Northwest Dayton just added another strong sale to its growing list of 2025 wins. The renovated home at 2537 Ravenwood Avenue has officially closed for $174,950 after just 19 days on market, signaling continued demand for updated, move-in-ready homes in the Hillcrest and Forest Park area.
The home sits on a quiet dead-end street tucked between Hillcrest Avenue and Philadelphia Drive — a pocket long known for stability, mature trees, and convenient access to the Dayton Metro Library Northwest Branch and other nearby amenities.

Modern Updates and Classic Comfort
With over 1,700+ sq ft of usable living space including the finished basement, this home blends charm and modern function. Refinished hardwood floors, a gas fireplace, and a bright open living room set the tone.

The kitchen has been fully updated with more than $40,000 in improvements, including butcher block counters, stainless appliances, stylish backsplash, and a modern hood vent.

Finished Basement, Two-Car Garage, and a Private Rear Deck
The finished basement adds valuable bonus space — ideal for a family room, office, or home gym. A 2-car detached garage and private rear deck offer suburban-style amenities that continue to attract buyers.
