Listed for $485,000 by Sibcy Cline Realtors, the brick-and-frame home at 1394 Meadowlands Drive sits on an acre lot within the Meadowlands subdivision of Fairborn. Most of the property is surrounded by a wooden privacy fence creating the park-like backyard setting. Mature trees provide shade, and the multi-level deck has shady spots under trellis pergolas as well as a sunny deck with floral-accented koi pond.

Inside, the two-story home has a traditional, circular floor plan on the main level with four upstairs bedrooms and a flexible-space, finished basement with the about 3,288 square feet of living space.

The formal entry opens into a foyer with updated flooring that fills the foyer and continues down the hallway and into the kitchen and breakfast room.

Nestled into the corner near the spindled-accented staircase is a flexible space with a hardwood floor that is currently set up as a sitting area or library.
