For those traveling with gear, we offer exceptional parking: guests have access to two private garages, and a massive driveway that is ideal for parking long trailers, boats, or RVs. Fishermen and outdoor enthusiasts will find this especially convenient!

Culinary Delight: The Chef's Kitchen:
If you love to cook, you'll adore our fully stocked chef's kitchen! Forget the sparse cabinets of a typical VRBO—ours is equipped as though it were our own home. You'll find everything you need, from a set of high quality knife and knife bar, food storage containers, new appliances (with air fryer function oven) and essential cooking tools to ample dishware and quality pots and pans. we also have a dual coffee machine (k cup and standard pot in one, and provide a complimentary set of K Cups (and cream and sugar) for your morning coffee. There is even a community pantry that guests can use or add to if desired!

The kitchen features a convenient pass-through window that connects directly to the upstairs living room. This design allows the chef to easily socialize, watch the 65-inch smart TV, or keep an eye on family games happening around the coffee table while chopping veggies and preparing meals.

Comfortable Sleeping & Stylish Baths:
This home comfortably sleeps a family or group with flexible arrangements:
Upstairs Bedrooms (2): Each room features a plush queen-sized bed, a dresser, and spacious closets for all your belongings.
Downstairs Bedroom (1): This room is perfect for kids or extra guests, offering a twin bed with an additional pull-out twin trundle bed, plus space for clothes. it also features a office desk and chair for taking calls or working remotely if needed.
Both of our two full bathrooms have been recently and stylishly renovated with new fixtures and finishes (just like the rest of the house!). Fresh linens and essential toiletries are provided.

Entertainment & Extra Space:
Need to spread out? We've got you covered:
Upstairs Living Room: The main gathering space boasts a large 65-inch smart TV and comfortable seating.
Downstairs Basement: A finished basement offers a great secondary spot for relaxing, complete with a cozy sectional couch and another flat screen TV.

Finally, there is a poker table / gaming table for family or friendly gaming (and many board games in the ottoman near the sofa!)


Rachel and I look forward to hosting you and yours soon!

Thanks so much for staying at The First Folly!

We bought our first fixer-upper for our first property in Ohio 5 years ago, and have fallen in-love with home renovation and hospitality ever since. We love to take something old and forgotten and turn it into something new and cherished again. We have worked here, lived here, and made memories here. We love this home, and Lorain, and we hope you will love it just as much as we did!
